Is this one of those "would you eat it for a million dollars" and my American stomach says "of course not, it looks good but the most I'd pay to eat that is $20" things?

Youtube also offers me nothing of value for the subscription.
Download videos? I don't need to do that regularly, and when I do I'll use a site where I can actually download a video file that can be played on any media player and can be edited (unlike the "must be played in the app" like I assume happens with youtube premium download).
Ad free? I don't care, I grew up with American television where you'd get 5 minutes of ads every 10 minutes.
Premium videos? I thought they stopped that after realizing no one wanted a "TV show" made by the likes of MatPat and PewDiePie, and even when they did something real like Cobra Kai it wasn't enough, and now all the "premium videos" are locked behind individual membership paywalls. Plus, the only thing I ever want to watch on youtube is free user generated videos.

So now why would I buy a subscription? To support the most powerful company on Earth that has active distain for their users so they can be even more powerful while hating their users even more? I'm not one to throw around the term "boot licker," but short of literally licking boots that would be the most boot licker action one can do.

Correction, with the rise of Hollywood producing AI quality level videos.

Here's the context, the sega genesis is still a popular console in Brazil, so much so that new units were still being made in 2016 (and not "genesis classic, 50 built in games all running off internal flash memory," it's "plug the cartridge in, play games from the 80s and 90s"). It's now 10 years later, and so Brazil is now getting the Dreamcast.

Oh, and here's a funny thing. My wife is applying to be a travel agent and one of the places said "list all the trips you've done, with dates." She asked me if I had that information and I said "yes I do, here's my blog." Even though I don't get a lot of traffic, I'm still glad that I'm documenting my life like that.

I think I'll keep that a secret. But thanks, yeah it wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for the fact my bank required signature, tried delivering while I was at work (to which I think someone was like "well just make sure you're home for delivery" and I'm like "must be nice to not have a job you have to go to"), and then tried to deliver the ONE night I went to Chuck E Cheese after getting over my illness, and then said "final notice, if you don't pick up we'll return to sender."

You probably know my face if you sort by fresh or rising (because I never make it to front); it haunts your dreams at night. gigalol:pokematic
