Obviously it's not going to be interesting to everyone but I do find it interesting that he talks about certain ways of treating time and how you have shown a perspective of time you spent watching the video.

Are people so easily impressed by cartoon drawings? I guess it distracts away from the emptiness of the speaker. This video was a huge waste of time for me to watch.

I sought instantaneous pleasures a lot, even doing a variety of drugs (which I still think are perfectly fine, healthy and normal when enjoyed wisely, that is, in moderation), so here he is indicating that young people will be more susceptable to addictive behavior based on gaming, etc. Is there an antidote, a way to train better social skills and personal responsibility? I didn't see a solution. But I see young people in the world almost daily, and they seem just as nice and agreeable as anytime I can remember. I am 51 btw.

I say that because it's a important distinction even in this gross over-simplification to make it "the most simple idea in the world" @10:01 and not "the most simple thing in the world" :-) though this one is, granted, not important enough to point out, hehehe Aren’t you mistaking RSA for TSA? lol
