Everything is terrible.

I like it, I just can't get over the MANY mispronunciations. I have such a hard time taking "eagle-tarians" seriously. I don't hear any specific accents that lead me to believe English isn't the Narrator's first language... I just get the feeling that the Narrator only knows english from reading it, not from hearing it spoken.

Despite my pedantry getting in the way, I still like it. The narrator doesn't try to say "Everything is great" or "Everything is terrible"... mainly pointing out how the Star Trek canon is a tapestry of many different, real-world philosophies. Nothing ground-breaking or eye-opening, and it could be 30 minutes, but still good.

*gasp*! Then you're in for a treat! So much gold can be found at everythingisterrible.com. Remember, if everything is terrible, then nothing is!

Is this from a movie? I've never heard of Everything is Terrible. It's almost hard to watch.

What a great sentiment and truly of its time and location. Keep calm and carry on. It says so little and so much. It's not about keeping your head down and ignoring things and being a good little peon. It's the wise words of an aging, warring nation.

So everything's terrible and you're worried it's all steps away from falling apart, but if you panic, and everyone else is panicking as well, and before you know it everything really has fallen apart. But if you persevered and instead of worrying about things you can't change, fix the things you can, and everyone else does too, you may just do enough to reach the next milestone.

I wouldn't be surprised if the sentiment has its roots in military.. it has a militaristic feel to me - something i could easily fit some swearwords into or yell. It's also a great way of combating a rout in a battle. Ok, everything looks like shit, but if you panic you may as well lay down and die, so keep calm and carry on doing what you're supposed to do and if everyone else does you might all live. For your own life, for the life of your squad, for your family back home: KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON!

Perhaps i'm romanticising it? I blame the good video.

isn't this like the time we tried to define porn after someone posted some hilarious and educational videos from the everything is terrible site??

and probably the countless other times we've attempted to collectively define pornography to avoid future confusion?

you can't define this stuff adequately enough to make concrete guidelines that will never be bent or questioned. you can't seal the envelope shut, that's the history of censorship.

(disclaimer: i'm not being douchey and throwing the "CENSORSHIP fit" on this sifttalk post, at all. the tone of that statement was very neutral and matter of fact.)

because i believe it impossible to adequately define and regulate, i remain indifferent to the guidelines that exist now or in the future. i also do not watch any of the videos where people get hurt or killed. my personal preference is to completely refrain from watching them, ever. i even say "i didnt watch this video but.. blah blah" if i want to leave a comment in an interesting thread. i'm perfectly happy sifting this way. a suggestion i would like to make is maybe a tag for "violent/graphic content" maybe those aren't the right words to use, but i really do absolutely avoid watching videos where people are hurt or killed graphically on screen and i suspect im not the only one who sifts this way. i'm not complaining that those videos exist here on the site, and i can usually infer the videos content from the comment thread before viewing... but a warning tag might be nice.
