So yeah, what do you think about the point and uses of internet subcultures?

I think our vids (or at least mine) have about as much point as trying to cram a blender into a frog.

Are you implying I should stop trying to cram the blender into this frog?

But in all seriousness; I do love the chaoticness of internet culture, but it needs focus or it ends up just sucking itself into itself, if you know what I mean?

Yes. You should probably stop.

I do understand exactly what you are saying although I disagree on one point. The definition of joining an internet subculture. I believe it has more meaning than "Jack armadillo." Although that line is freakin funny. :D

As I state in my vid, I think, depending on the sub-culture itself, it can mean something. I may be biased, but I'd say being an Exilian means more than being, say, a b/tard.
