The circle is complete. First, it was the Internet watching TV and talking about it. It was people biting TV clips, digitizing them and posting them on YouTube. Now, the TV empire strikes back!
In this SNL clip from last Saturday, they have bit material from YouTube and worked it into their sketch. (Credit to Scarlett for some great Grape Lady sound effects)
So basically I have here a clip from YouTube, that is from SNL, covering YouTube, covering TV news, which covered a real event. We are 5 degrees of separation from our own reality! Our culture is basically in the restroom of the local MoviePlex, looking at our reflections recede into infinity in the two opposite-facing mirrors.
Wait! You are reading this on Adchops, which is simply writing about and linking over to the YouTube covering the SNL covering the YouTube covering the TV news covering reality. Six! Six degrees of separation!
I know… I just blew your mind.
