Don't be terrified. I think you're too invested in youtube. Most of the people that I know don't bother competing with greedy talentless schmucks, they aren't jealous. I'm not saying you are jealous - but I do know that you're paying attention. You need to go on a diet.

I love you and you know that.

But how many videos are you going to make talking shit on youtube? Youtube is 90% garbage, everybody already knows that. So... Nobody that is involved in that race to the top of the garbage pile is going to stop stepping on other people to get to the top because you or Phil or Cory or Caitlin or Smosh or even the Youtube Creators (Gods) tell them too, most of them are self-centered losers. JamesNintendoNerd being an exception.

You're being creative, luring the lazy fans of yours of off youtube, and it's a start. Watching this video made me feel like you're an addict of the youtube website though. I know there's no way to avoid it, and you are a part of it's history - but... there's gotta be a time when you mostly just give up on competing with those guys. None of them have done anything spectacular, save Brandon Harv. and he's your buddy.

Keep your head above the clouds.

When I first decided to take at look at this vlogging malarkey I was pretty dubious, i arrive on you tube, during the height of your fame there, your about the second one i try and as I watch your videos, following the loves, losses, the opportunities, the reflective moments, genius movie reviews. I appreciated bieng part of that. Then it seemed like you tube started to get you down and I could see you wanted to branch out and do more but the fear of opinion seemed to hold you back.
My nanna imparted me with fine words of wisdom, she said "be creative, be true to yourself and if people hate your for it.. Fuck 'em"

bless nan, she always knew what to say.

The people who follow you to your other projects are gonna be the people who's opinion matters, the ones who want to know 'whats next'.

Your an excellent creative artist, (i know it sounds like a lame compliment, but im british and we dont do lame compliments, what we say is what we mean. =)) keep going with what your doing, but seriously... get a nicer looking arsehole for your brainpoop. (its what we called a red rose arsehole over here, very messy) I suggest Sasha grey's. =)

You know what Ben, I kinda like this place. I mean, fuck, you can download the video here if ya want. It's not as full of bs as youtube. I could upload vidz here as a back up harddrive almost, download them again when needed. I think I am gunna start coming here more.

I just dropped by to get Cory's telephone game wmv and did some more searching. I found some Lisa Collab clips, smosh and I found you. You don't have videos for download though. Anyway, this is like some little secret base to me and I'll be using it alot more. See ya 'round.
