          If you're watching something in the same room with a person, you can tell what a person's favorite part is by directly observing how they react, e.g. how hard they laugh, how loud they shout, etc.

          You obviously can't do that with internet clips, so instead of ambiguously saying, "My favorite part of this clip is when Katt Williams is talking to his kid about the cereal." You just quote the clip. "n***a they damn sure aint up here, them mutha ****in insurgents dun come in my house and stole..."

          Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

          Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                      Yeah this doesn't bother me much. I've been watching some Sanford and Son episodes (hopefully the account doesn't go bye bye) and that's what most of the commentators do. I don't mind it too much. I also had no idea the woman that played Willona Woods on GOOD TIMES did a guest appearance on that show.

                      Interesting stuff.

                          The one with Willona is one of my favorite episodes. Then again most of the stuff from that season was good.

                              It's more annoying when people repeat lines of a movie you are watching in person right after they happen, as if they think you didn't just hear it yourself.

                                  What I don't understand is why sitcoms have a laughtrack during "funny" moments. If the part is funny, we will laugh. We don't need something to tell us when we're supposed to laugh.

                                      I think with that, laughter is a bit contageous. Some TV shows need the help, others don't.

                                      As far as my OP, ok I admit it, it bugs the **** outta me. I don't need someone retyping (or if in the room, repeating) a funny line.
