It's entirely without purpose.Why would this matter to anyone ever? If this is what you are looking forward to in Canada then I suggest you stay in England.

If it bores you that much, nobody makes you watch it.
A) If you are 4
B) Usually at 4, you are made to watch this kinda crap and it's probably the audience it suits best.

So you would burn all the art in the world as this also serves no specific purpose other than to look at and admire.

Have you got pictures on the walls of your house? Why? you can't eat them, in fact they serve no purpose. Other than to look at !!!

Bit like your posts really.

Like i said, you choose to watch my videos, some like it some don't, bit like Marmite.

MM. Maybe some one will show it to there kids. Who knows, who cares, ohh yeh you care. Thanks.

Well, you did claim your videos would be practical and helpful for those moving to Canada. I contend this is not the case, as the kinds of sweets sold in a petrol station is hardly essential knowledge for anyone. Nor is it even interesting at any level. Now it seems you are claiming they are 'art' - I have to admit I hadn't considered this. There is something of the early Fassbinder about them, so perhaps I am being prematurely judgmental.

Here here! You beat me to it, I was about to compare your work with the Great Masters.. Don't be discouraged, many visionaries are poo pooed at first & the true worth of their work is only understood years later..
I'd like to take this opportunity to suggest a piece on light bulbs & electrical plugs, calling them different just doesn't cover it.. Or perhaps a short film on beer, always a favourite..

Oh it doesn't. I was just pointing out it was really crap and that everyday life in Canada doesn't need to be as sad as this.

Nearly 1,500 views and counting, not bad for 8 videos.

http://www.youtube.com/my_videos

Who cares what you thread destroyers think??? Some one watches my videos,( i get nice private messages, people ask for stuff privately, because they may/will get abused by you lot), and that is what matters.

Thanks for watching.

I'd be interested in a better exporation of the concept of sweet vending at Canadian petrol stations as an allegory for the hardships experienced in post first war Germany. Are the bon-bon prices symptomatic of creeping hyper-inflation in the GTA? Are they in some way symbolic of the rise of facism?

Serious question, (honest to God) Does it only register per click or is it for each one that has been watched all the way through? Just wondering......
