       It's difficult for me to politely describe how intensely I dislike #YouTube videos with narration provided by synthesized voices.

       @lauren Do you prefer captions in badly-translated English?

       @lauren Agreed 💯. And it’s always the same annoying tone voice as well.

       @lauren "unnecessarily excessive" synthesized voices. I suspect it's more of a trend than a production limitation. Reminds me of a great story about CRTs and low-res graphics I read recently. Graphics were designed in a way that took advantage of the light bleed between pixels on CRTs. You don't get this in LCDs and this makes low res reproductions of old sprites look way more blocky than they really were. But we seem to love the exaggerated blockiness.

       @lauren It's a shame I can only favorite this once.

       @lauren My only real problem with them is when they mispronounce things or use bad grammar. Ugh.
