Youtube... It's like an awkward clueless friend.

Have you ever have a friend, coworker or suchlike give you a gift you kind of accepted but were really confused about, and they got it because they thought it was "your thing" and it pretty much says they don't know a lick about you?  

Every time I go to Youtube, it's like such a friend.  I dislike the "Recommended for You" feature because you watch one thing - you look up something weird from a website or you get nostalgic about an old tv show you used to like or just sort of half-remember from childhood and want to see if someone's ripped an ep, or something else... 

I went there tonight deliberately looking up some of the works of James Rolfe (The Angry Video Game nerd) - one of his "Board James" features because it wasn't loading on the native Cinemassacre site and sometimes his stuff loads better on Youtube.  I see "Recommended" for me all these... Bible-prophecy videos.  How such and such that's going on right now feeds into the End Times and I was just going "Huh?" 

Then, I remembered in an aha! moment that a few days ago, I was reading an article on Cracked.com about (non-lethal) extremist-oddballs "4 Extremists We Cannot Take Seriously" - something like that.  I watched an embedded video where a "prophecy-expert" type was analyzing demonic messages supposedly hidden in a mayonaise commercial.  

Really.  

Look it up on Cracked.  It was one of their April 1st articles, but it was about people whom we don't know if they're pranking or taking things seriously.  And, yes, the analysis of the commercial (done completely straight-faced) has to be seen to be believed.  On the plus side, I found out that my real name (happened to be shared by the protagonist of the commercial) is apparently an anagram for "Satan."  

What I'm left wondering about... if clicking on crazy mayo-commercial demons guy for a laugh got me recommends of "End Times" videos on Youtube, why wasn't I flooded with videos about Lepurachauns and Fairies?  I watched the embedded video on Cracked of that guy, too... the guy who talks about how to see the Fair Folk.   Nope, just "Bible" End-Timey stuff.  

Eh. Clicking Youtube videos on comedy websites can be a dangerous business.
