The little ding sound i set to notify me when i got a new message was going off.  Over and over and over&#8230;</p><p>When all was said and done, i had like 150 new emails piped from my Gmail account to my iPhone.</p><p>They ended up all coming from YouTube.  WTF?  I just assumed i got some weird spam bull shiz.  Which is partly true.</p><p>Backup 1 month:  I started uploading a few vids to YouTube to take the traffic/bandwidth dent off my site and figuring it&#8217;d drive some new traffic here.</p><p>One of the videos i put up was of Harstad riding the dude-tube at Ski Acres <span
id="more-177"></span>aka Central a few weekends ago.  The clip was using the Vholdr camera that attaches to your goggle strap.  These things are fukkin sic but that&#8217;s another story.</p><p>Anyways&#8230;i was getting all these comments on this vid that i posted on YouTube.  I had my account set to email me each time someone posted a comment.</p><p>I found out later that the reason i was getting all these emails (an account setting i quickly turned off) was because the video was featured on the front page of youtube.com.  Holy shit!  The video had maybe 40 views last week, now it&#8217;s up to 200,000 and climbing.  Last i checked it&#8217;s still on the front page.  As a result i&#8217;ve seen the traffic on nwBro spike mega too.</p><p>Here&#8217;s the video.  Some of the <a

The video below is a &#8216;video response&#8217; to me posting this video.  This guy took the time to film himself clowning this video.  So rad&#8230;  Makes me want to get a bunch of piercings and spike my hair too.</p><p><a
