Wait!!! I didn't ask for this - by inuke

Namaste Everyone,
And welcome back to 'whatever this is?!!' (Seriously, If I am gonna continue I might need a name for this series. So please help me out with some name for this series). It was a wonderful Sunday for me. I got up at late in afternoon, but I quickly got over my personal things to do. And I had plenty of time get to my favorite thing to do. Which is watching a movie or Anime or some series online.

But as soon as I opened my browser, It landed on the homepage 'YOUTUBE'. If you don't know what youtube is, Wait who I am kidding. You all know youtube as a source of entertainment but I realized something today. Which, I wished I should have noticed before. Youtube is a black-hole. Now, don't get me wrong. I love youtube. It has lot of creative contents, And it helps a lot of people with educational stuff and many livelihood depends on it. That being said, Youtube in my opinion is a black-hole which a strong gravitational force that It pulls time. Your precious time gets pulled into.

I wanted to watch an anime series (which is very interesting and I am saving the review for later posts). Now don't dis me for being a hypocrite, who isn't. I wanted to spend (or many may consider this as a waste) my time watching that anime. But the youtube didn't let me. I was trying to get to the episode, meanwhile the recommended section was showing a fight scene of another anime with a lot of view. I went on to watch that and another one and after that few more. I kept watching to a point when I heard a voice inside my head 'That's right, you are watching someone else watching a trailer of new anime series'. It was a reaction video. I closed the browser and went to talk to my friends.

I was clicking on the video which clearly is a click-bait. To be honest, I would click on the video even if the video is titled as 'THIS IS A CLICKBAIT' just out of curiosity. My recent experiments told me that I get distracted very easily and even losses time because of it. Remember my story about me accidentally watching the same top 10 list again, That holds up true for many other incident. Being a movie lover, I subscribed to many movie channel and also critics. I also love motivational talks show. But when I went on with my recommended video list it was mostly troll videos, try not to laugh (Which in my honest opinions is nobody laughs at), People melting stuffs, People cutting stuffs with knife, cutting stuff with German knife, Sharpest chef knifes, Koreans reacting to Indian food, Indian reacting to Nepalis song, Nepalis reacts back to South Indian songs and so on and so forth. Ahhhhh!!!! The voice in my head said 'Great use of time there buddy. Next time when you use the phrase "But, I don't have time for that", I am gonna dump all this crap on your mind.' (DMX- Where the hood at in background).

Now again I am not saying anything against the 'Youtube' or the type of the content that I have mentioned. But none of that was needed by me, I know for sure that I am never gonna need a Chinese Knife to cut a plastic doll. Youtube is an amazing platform a tool to be used, But today I felt like I am not handling the tool well. I was supposed to go look for some specific content and nothing more. So this is me promising that 'I will use the Youtube only for things of my interest and I will never again watch another reaction video'. Again, I have nothing against the reaction videos or the knife videos, thats stuff is not for me. If I ever want to know the reaction of foreigner to the Indian food, I would reach out to them in the discord. I am not against any of the videos, In fact, some of the videos are more amazing. I mean I have never seen a knife at 1000C cutting through plastics thing which resembles a part of male reproductive system.

Thats all for today. See you again with another episode of 'Dear God, I really need to put a name on this thing'. If you like my post please upvote, and for more of such revelation subscribe to my blog (follow me on steemit - @inuke). And if you really really like my post. Hit resteem button :-).
