The YouTube comments section can be a breeding ground for trolls and negativity, but the good thing is that their toxicity is often buried under other people's cleverness and wit, which can add an extra layer of entertainment to our video-watching experience.
To remind ourselves that the clip is usually just part of the content and the remainder is below it, let's take a look at the Twitter account 'Absolutely Insane YouTube Comments.' From silly wordplay to surprising connections and references, it has a little bit of something for every sense of humor.
If you like what the account offers, open up our earlier publications on it here and here as well!

*laughing* well at least I’m not like that *glares at papers*
Even though it is full of gems, one of the most well-known platform's stars, MrBeast, has recently revealed that he despises the way the comment section is structured on YouTube.
The American content creator, who managed to grow his own channel to the point that he even got to overshadow PewDiePie himself, was asked on a recent podcast what he would do if he were to take over YouTube for a year.
While he was overall satisfied with the way the platform works, he said he has a problem with how the top comments in every YouTube video are either meaningless spam or bots trying to scam users.
Fun fact: eggs are unfertilised babies, so they are chicken periods. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN
The YouTuber then mentioned Reddit which, in his opinion, does a much better job with that feature, as it actually allows users to leave behind constructive comments.
YouTube's promoted comment environment has gotten so awful for MrBeast that he frequently skips reading what viewers are saying about his videos, preferring to check out the feedback on other places, such as the aforementioned Reddit and Twitter.
*smiles* would you.. would you like fries with that? *ba-da-ba-ba-ba!* (sorry if anything is incorrect, I haven’t watched it yet)
Despite that, the platform remains immensely popular. As of June 2022, more than 500 hours of video were uploaded to YouTube every minute. This equates to roughly 30,000 hours of new content every hour.
The amount of content on YouTube has increased dramatically as consumers’ appetite for online video has grown. In fact, the number of video content hours uploaded every 60 seconds grew by around 40 percent between 2014 and 2020.
Online video is one of the most popular digital activities worldwide, with 27 percent of internet users watching more than 10 hours of clips on a weekly basis.
In 2020, it is estimated that YouTube counted more than 2.1 billion users across the globe, resulting in more than one billion hours of video being watched every day. In 2021, the video platform was one of the leading media and entertainment brands, with a brand value of more than 47 billion U.S. dollars.
You'll still get belly rips from some house cats if you go for belly rubs. 😂

Tips for how to get both your nips and back scratched at the same time. Follow me for more cat injuries
Aw! This is the channel with Mr. Pirate, the shoulder cat! Also, that vet has a great sense of humor.
That vet is awesome. Lots of practical advice for the challenges of living with a cat. Dr. Yuri is his name.
My cat self-identifies as a jaguar, which would be fine, except that she also identifies me as a Kapok tree.
My mother had a kapok-filled pillow. It was unbelievably soft and lovely.

Actually, if they are truly feral most vets used to "wrap a cat". Take large, heavy towel, and tightly swaddle cat, including head (teeth remember) leaving only the part that needs to be looked at out. It protects the vet and the cat, allowing for all feral kitties everywhere to get what they need fixed. It's now almost a list art, unless you know a country vet.
Now that question has 27k likes and his answer 17k likes :) 4 years have passed!
I still can't believe I was in a VO class with this guy - way to go vet-guy!!!
Only once because after lifting an adult Jaguar your spine shall see the afterlife.
*narrator voice* Joshua was never seen alive again. He was later found under a bridge, and in a river
And while TikTok has rocketed in popularity since its North American debut several years ago, YouTube tops the current online landscape even among younger generations.
A new survey by the Pew Research Center revealed that it is used by 95% of teens. (TikTok is next on the list of platforms that were asked about in this survey (67%), followed by Instagram and Snapchat, which are both used by about six-in-ten teens.)
Such a shame he fell off the Grand Canyon, trying to cross over it by a ladder.
Wow such a good hack, I’ve been doing chiropractic stuff and this’ll be great for business
As anthropologist Krystal D'Costa said, online comments help us understand where we fall in the range of perspectives about a particular view. And the thing with the internet is that we don't have to engage. If we see something we don't like, we can choose to "walk away."
He has to have so much blood though. Imagine when he does blood donations. “We know you have more blood. Don’t be greedy. Give us your blood. You’re just being selfish”

Best YouTube comment I’ve ever seen is on Send Me on My Way by Rusted Root (you’ll know the song if you’ve ever watched Ice Age). It was “this man sings in doctor’s handwriting” and it was perfect for the way the guy sings.
100% accurate. I saw someone sing it for karaoke once. They should have practiced first.
