Everyone's a critic

The comment wall

The one big rule for YouTubers or any social media personality is - 'Don't read the comments!'

Have we really thought about how this rule came about?
Read the comments for this famous video displayed below
Complete the playbuilding exercise following the instructions from your teacher.

What is the overall response to this video, based on the tone and content of the comments read aloud? Were any of the comments abusive or inflammatory?
Were any of the comments positive or encouraging?
What was it like hearing that feedback aloud? Did the words make more of an impact when read aloud compared to when read silently?
Do we feel aware of our comments on social media? Can they be traced back to us? Is the presence of a digital tattoo clearer now upon reflection than it was before this task?
