I see the light, now. It is beauteous, it is simple. The whole world is an Underserved Community; nobody in the world got to do all the fun K-3 class projects that I did. They didn't get to plant gardens, or learn about animal habitats, or do silly little dances. They are just crying out for me to share my experience!
And here I thought I had to do all this hard work on becoming enlightened, first.

Speaking of demanding, I know this is dangerous terrain of discourse (Yay! I used the word "discourse"!), but... How is what this dude does construed as art? It's just acts of pleasant eccentricity.

I think there are more mature paths to criticism than through mocking someone else's good intentions. He should be given credit for trying. Her sole intention appears to be bringing him down. Maybe from jealousy? Who knows?

I make no excuses for professionals. If you're a professional and bad at communication then you deal with it either by not communicating, having someone else do it for you, or learning how to communicate--and you do not give your imprimatur to a promotional video that you feel does not represent you at your best.
The "Cat Condos" video falls under the heading of satire, which has long been considered a valid form of criticism.
