5 minute crafts is a bot farm scam larger than every other channel on YouTube and they’ve gone to great lengths to hide it.

    I can understand how actual crafts enthusiasts would be offput by the change. Although, I will say…I kinda want to watch the videos about gluing hooks to your forehead and hanging coats. I’m imaging it SNL style. A husband and wife open the door to greet the couple they are going to host for the evening. And as they take their friends coats, they open the closet door, and there’s just a guy in the closet with hooks glued on his face. And they just hang their couples coats, while their friends just look on like “…what?”. And then, they do a tutorial on how to glue hooks to your face, so you can freak out your friend’s friends. You don’t have to be naked in the closet, but…it certainly is a route you could take if it’s that kind of a party! The tutorial would be done by Martha Stewart, in a very serious tone…but she’s just hot gluing hooks to a bunch of 20 year old stoners faces.

    And then Martha Stewart could be like “When I hot glue some pretty boys faces, sometimes the glue gun burns their young little faces. It’s a good thing.” As it cuts to her absolutely intentionally burning some guys face with the metal tip of the glue gun while laughing maniacally.

    I’d watch that show.
