Homeschool for Adults — How to YouTube Your Way Through the Quarantine
The Coronavirus quarantine is an unrelenting Groundhog Day interspersed with receiving the same memes over and over. Now, by the end of the second week you’re probably asking yourself a whole new set of questions, like how do you use TikTok? What’s the best way to clean a shower? Am I an alcoholic? Don’t worry, all these answers and more can be found on YouTube, so you don’t have to leave your bed, let alone sit up to find them.
Here are the answers to some questions you may be asking yourself right about now.
• How to dye your hair at home — ““HEYYYYYY GUYS!!” shouts some young, annoying, overcaffeinated auburn cheer leader into the camera from her tiny yellow bathroom. “I’ve had a really annoying day, so let’s dye my hair!” Pause. Mute. Fast forward. At 2.5 minutes in when she still hadn’t even started dying her hair, I stopped watching. I don’t have time for the self-absorbed theatrical dramatizations of the generic beauty influencers. Well, I have all the time in the world, but zero patience. So, if you’re like me here are two other painless options: root spray (if you can find it) or just wear a hat until the quarantine is over because really who’s looking and who cares. “And don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to my page!!” Bitch leave me alone.
