I second this. It's crass and unnecessary and just makes me look at it.. i dunno... differently.

And because of that -- and only that -- I would never see myself sharing this with people or using it to send video playlists to people aside from some anonymous web forum.



That's a pretty shitty reason not to share this with people.


And the bad pun award goes to jh3!

Seriously, though, I'm not one to be easily offended -- and I think fake umbrage in our society has been taken to a ridiculous level (especially in politics). But the reason I like good design is because when something is well designed it gives me a sense of calm and peace. Having "I eat text and shit out whatever" is just very bad design to me.

And it's offensive enough that why would I risk offending somebody? Why do I care enough about the site to take on that risk?


I'm not one to be easily offended either, but I am also less likely to share this with my 12 year old daughter who really likes to explore youtube. Of course all she plays is that bieber kid, some kid named cody and lady gaga.


I understand. It also seems to be misleading according to some comments. I will think it through. Thank you.


Changed the tag line. Thanks.
