Cultural Appropriation

The1janitor talks about the theory of 'cultural appropriation', what it is, and who he thinks is doing it (or not), and whether he thinks it's a problem.

Ok. What is this thing called when there is a cut between every sentence? Maybe I'm a bad person, but I don't give a fuck what you're talking about when you edit your video like that. Please stop doing this, everyone.

edit. It's "jump cut" .. fuck you jump cut.

It's annoying, agreed, but I'm not sure it's any less annoying than someone having a long drawn out monologue, with, um..... pauses... and stuff, while they, like, think of.....damnit, it was on the tip of my tongue.....the next thing to say!

Of course, the alternative is to write out a script and learn to read a speech correctly, but fuck that! That sounds like work!

Well, it certainly involves a lot more video editing work, so it's not exactly for the lazy. And if it cuts down the length of your video by 50%, I'm all for it for numerous reasons. Too much content out there, ain't nobody got time fo dat.

And I like it, so I think I'll culturally appropriate it.

Reminds me of a discussion I got into with some friends about why is it okay to be a ninja for Halloween but not a geisha. They are both Japanese professions, both have had non-Asians in said profession, it seems a little random about what's racist and what isn't.
