National Anthem - Imperial March because Star Wars just ... rules. Or, i could write a neoclassical masterpiece.
Flag - Could be a collage of everyones face who belongs to You Tube, to form some form of pattern on the flag?
President - Would it need a president if you tube already had rules and regulations? Actually, behead the administrators, get some real You Tuberians in! I nominate you to be ruler,because you're a fucking Genius and are so stunning!
I would call it Youtubistan. Youtubia sounds like like an illness or the state of euphoria attained by one who spends far too many hours actually enjoying youtube dot com.
I can't marvel enough at the fact that you managed to keep a straight face throughout this entire video. I wish I had your self discipline. Well, at least where that is concerned.
Will the government of Youtubia have checks and balances? Freedom of speech? Freedom of type? Why is there all this hype...when the Youtubia fruit is ripe? Is that how you spell ripe?
There isn't any Freedom of Speech in YOUTUBIA. And All that shit sound's like Frick'in Politics to me. Where is the freedom. When you can't be yourself. You just get Banned here if the Owners don't like it...!!!!! There is no law that say's any/everybody has the right not to be offened. All this place is about is cencorship...
FREEDOM!!!! By electing people to rule, your taking away the freedom of youtube. Pick up your weapons people and fight with Robin Hood. FREEDOM to the people. ;o) LOL
I nomintate OKGO's "A Million Ways to Be Cruel" as the national anthem of YouTubia. Renetto, the guy with tin foil on his head, not the sober guy, should be the father of our country and first President. Little Loca should be secretary of state.
Come on, she isn't as bad as all that. You can't blame her for trying to get in with the new leader. Maybe he promised her a share in the revenues. I'm sure she will make a splendid figurehead for the movement.
setup a paypal account so we can all chip in to buy an island next to johny dep's then we can all move there and call it the sovereign nation of youtubia.
we allready have President of Youtubia. its LazyDork, haha no seriously, I think naming yourself to be the ambassador of some country is kinda narcistic. The beauty of the internet is that everyones equal.
First off, we definitely need to grow an army. Next we can bring other websites to also develop the great institution of vloging. I suggest to "elect" me as our foreign and propaganda minister. I stand for invading google. I believe that when we send inspectors there we will find everything, including weapons of mass destruction.
To backup my application for war minister, I'd like to say that I am German. As YouTube defines quality in terms of number of views, we clearly have created the best wars so far. Well that didn't end up being as funny as I thought when I started typing. :-/
It was okay. But you don't get to be minister of humor. Unless you can come up with a good way of making war funny and much less destructive. Then you'd have my vote.
Well, let me tell you how this all (the world etc.) works. ;) We YouTubians are the good ones. Unfortunately not every of our neighbor websites is as broadcast yourself as we are and hence their users are suffering. In order to bring our good values to every user in this world (say: Internet), we first have to crush their administration. I don't like war, but it would be false to live our happy lives while those others cannot.
i think since noone can decide the reps for each country we're ganna need some sort of election thingy so the citizens can vote...... where do i register???
Are you serious or are you kidding? Because that's a pretty unpractical idea. YouTube is not an independent state. It is a private website founded by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Jawed Karim. So you won't be able to pick embassy-members or flags unless it's for a subgroup inside the YouTube group itself. Plus, who needs delegates anyway? We don't need spokesmen to make our statements in YouTube and you all know a single Tuber can't speak for an entire nation. Take care.
i could have sworn her profile had CA when she first started out. (i was like her fifth or sixth sub, but have long since lost interest). but at my age, my memory is no longer trustworthy.
they release dioxide to the air that you breath... :( by simple words that means that you can run out of oxygen while you're sleeping with bad bad consequences... Be carefull Paperlilie, we don't wanna miss you....
(?) Plastic plants might MIGHT release dioxINS if you got them really, really hot. But this is good to know how bad plants are for your health. I'm going to cut down the woods around my house and replace them with a parkinglot so I can sleep better.
Well... good idea, PL, but there's the little problem of sovereignty. Can't be a nation without it. Which means we must have the ability to establish and enforce laws and to protect ourselves from, say, other nations. Who might take a dim view!
Maybe we should avoid all of that unpleasantness, and call it a "social club" instead? :P
I vote aericwinter as our leader, even though some lying fool will surely get the popular vote. The Wine Kone should be our mascot. Paperlilies I am voting for you as our beautiful flower:) and last but not least I, the Junkman, should be secretary of the treasury.
yes i wish we could get rid of that things. the greatest thing about youtube is the variety of different people and countries i hope i can learn more from. we don't need a bond chainig us together. (nothing against a cool youtube song but not that kind of praising hymn)
That whole Paul Robinett Movement is starting to scare me a little. In his first non-playacting video, he talks about the power you have when you're a YT celebrity, in his third video, he discusses mechanisms for silenting dissenters, and now his minions start sprouting up all over the place. Does the hymn need to glorify him, or is it supposed to play down the whole leadership thing for the time being?
I love ZenArcher... He's a cool guy. But representing America? I feel like that could be taken the wrong way, and someone who doesn't like him (or America) could say that all Americans are... shirtless, crazy rednecks or something. Not that he is.
I don't think America's that comlicated, you don't have to split it up, I just don't think Zen is a good rep :). But yeah, it's a great concept and I really like it PaperLillies.
I think I laughed for a solid 2 minutes after watching this, what a genius idea everything you said was. It's so absurd that I think it's destined to catch on, in true YouTubian style.
I'd rather submit UTNOW as the American Rep: Intellectual but Smug, Patriotic but not Jingoistic, Moral but not Pedantic...
But we must establish rules of governance... Parliamentary or Presidential Head of State (And who should THAT be, hmmm?), seperation of powers... Oh, and GODS- YouTubian Bill of Rights (There you go, ZenArcher could help us with that one!!!)...
