5 reasons why I love youtube.com

I often wondered how people can sit in front of a computer for hours on end looking at "stuff". I can check email, look at myspace for a sec or even facebook, maybe browse around some discussion boards for kicks, but that was about it...until I discovered the endless possibilities of youtube. So here's a list of reasons why I love youtube.com

1.) It provides hours of entertainment!
I have recently been introduced (not personally) to comedians Brian Reagan and Jeff Dunham. Jeff is my favorite of the two. When I am feeling bored, or there's nothing good on tv, I'll enter their names on the search and find clip after clip of their stand up routines. I love laughing out loud while at home by myself, it makes it even funnier, I think.
Here's a few gems:
At Starbucks, a small is tall.
I want MUFFINS!!!
Jeff Dunham and Peanut. This one will make you snort out your nose, it's so funny - fah fah!
Brian Reagan's experience with the ER.
Funny Cats.
Tommy Boy comes to Halo.

2.) It is a great go to source for tutorials.
My hair has reached to such a long length, and it's getting hot outside. I'm growing it to donate, so I can't cut it just yet. I'm tired of the pony tail so I did a search for demos of how to create different up dos. I found lots of great ideas and have already used them myself.
I have also found videos of makeup techniques.

3.) It shows me just what my husband is up to while on the road.
Seraph has a youtube channel and they periodically post videos they take while traveling. I love being able to see the places they visit and watch the goofy ways they pass the time in the truck.
This was a personal favorite of mine.

4.) It works for nostalgic purposes.
There was some good television back in the 80s and 90s. From Masters of the Universe to the Cajun Man on SNL, you can view just about any of your favorite tv moments.
One of my favorite icons from the 80s was Shera, Princess of Power. Take a look.

5.) It is the central network of stupid people.
There are a few people in my life that, honestly, I'm surprised they're still alive. Daredevils and extreme sportsmen/women (and clumsy people) have plagued youtube with their videos of stupid stunts. I believe this became the cornerstone of this website's success. Although I think it's insane to try most of these dangerous acts, it does provide entertainment for myself and my friends. If at the beginning of the video you hear the words, "Hey Y'all!!! Which 'is!!", you know it's going to be good.
