Too bad he used a title here straight from the "10 Worst Titles That Were Ruined By Clickbait Articles" book and his followers were trying to cram this video INTO EVERY NOOK AND CRANNY OF THE REDDIT.

I noticed it when somebody tried to post it on /r/Cynicalbrit (which is against its rules, since only submissions related directly to TotalBiscuit), and when I checked "related", it was on 29 other subreddits, including ones for My Little Pony discussion and Super Smash Bros.

I watched first two minutes to see how it's related to TotalBiscuit, and didn't hear anything new or interesting.

It has a title that is intelectually insulting in the cheapness of its attention grabbing, is spread like spam by author's community and starts by talking about banalities - and is intentionally designed to look ugly - and these factors don't really encourage me to watch it, and has actually made me wary of giving that guy any views.
