I totally understand. But sometimes you put in so much work, that you need that distraction. Becky :)

I'm just wondering whether this irritates anyone else?
I've often come across videos where someone waffles on for ages at the beginning. For example, something like, "Hey
I agree, some also ramble on about people who have commented on a video they did last week that has no relevance to the video they are supposed to be presenting. For this reason I download most Youtube videos first and I can fast forward easily. My internet is too slow to fast forward a live feed.
I get irritated about these, but I also get irritated about long, rambling articles, blogs and/or other copy, especially if they also repeat themselves several times before they get to it.
I agree with you Marcus. When I look up a video I want the facts and nothing but the fact. If it drags on I tend to exit.
However, I'm sure their are others who like all the fluff.
Just say'in!
That's when I either stop the video or adjust the playback speed. I really dislike videos that waste my time. That's why I edit my videos to remove unnecessary pauses waiting for pages to load etc.
No, it's not just you.
It is one reason I usually don't watch videos. Using a baseball metaphor, I am only interested in the delivery, not the wind up.
The 1 hour webinars that spend 45 minutes telling you about, and showing you the picture slideshow "rags to riches" story of the course or program creator. Those irritate me.
Hi Marcus. As irritating as what you said might be, if the video is full of good stuff, I do tend to accept all the crap initially. However, if after a couple of minutes it doesn't get any better, I'll have a quick look to see how long the video is. If it's a pretty short one, I might carry on watching it, but if it's long, I'll fast forward to a couple of random places, and if it's still crap, then it's gone.
Other things which irritate the life out of me are the voice and the volume. Some people have such a heavy accent, you can't make out what they're on about. Having the recording volume made too low also annoys me since even with my speakers going at full output, it's still not loud enough to hear it properly.

Yes, a really strong accent or too much slang because they are trying to sound cool, that's a real turn-off. There are some Americans that speak in a really lazy way where they don't seem to pronounce their consonants at all. Do you know what I mean? It's like they are just making a series of vowel sounds.
I hate any kind of ramblings lol.... One thing I do despise is the standard hyped up intros "Hey its your boy ........." Does my head in.

Do long, rambling video introductions irritate you?
