Viral Video of the Day: Yelp Reviewed

Normally, our viral videos are submitted to us by a figure known as The Video Guy. If you are new to the site, read the story behind that here (it’s a strange one). With that said, we haven’t heard from him in a while. We hope he is OK. We’ll let you know if we hear anything from him, which we will do by posting his videos again.

So normally we don’t post videos unless The Video Guy sends one to us. I came across this video, however, and couldn’t resist passing it along to our readers. Let me give you some background for why I love this video so much.

I have a love/hate relationship with Yelp. Sure, it’s great if you are looking for a place to eat in a city you aren’t familiar with. It has helped me discover a few places while I’ve been traveling that I would never have otherwise known about. On the other hand, Yelp presents itself as a neutral site when it clearly isn’t. It also contains some of the most whiny and obnoxious reviews you will ever read, which is largely what makes this video so great. Enjoy.
