Ew the thumbnail's a disaster.
Sorta made this video after bingewatching Punk'd. Who doesn't like a playing a good prank? (Emphasis on 'good' cuz we gotta be careful not to cross over the line). Having been a big prankster enthusiast since grade school & even made a comic series about pranksters it's kinda ironic that the pranks I pulled are actually way lamer than expected. Can't compare real life to comics.
This was meant to be uploaded on April 1st but yanno how long it takes to edit a video. Let alone write the flow cuz words are hard. P.s. please ignore the gross acne scars on my chin, I've used up my good skincare set that made my skin better & now i have to wait till I get it again.

Y'all, i've been busy, the first two months I've had a malfunction/breakdown cuz my office computer crashed & all the saved data were gone, including a project I've been working on for a friend. I was also rushing on a long overdue commission. Thats why the vlog's two months late, and I've got nothing good to say on camera other than lightly roasting both TheBlackFriday & Adamtots (please dont take this as an invitation to harass Adamtots & TheBlackFriday even further), and of course plugging my friends' clothing line.

At last the year has come to an end, thus making this one the last episode of 2013YOTQ. Who knows what I'm gonna rename my vlog with. Will it have '2014' in it? I dont know.
Yes, it's been a terrible year, we all felt like our freedom has been taken, etc etc. But at the same time a lot of us find this year oddly motivating, as it provides a calmer environment for us to concentrate on creating things. And no more time wasted on transport, that time's going in the productivity bank :D
However it's still a terrible year looking at all the deaths due to the pandemic all over the world, and violence happening in various countries.

Thought I was gonna make my vlogs strictly around 6 minutes, but this one ain't it. What can I say, I've got a lot of things to say when it comes to copying, imitation and the occasional topic of envy that comes with it. There's loads I wanna talk about but in this vid it's just my dumb copying experiences; how I first came to like copying as a wee bebbie kindergartener, how the tiniest similarity can drive someone into imitating another, and how I became this brand™ of annoying that y'all see today 🤣
Right The so-called "subliminal messages". After exporting from Final Cut Pro there are suddenly these frequent green screen gaps popping up that I couldn't fix in the middle of the video, so I took advantage of them & filled them in with these messages as a joke.
Was feeling extra silly this time, and my glasses won't stop doing that anime thing because my screen was too bright on purpose. I've turned it down & added extra backlighting with the nightlight but that didnt do it either.
Let's go 5 years back to the late 2000s, when Yo Mama jokes were still somehow acceptable, and besides rocking out, I had other plans of going up on stage & telling jokes to my audience. Tbh eventhough music is still my main goal, doing stand-up comedy is still in my bucket list.
One of the things that spark joy for me: finding & comparing alternatives to your usual everyday apps & sites, especially social media websites. Idk, there’s just something about using sites & apps no one’s ever heard of before which are basically competitors of already famous ones. It’s sort of like listening to underground bands.
I forgot to mention that there's a site called AlternativeTo, it's where you can find out about the possible alternatives of the sites, softwares & apps you're already using. You can also create an account & suggest some alternatives they haven't mentioned yet.
SO. MANY. JUMPCUTS. Ugh I had to retake some scenes in here, I'm still trying to grasp the thing called recording smoothly.
During this time around when we're all stuck at home, why not do something we all haven't done before?
I'm not the vlogger type tbh, but there's no harm in trying. Like I said up there, talking in front of the camera serves as an outlet or some sort of speech therapy/practice, since I'm not that good at talking IRL.
