      I almost wrote this post that way but decided that was too general, but you’re right of course.

      I love scrolling through the nuthouse that is YouTube comments, it’s always so unhinged.

    It’s the year 1.7×10106. The heat death of the universe is imminent. Still listening to this banger. Modern music sucks - I was born in the wrong generation. Like if you agree.

      The “born at the wrong time” is such a lame comment and I see it a lot on good old music posts. Do they not understand they live in a time where they can listen to the old music AND the new stuff? Good chance if they lived in that last generation they would have been complaining about how all the Smashing Pumpkins or Pink Floyd stuff is awful and wish they’d been jamming out with Gershwin.

        Also, the music from the past we listen to now is only the best of the best of what the 90s or whatever had to offer. There was just as much bad music then, but that is long forgotten. What remains are just the absolute bangers. As a kid I wanted to find some more music similar to the Beatles, and decided the easiest way was to look at the charts from the mid to late 60s and listen to that. Most of it was atrocious.

          Yo, you best stop talking about my 90s music like it’s old. Save that for the 70s and earlier music. You know the stuff that happened before I was born.

        For more on the above phenomenon, watch the movie Midnight In Paris.

        When I was a kid I loved listening to Jimi Hendrix. a lot. I listened to everything I could. For a while I wondered what it must have been like to see Jimi play Monterey. Then I discovered Prince. It turns out I loved Prince even more than I ever loved Jimi Hendrix. It also turns out comparing the two isn’t really fair.

      And the weird thing is this was a comment on a Lawrence Welk song.

    Even worse are the comments on old songs, any culture, any language. You’ll always have comments like “I am 13 and I love this music! Modern music bad!”. It really sucks the joy out of listening to those songs.

      Does it tho?

      Really?

      Why are you so mentally invested in that song and other people’s opinions of it?

        Some people are irrationally angry at everything that anyone young does or likes, because deep down it reminds them of their own mortality and the short span of time we are actually allocated to live life.

      Plenty of opposites too.

      “I am 47 and discovered this thanks to my kids. Not all old people reject modern music”

        The chorus of: “I’m <insert some usually made up age> and <some asinine comment>”

        I find more obnoxious than the “who’s watching/listening in <bla blah>” comments.

        Broadly speaking I don’t bother looking at comments on youtube, the signal to noise ratio is on the floor.

    I hate those comments… I can’t say they’re the most useless garbage out there, but they’re damned close.

                The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus),[3] sometimes referred to as the duck-billed platypus,[4] is a semiaquatic, egg-laying mammal endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. The platypus is the sole living representative or monotypic taxon of its family Ornithorhynchidae and genus Ornithorhynchus, though a number of related species appear in the fossil record.

                Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. Like other monotremes, the platypus senses prey in cloudy water through electrolocation. It is one of the few species of venomous mammals, as the male platypus has a spur on the hind foot that delivers an extremely painful venom.

    Prolly bots right? I really don’t think there are so many actual people in the world who think about commenting that.

    I bet 50 these comments will disappear when LLMs become cheap af to run en masse so bots can be more realistic and varied.
