But typically, there are a bunch of errors that are unintentionally hilarious.
If somebody has a nice voice, it's not bad to listen to them talk about stuff. Or if I just really like the person for whatever reason, it's fine.
But when you're trying to talk some deep and meaningful shit...
It's just cumbersome to speak. It really is. Trying to explain things. Trying to translate feelings into spoken word. It's just hard and not really... enjoyable.
I can write it all out a lot better than I can say it.
But as it concerns YouTube videos, it's not a big deal to me to listen to it, mostly because I'm free to do other things while I listen... I split my screen up into two windows so I can browse around while I have the video playing and do other stuff, or I can commentate on the video or whatever the case may be.

Sometimes it is funny, I like to use cc at times.
I think writing or speaking is not enough to completely convey our inner experience or knowing. But for the most part language has evolved enough to translate complex concepts. I think it would be cool if someday there is a technology that let's us "share" our selves to others or if we wanted to learn something we could download it into ourselves, I think there's a movie about that. wtf BTW you've posted a thing or two about language and it's limitations...I am now curious to know how complex your tongue can be.
