Youtube Whores? - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

peaceLOVEandNYC · 29th May 2009, 02:14 PM

Hey all,

i was just perusing YouTube as usual and i went onto my profile and found something that made me extremely uncomfortable.

I have viewed 7,896 videos.

Now, to many this may seem like a feat of the epic proportions but to me, it is a little bit depressing.

I did the math and it comes out to 39480 Minutes which equals 658 Hours which equals 27.42 days of my life spent on YouTube.

Please tell me there are other Addicts out there.

Shevanel · 29th May 2009, 02:28 PM

Well i'm an addict in more than one way, not only do i view many videos (5,229) with 247 favourites. I also make videos too. they're v logs but they're hardly v logs. That number is only 11 at the moment. but still. My life is basically dominated by the internet. so its okay

NkyJ · 29th May 2009, 02:29 PM

Don't be too harsh on yourself. Since the creation of my account in 2006, I have viewed a total of 31,694 YouTube videos.

peaceLOVEandNYC · 29th May 2009, 02:31 PM

good sweet jesus! i feel better now.

but my account was made in september of '08.

it is June of '09.

i think i need to cut back :P

NkyJ · 29th May 2009, 02:32 PM

Don't cut back, YouTube is AMAZING! Hah, I live on it. I watch too many videos... my friends say I have a problem. I'm waiting for the intervention.

Just Adam · 29th May 2009, 02:34 PM

**Victor** · 29th May 2009, 02:34 PM

I've only had my youtube account since February of this year, and I've already seen 16,863 videos...

I'm fairly certain I did not watch every single one of those videos in their entirety, but I am rather oblivious at times... >_<

NkyJ · 29th May 2009, 02:35 PM

I think I'm past the point of being considered a whore :P

Shevanel · 29th May 2009, 02:35 PM

My account was created on Valentines Day, 2009 (February 14th). It was all for that one drunk love video. i actually might've made it while i was wasted, i dont know XD

peaceLOVEandNYC · 29th May 2009, 02:35 PM

i pride myself on that.

Yeah a lot of my video views are from live performances I have playing in the background.

When you add it up you probably haven't been wasting your life away on Youtube as much as you expected.

Now Facebook.. That's a different story. ;_;

James · 29th May 2009, 06:45 PM

25,956 videos viewed since I created my account on March 12th, 2007.

xGreenJayx · 29th May 2009, 07:02 PM

I'm addicted to youtube as well. 10,691. I got 11 subscribers. xD and I have 16 videos.

Iceeh · 29th May 2009, 07:46 PM

I joined on October 08, 2006, and I've seen 8,076 vids... guess that's not too bad for having my account for almost 3 years xD

musican · 29th May 2009, 10:25 PM

10,982 videos watched...

I also put on music videos for background noise, so it's not sooo bad....

Callie · 30th May 2009, 06:22 AM

I´m a YouTube whore as well, but I´m never signed in on my account because I always forget to sign out and then it´s awkward if someone else visits YoutTube after me and I´m not signed out and, yeah you know... I created it June 2 2008 and I´ve watched 170 videos.
