It's like I'm watching with a fucking 2400 baud modem or something.
What the hell is up with Youtube? Doesn't Google have the most epic datacenters around? Or are even the most epic datacenters not enough to handle the load?

Even though you're on a fast connection, that doesn't mean the problem isn't on your side. Most ISPs have intermittent connectivity issues often, due to network or hardware upgrades. Most people don't notice the downtime because the sites they're visiting happen not to be affected by the maintenance.
