Tubespam

YouTube uploads tenuously related to a popular video upload or song. These results hinder the search for the real or original work, provoking frustration and ridicule. Particularly irritating when searching on iPhones and iPads, which seem incapable of locating the original, displaying page after page of user-created bumf.

"Oh look, yet another 'Double Rainbow' tribute from stoned college students! This sort of Tubespam should be punished - what's their IP?"

I've searched for 10 minutes on YouTube, and all I can find are useless tributes and remixes of the song I'm after! Bloody Tubespam!

blue devils

Demons formerly believed to cause depression and melancholia. The Blues is a shortening of this seventeenth century expression. Can be used in a similar way to 'the Black Dog', as a synonym for depression.

'Are you alright X? You seem a bit down.'
'Just a touch of the blue devils.'

'Did you hear? X had to be sectioned - they were self-harming!'
'Yep. Off to the blue-devil factory.'
