Everything everyone does has been put on the internet. And everybody was given access to it. And everybody was given a voice with which to speak.

"Get shit on" is the term you're looking for.

"Of many writers who fill their age with wonder, and whose names we find celebrated in the books of their contemporaries, the works are now no longer to be seen, or are seen only among the lumber of libraries which are seldom visited, where they lie only to shew the deceitfulness of hope, and the uncertainty of honour."

"Time quickly puts an end to artificial and accidental fame."

Don't be too worried OP. This is how the mainstream bandwagon works.

A mass of cultural ignorance latching onto popular opinion and forming an angry mob until the next cultural travesty that goes viral captures the attention of these braindead illiterate mouth breathers.

However, our curse is that all terrible music videos we share from now on will be compared to Rebecca Black.

Not BrokenCYDE or Fedora Girls or the faggots who sung Video Games... It makes me sick too, OP.

It makes me sick too.
