lmao people think just because its satire it cant be clickbait, or that the clickbait won't work as clickbait
so, about the title and thumbnail (i havent watched and won't watch the video):
satire doesnt work if what you do is the same as everyone else. like, if you're gonna make fun of someone by mimicking them satirically, you're supposed to be more extreme than whatever the person is doing.
this doesn't do that. it mimics the stuff it's trying to make fun of way too well, so it just looks like a normal clickbaity video about hating a linux distro.
YouTube’s been shoving that corny thumbnail in my face all day and now I got to see it here? 😒
It’s satirical, I recommend it. The thumbnail is part of the joke
But his "serious" videos are just like this too, so not sure who he is supposed to be parodying; himself?
I mean Brodie is a meme sure, but watching a video about it? Nah.
