I also skimmed. Pretty neat!

He does mention the need for a sub

I can definitely see the appeal of a large minimalist flat panel speaker. My girlfriend probably wouldn't let me put speakers in the living room, but these she would like design wise.

Could you not hang it like a picture frame, so the string is hidden behind?

He says they cost $30 to make

Yeaahhh that's a little self-righteous.

If I become briefly internet famous you bet I'm going to try and figure out a way to benefit from it, hopefully financially.

If my home just got severely damaged in a hurricane, then yes even more so.

They didn't say they're NOT going to help out their friends and family and neighbours. But don't expect them to pledge to rebuild Florida with $20k from a cat video fundraiser.

Other people can launch their own gofundmes too. This couple does not owe them anything.

Okay but her GoFundMe specifically states they are raising money to repair their storm damaged home, and only says at the end that they're donating half to the humane society.

It's not like they're calling it a humane society fundraiser but actually keeping half, it's the opposite. Why paint them in a negative light? These seem like good people doing their best in a tough situation
