This is getting boring. Who is this knob? People sitting in their bedrooms offering their “commentary” on things has got to be one of the biggest wastes of space on YouTube.

Yes. And we all have an opinion on it and comment on forums about it.

Tony Wilson once said “I don’t care what they say about me as long as they are talking about me”

I suppose I never comment on Loose Women so why should I comment on this, it has approximately the same amount and level of content. Oops.

Pales in comparison to the scandal currently rocking the world of progressive metal.

complex mathematic analysis has revealed that it has actually been static for nearly 8 months, and in some cases actually regressed.

I’ve missed most of this but it does seem to be a rather sad, bitter lot of dirty laundry being aired with more than one person at fault. 

What I find more remarkable is, after looking up the British Chapman guitars, is the price! I’ve had custom builds cost a grand less with change, entirely to my spec. Small wonder they’ve not taken off.

It's like watching a bunch of bald men fighting over a comb ... YouTube wars generate views, subscribers and money for the content providers. This will therefore run and run and run ............................

The words "delusions of grandeur" spring in to mind when reading about all this non-drama.

That genuinely made me laugh. 

I’ve had no idea what any of the previous mentions of this kerfuffle have been about but since I have a million really dull things I should be doing, I actually sat and watched that video. It’s a soap opera world and drama turns pages and gets clicks. Especially when it’s personal and bitter.

I'm not interested in the actual content of this, but I do find it intriguing in terms of what it shows about the direction internet "reportage" is going. It seems to me that you've got people wanting to create journalistic content but without any of the rigour and responsibility that journalism is supposed to carry with it. And then they all hoot with dismay if their target either threatens legal action, or if the consequences of their output start to affect their real lives, livelihoods etc. It's fine for what they do to affect their target's real life or livelihood however. 

If you want to do edgy or even satirical journalism, then you have to be prepared for the consequences and so maybe it's not something that you should do as a hobby from your spare room.....

I'm looking forward to the next ten pages. It's been a slow week for the Fretboard.
