My “favorite” is when they start every video with “in this video, I’m gonna talk about”. It’s like: no shit, why I clicked on it.
That YouTube tutorial on how to apply Nair to your butthole ticks most of these. The guy is pretty upbeat though.
My favorite tutorials are on like the 5th page of Google after all the ads and clickbait videos where I can find a short, to the point, written guide.
I miss GameFAQs. I know it’s still around but it’s not really updated for new games.

I feel like a garbage collector sorting recyclables because some idiot put glass in the plastic bin again every time I try to look up a solution to a problem.
It’s either: A. 1,000 word essay on how someone’s grandma died and loved making muffins before teaching you how to make some goddamn muffins. B. 1 hour video explaining the entire history of muffins before actually showing you how to make muffins with an extremely bad webcam microphone.
Try being vegan looking for recipes online, not only do you get the rambling texts with 30 massive images before they actually get to the recipe like every recipe blog these days. The vegan ones also seem to make it a point to get as many weird/rare ingredients as possible into the recipe, (like god damn I just wanted to make a simple chocolate cake, how could you possibly stretch that to 20 ingredients, 9 of which i’ve never even heard about?)
The best solutions are almost always the boring ones.
