Explaining, and thus ruining, the joke (Patreon)

Let this be the last time we ever speak of this abomination. Two things I forgot to mention:

1: I did end up losing followers for this stunt! (Can you blame em?)

2: The thing I was about to say when I got distracted was "A lot of people don't seem to know this but..." Youtube ad breaks actually lowered their threshold, so you get twice as much money when your video is EIGHT minutes long instead of ten. I got a lot of comments asking me why I didn't stretch the length to at least 10 minutes, so there's a little hot tip for you.
