I had to watch this twice just to make sure it wasn't a joke.

Wow!

My head is still swimming.

13. when a person is that age and still living in mom's basement .....

I have to question his vast knowledge.

[Dagaz]

3. What letter does Sarah start with?

[Esra Star]

4. I think it is a joke

His youtube name pretty much gives it away.

5. It was originally posted on BusinessInsider.com

Someone in the comments went through his channel and pointed out his other topics.

I think he's serious.

7. I can't wrap my mind around that.

I would prefer that he was one of those jokers that are never out of caricture....but this is a weired time and I guess he could be real.

8. Yeah - like RedStateUpdate

Those guys are hilarious. This guy seems a few fries short of a happy meal.

6. But now it's Ghana's path to socialism.

Sorry, US, no path to socialism for you for at least four more years.

9. ok - that was clever for about half-way through . . . .

obviously a prank. Please don't claim it's real . . . that's just embarrassing.

[Althaia]

11. I call "Poe"

Because I can't tell if he's for real or not. I strongly suspect it's satire, after visiting his websites, but I'm not sure because there are people as crazy as he seems to be.

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Poe

Poe's Law states:
Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing.

(snip)

Expansion of the concept

Originally the law only made the claim that someone will mistake a parody of fundamentalism for the real thing - that if someone made a sarcastic comment stating that evolution was a hoax because "birds don't give birth to monkeys" then there would be a high probability that someone, later in the discussion, would miss the joke and explain (in all seriousness) how the poster was an idiot. However, the usage of the law has grown, and now the term "Poe" is almost synonymous with any parody on the internet. Essentially, the concept has developed to include three similar but different concepts:

1. The original idea that at least one person will mistake parody postings for sincere beliefs.
2. That nobody will be able to distinguish many instances of parody posts from the real thing.
3. That anybody, not already in the grip of fundamentalist ideas, will mistake sincere expressions of fundamentalism for parody.

12. ...know almost nothing about soccer....

including the fact that the rest of the planet pays football, not soccer.

14. Is he channeling Glenn Beck? LOL! nt

[tjwash]

15. Shh...if he didn't have youtube he would be on a street corner somewhere screaming this

[Jack Rabbit]

16. Santa Claus starts with an S.

Of course, giving toys to little girls and boys regardless of the money their parents make just because they are well behaved is clearly socialist.
