im not in LA or oc since according to some OC = la. im actually up north a bit in the 805 area code zone and I got these to play just fine.
I'm sure anyone can/will get these regardless if they are in LA(oc). well maybe not china/iran, i hear they have strict internet censors up there.
guy's going to get in trouble for eating on the metro, ive seen posters that food is prohibited and subject to a fine. he's placed the evidence online for all to see. plus did he just vandalize...man oh man, some people just love posting incriminating things about themselves for the world to see.

lol, no, you didn't get the videos, but thats for the feedback, def helps me understand what people think of them. Honestly, i would be less worried about him getting a ticket for eating then i would for him legitimately starving... Which is more often the case. This is my friend Cory and i decided to make a post a bunch of videos of his life. He is probably the craziest person i know... the dialog in these is improved but totally factual... here is the original:
again, totally improved, and totally factual -- we didn't stage this at all. as you can see if you look closely under the kids seats in the background.

Thanks for your feedback!
No... i dont think you get it either... Cory is actually a really smart, well read, and talented guy... and there is a very good reason why Siddhartha is referenced twice over the Catcher in the Rye's 1 reference in the 1st and 2nd videos. Which we get to in later videos... but i understand that you might be pissed at having wasted 5 min... without much of the backstory. It's a weird place to be, a long from story chopped up and delivered in 1 min sections... its almost an imposible place to be... especially from a youtube audience who is trained to not look into anything at all.
I am delivering it on TA cus i figure its an as random smattering of people to watch it as ever and since i've been around TA for ever i know the culture here and have that in.
I assure you this much, people who know cory and who watch these videos laugh uncontrollably... part of the experiment is to see if that enjoyment is transferable to others by these short stupid videos. As it seems so far, i would have to guess no... but at the same time, i dont think anyone who doesn't know cory should be able to get it yet... but there are more videos coming soon!
sorry i've wasted your time thus far! :-p

they just keep coming bro!

Marketing youtube videos online is the most depressing thing ever. _We think these videos are funny, entertaining, offer a real, legitimate story when watched in presented order and are generally enjoyed by literally everyone we know and talk to in person but when we try to get anyone to watch them online they are just like PAAAASSSSS ... “Up next is the latest on the arctic snail that uses parasitic mind control to lure a penguin away from the colony so that it can breed in it's frozen dead flesh.” And in planning this we had no expectation of this "going viral" but we were hoping that one video would get 3,000 views... so far 1 video is at 120 views, so we'll be there in 13 years.
Is this just a ploy/guilt trip to watch the next video?
YUP.
Please enjoy this video much less then the previous ones ... Also, don't tell me they are stupid, and that you didn’t like them -- I know you think they’re stupid and you didn’t like them but I believe in this, 100%. And so, I am completely jaded right now... I’ll probably be hanging out in the Ktown Denny's on Vermont and Wilshire every day next week crying into my unlimited hot cocoa. In case u wanna pop by, point your finger, and laugh at me. _
Also, please don't watch these videos out of pity. _All 10 of them are getting posted while I try to figure out why we even started this stupid ass project to begin with -- talk about a humiliating waste of time.
Yes, I’ll be at Denny's in LA all week. No, don't visit me cus you know no one else is going to and feel sorry for me.
Oh wait never mind about being jaded, club promoters post on here, they have got to be the most depressed people on the face of the earth... Got to? They are. I would know, as one who used to promote concerts -- THAT.
Awesome. _Almost just had my second quarter-life crisis in two years on a tranceaddict forum, a site I posted gibberish on in highschool ... Never-mind I'm having it now.
Yes, this entire diatribe is a planned and plotted ploy to get you to watch the videos -- look at you, you saw right through it.
