Are you serious?

Yes.

No.

Maybe?

Honestly, I don't know.  I'm suffering from chronic toothache and have been jacked up to the nines on strong painkillers these past few days, completely spaced out.  My brain's floating in a mire of confusion.  Who are you and what do you want?

De-greasing pizzas, the right way. This is what insanity looks like.

Insanity is right.  Everyone knows that the grease of a pizza is the only part worth a damn!  Now, a video on how to dispose of the troublesome pizza and its worthless toppings, whilst retaining the delicious nectar of its grease would be a useful and instructive thing indeed.

The bloke whose video you were mocking is clearly a bit special, so it seems a bit harsh to make fun of him.

W-What's that? What's this you ask? What's this book that's in no way strategically placed next to me so as to be clearly visible to the camera? Oh how did that get there completely by accident? Have you read it? Its great. Yes, I am the author as it happens now back to pizza v human toes proximity queasiness.

Yeah, to be honest; I didn't pick up on that possibility at first, until after I'd posted and looked at some of his other videos.  I wouldn't have posted in the first place if I'd known beforehand and if Neil would care to remove that particular post of mine out of respect for the guy in question, then I'd be supportive of such an action.

For the record, I myself suffer from various mental health issues[nb]Severe social phobia (to the point of agoraphobia) and severe depression/anxiety.  I don't want a medal or anything.  I'm just saying that I...  no fuck it, I do want a medal.  Post haste.[/nb] and have had more than my share of bullying and belittlement for suffering from something which I can't help, my whole life.  It's saddens me to know that I did likewise to someone else, albeit without realising that the fellow even had mental health issues to begin with.  I shall endeavour to be more careful and perceptive in future.

The bloke whose video you were mocking is clearly a bit special. Most people (even, strangely enough, people who we'd probably categorise as alt-righter types) usually approach him with a sense of respectful curiosity.

You never need to worry about this guy's peculiarities being documented, as he'll already have done it himself: http://www.ulillillia.us/aboutmeindex.shtml

I feel really bad now.  I honestly had initially thought that he was just a bit of an oddball (reminded me of a younger version of the bloke with a cat table from Gogglebox).  Trust me, I have spent my whole life surrounded by mental illness (both my own, a large proportion of my friends and various other folk down at my local MIND social centre).  I'm far from insensitive to such issues, though as evidenced, I can sometimes fail to recognise it in other people (likely due to my aforementioned exposure to such things; its all become rather normalised for myself at this point).

Anyway, if anyone would care to spend their daily point to give me some much deserved negative karma, then that would be appreciated.  Then hopefully we can all move on...

EDIT: Oh, your comment was aimed at the pizza guy video linked to by Spoon!  I guess it's surprisingly easy to accidentally have a pop at people with mental health issues.  It's a bloody minefield out there!

Was having a go at the product (and toe) placement in the video is all. I'd not come across Ulillillia before. I'll take a look at that site you've linked.

I'm not having a go, no judgement dished out on this one, I was just echoing marquis' comment for comic effect, and to spread a little Ulilililililialialiala awareness. I think he's fascinating and quite enjoyable.

I think I may end up having to agree with you on that score.
