Word Association is a common word game involving an exchange of words that are associated together. The game is based on the noun phrase word association, meaning "stimulation of an associative pattern by a word" or "the connection and production of other words in response to a given word, done spontaneously as a game, creative technique, or in a psychiatric evaluation."

[True! Food is always a good excuse.]

Really? I would've thought it'd be more mainstream since it sounds like an interesting job or hobby to have. I'm getting excited just thinking about starting my own channel!

[ She really REALLY hopes he does manage to get some people to his channel. She didn't want to see him discouraged if he didn't get lots of viewers. At that thought, she hummed. ]

Well, it is, but it's definitely not easy. You can't just sit back and expect people to subscribe - you have to make things interesting and fun, or entertaining in some way, or if it's something educational or informative, then you have to make sure it's not boring. Viewers are really fickle so it might be hard to grow your channel - or keep them.

[Part of his problem is just giving up too soon, so perhaps he'll have to work at it extra hard to make this attempt work for a change. Though he's not sure how one would go about making sure an educational lesson is entertaining enough to capture viewers' interest. There's a reason he's not a teacher.]

Yeah, there's bound to be a lot of channels vying for people's attention at any given moment. I think I could make the cutting part flashy enough, it's just a matter of keeping it from getting too boring see the same sort of thing over and over again.

[ That's a good question. It was also why Rebecca didn't run an educational channel! ]

Yeah - there are alot of entertainment channels, educational ones don't really get that much attention from a certain crowd. You should probably think on how to make your presentation - you don't necessarily have to stick to one thing. I do a bunch of things for my channel because - like you said, doing the same thing over and over will just stagnate and people will wander to other things.

But I'll help you however I can!

[It's something he'll have to brainstorm over once he's at home and has a notebook in front of him so he can make notes.]

I can imagine that - not everybody is looking to learn things, but everyone wants to be entertained or amused. Hey, that's not a bad idea, I could cute through silly things or stuff that'd be interesting to see an interior view of! What sort of things would you like to see the insides of?

Ohhh, no, I can't visit, I'm .. I'm watching the Rock Papper Scissors Simulator Season Finale. Very Important.

Yeah, exactly. That could work certainly though! Silly things to draw in the attention of others, and something that people don't normally get to see -- ah, the interior view? Uh... hrrm...

I've actually never really thought about it... interior view.. interior view... [ She might need a bit on that one. ]
