Well,
if
you,
if
you
need
proof
that
I'm
not
quite
the
thug,
that
I
make
myself
out
to
be,
you
need
not
look
any
further
than
this
shirt.
It's
it's!
It's
not
as
tough
of
town
as
depicted
in
the
video,
well
I'm,
a
video
blogger
on
YouTube
and
one
of
the
content
partners
for
the
site.
So
a
lot
of
the
stuff
that
I
post
is
this
musical
comedy
sort
of
stuff
and
I.
A
B
Actually
going
to
law
school
and
that's
when
I
came
across
YouTube,
it
was
2005
and
I
saw
these
people
sort
of
starting
these
channels
and
getting
these
big
followings
and
you
know
a
lot
of
the
channels.
Weren't
very
good
and
I
was
thinking
to
myself
I'm,
not
very
good
too.
You
know,
I
could
be
just
as
bad
as
has
that
channel.
B
What's
tough
about
you
know
these
videos
by
the
time
you
made
it
you're
the
only
audience
and
then
you
sort
of
just
throw
it
out
there
and
just
you
know,
fingers
crossed
so
folks
like
it
stand
up.
The
feedback
is
instant.
When
you
tell
a
joke
boom,
it's
laughter
or
boom,
no
laughter,
awkward
silence,
perhaps
a
tomato
with
the
internet.
You
know
it's
gonna
be
quiet
regardless
of
if
you're,
hilarious
or
not.
You
know
it's.
It's
just
clicks.
The
first
video
I
did
was
in
the
fall
of
2006.
B
B
B
You're
not
allowed
to
put
a
tripod
and
I
did
a
video
about
McDonald's
one
time
and
I
wanted
to
go
into
the
kids
play
area
and
film
myself,
sitting
next
to
Ronald,
McDonald
and
I
realized
that
as
a
grown
man,
perhaps
it
would
be
disconcerting
to
some
people
to
just
walk
in
there
with
a
camera
and
start
filming
things.
So
I
recruited
my
sister
to
help
me
film
that
so
I
would
look
at
least
marginally
less
creepy,
creepy
nonetheless,
but
marginally
less
holding
a
camera
is,
is
polarizing,
I!
B
Think
because
sometimes
people
are,
you
know
all
excited
like
what's
going
on
with
this
camera,
and
you
want
to
just
be
like
it's
just
a
camera,
calm
down
and
then,
but
sometimes
people
are
just
up
in
arms
like
what
are
you
doing
with
a
camera?
This
is
unacceptable
when
you
again
want
to
say
calm
down:
it's
just
a
camera,
just
they
generate
emotion,
but
the
cameras
are
great.
B
Well,
the
Arlington
video
is
sort
of
a
tribute
and
an
introduction
that
I
made
to
my
neighborhood
I,
just
moved
to
Clarendon,
because
I
loved,
fine,
dining
and
continuous
construction
and
I
wanted
to
sort
of
show
what
my
neighborhood
was
like
to
everybody
and
and
I
didn't
land
in
Clarendon
by
accident.
I,
really
like
the
area.
B
Exceeded
my
expectations
for
it,
I
didn't
think
anybody
was
gonna
watch
it,
but
I
just
knew
it
was
something
I
wanted
to
make
and
that
I
would
I
would
like
making
it.
You
know
when
they
asked
you
when
you're
a
kid.
What
you
want
to
be
it's
probably
difficult
nowadays,
because
a
lot
of
the
things
that
kids
ultimately
will
become,
don't
exist.
Yet
you
know
even
in
high
school
I
couldn't
say:
oh
I
want
to
be
a
blog,
because
people
would
be
like.
What's
a
blogger,
in
fact,
my
parents
are
still
like.
B
What's
a
blogger,
so
it's
it's
it's
a
little
interesting,
but
no
complaints
for
me.
Jesus
been
a
lot
of
fun.
I
like
these
drawers
where'd,
you
all
get
these.
It's
like
the
IKEA
on
Krypton,
tough
crowd.
I
told
that
one
this
way
just
over
hi
I'm,
Remi
Manasa
fee
from
NGO,
Remi,
dot-com
and
I
live
in
Arlington.
