YouTube Comments Don't Need a Thumbs Up Button

[img src="" caption="" credit="" alt=""]

YouTube, along with ads, has launched a new threaded comment section. Users can not only reply to comments, but they can also give a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" to each one. Unfortunately, I struggled to find anything worth awarding a thumbs up: between "u suck", "stupid americans" and "if you don't repost this 100 times", there isn't much intellect in the YouTube comments - perhaps this video is more to the point (contains some swearing).
