I am moving toward never watching anything that is evaluated by someone else. This thought comes from my dipping into the offerings of You Tube. The algorithm they use is constantly offering me things the processor thinks I would like.
I get a lot of chances to watch clips that are labelled “hilarious”. Out of curiosity I have clicked on a few and find that to me they are mediocre at best. Or the ones that are supposed to have me rolling on the floor or falling out of my chair. Not so much. Humor is a very personal touch and some people don’t like to be touched.
One of my problems with the video platform is that you have to listen so long to find out if it is worth it. In a book I can glance ahead and get a feel but a visual recording makes you wait for it.
The good side of it is there is a lot to explore. There is certainly no need to be bored.
