"Why are the beginning of youtube videos so goddamn boring? Don't people know how to edit video?"

The Wadsworth constant (Xi) states that the relevant or interesting part of any video will start at the 30% mark
Wadsworth Constant (Xi):
On Youtube, adding "&wadsworth=1" to the end of the URL of the video will skip you to 30% into the video.
A term coined by Wadsworth on Reddit.com.
The Wadsworth Constant is simply either the removal of the first 30% of selected content or the singular usage of only the first 30% of selected content.
Context: "A place formerly used to find out about slang, and now a place that teens with no life use as a burn book to whine about celebrities, their friends, etc., let out their sexual frustrations, show off their racist/sexist/homophobic/anti-(insert religion here) opinions, troll, and babble about things they know nothing about."
Wadsworth Constant Applied: "book to whine about celebrities, their friends, etc., let out their sexual frustrations, show off their racist/sexist/homophobic/anti-(insert religion here) opinions, troll, and babble about things they know nothing about."

When watching online videos, the Wadsworth Constant states the first 30% of the video will not be pertinent or necessary. The viewer will be able to watch the second 70% without any loss.
This theory holds true to most videos and statements, assuming everything is rounded to the most logical point.
Wadsworth Constant: the intro is bullshit, skip to there, you'll get it.
