Now that we've reminded you of how many great videos came out this year, we want to remind you of how strange it is that viral videos are a thing. Millions of people spend their time watching other people's pets sleeping. That's really weird. And we want to find out, via survey, exactly how weird everyone is really being. Answer our questions and come back in January to see the results in infographic form.

Gender?

2

How old are you?

3

How many internet videos do you watch, on average, each day?
