Poet's videos on Youtube - identification help
January 31, 2023 4:02 PM Subscribe
I'm looking for a poet who had videos on Youtube to accompany their poetry.
Details I recall:
- Ranty / slam poetry style
- Poet was (possibly?) open about being schizophrenic.
- Videos were crude composites of pictures or two/three frame animations.
Two pieces I remember:
- One repeating "I went to the store and..." with a list of things that had happened to them at stores, with a Google Maps picture of the store in question for each one.
- One about animal testing and the cruelty thereof, to pictures of factory farming, with the refrain "Animals don't feel pain! Animals can't feel pain!"
- One repeating "I went to the store and..." with a list of things that had happened to them at stores, with a Google Maps picture of the store in question for each one.

Response by poster: "I Quit" by Bryan Lewis Saunders.
Yes! That's it. And here's the video for The Store now that I know what to search for. Sadly it looks like the video for "I Quit" is no longer online.
