There are so many people on the internet giving excellent writing advice, so I thought I'd help bring balance to the Force by giving some bad writing advice. You can thank me later. Or don't. That's fine too. You can leave a hateful comment, if you want. That's cool. It doesn't hurt my feelings at all when you do that. In fact, it fills me with a burning desire to make more videos when you say "Stop making videos," so go ahead and drop a "Stop making videos," if you like this video, thanks.
