If you have a perfectly normal (non-pathological) lack of confidence then pretending to be confident may allegedly help you. A cynic could remark that that requires knowing what that looks like and being able to pull it off, while almost nobody offering that particular "advice" seems to feel a huge need to elaborate on it.
It's a cliché.
It's not all that far removed from shit people say completely without a trace of irony.
See, this is exactly what people mean by disregarding any criticism.
disregarded any criticism
Some people still do this. It is still pretty damn funny.
That's fair. Sounds like a very reasonable way to explain it to the kids' parents, too, if you get the occasion.
Maybe they could start using an engine that is more recent than the Cretaceous.
Pro tip: whenever someone asks you if you have a source and you say either "common sense" or "go find out", you have just said "no I don't."
The videos being paid is not YT's choice, the channel owner must've set that specifically on those ranks for those videos.
Being visible despite being unavailable, seen 4149743 times before, plain crap, obvious junk with 45 views on a 2 sub channel, already specifically hidden, already specifically blocked, etc. etc etc etc etc... those are definitely Youtube though.
BlockTube may have a feature for this, it addresses some of those other cases. Or you could potentially hack together a uBlock rule for it ("any video on the front page that has this stupid price tag thing")
Source? Would love to believe it, but... I don't.
Start handing out kazoos.
Can I non-jokingly ask why that's such a big deal? If it's all up in your grill I get it, or some stupid liability thing. Otherwise, there's little enough joy in the world, what's the harm?
I don't see it either, but I'm sure the .ml gentleperson is only too psyched to explain.
