Speaking of which, does anyone know what's the story behind those comments on YouTube that are 3-4 sentences made up of a bunch of words that don't match up and look completely random? I see them on almost every new youtube video, almost same frequency as the 'vom' comments.

My guess would be something to do with the algorithm. Spam random words to trigger greater visibility in search results, boost 'engagement' metric - today's bump comment.

  if they're bots, it would only help them to increase the engagement metric.

    That's true, but it would be fun to look at the comments and always be one of those in the top with a bunch of human written replies. Almost a dadaist poem.
