The beauty of YouTube is that anyone can be a movie maker; the curse is that anyone can be a movie maker. The chances of these super unpopular clips turning into the new Gangnam Style are slim to none – after all, they’re unpopular for a reason.
“ford focus”, 10 Views
Two minutes and 22 seconds of a guy showing off the engine of his Ford Focus, with a constant, unsettling buzzing sound in the background. The car honks and revs at one point – when the dude gets around to shooting the car’s interior, though, there's no one sitting in the driver's seat. The only logical explanation for this is that the Ford Focus is possessed by the spirit of the dark lord. It looks sweet doin’ it, though. Totally cherry. Takeaway Quote: "Bzzz."
“Online Aristocrat Pokies Slot Big Red Game; Emulator Free Play”, 36 Views
One minute, 33 seconds of some broad playing an Australian-themed video poker game. With each mindless spin of the wheel, you hear the inane droning of a didgeridoo and see rapidly moving, pixelated images of dingos and crocodiles. According to the poor soul who uploaded this video, “I play this game a lot but it never seems to pay very much.” Which adds further insult to injury. Takeaway Quote: ”Whooooaaaooooo” – Didgeridoo

She doles out a portion for all, but things get crazy when Duke starts eating more than his share... “Duke! Let Bear have some!” Takeaway Quote: "This looks good...it looks good enough for humans to eat!"
“message for the haters!”, 12 Views

Arms crossed, she doles out some sage advice to her countless haters: “Grow up and get a pair, because no one gives a crap if you’re gonna dislike videos, or you’re gonna hate on people.” Takeaway Quote: "It’s the internet...no one cares."
“my favorite book in the world!!!!!”, 7 Views
Four minutes, 12 seconds of a sixth grader rambling, the first minute spent explaining that she has other videos you should “go watch now.” While the title of the video is singular, not plural, said sixth grader actually has multiple favorite books, which she describes in inarticulate detail. Takeaway Quote: "I’m just gonna show you the back of the book so you can pause it and read it, ‘cause I don’t really have a lot of time to read all the backs."

“pokemon white 2 random matchup #1”, 5 Views
Three minutes, three seconds of what the description claims is YouTube user bakufun1’s “first ever random matchup. he had 368 wins and zangoose never got touched once.” Ahem.

“cooking supper 001.MOV”, 9 Views
One minute, 44 seconds of a nondescript white guy uh, cooking supper. What’s he makin’? Great question – glad you asked. Well, he’s makin’ salad, fried yellow squash, ham, and cornbread. “Yup...that’s what we’re havin’.” Takeaway Quote: "Are you cooking supper?" “Yeah. Yeah, I am.”
