Then you have the opposite.

Fucking dimwits uploading stretched 19:6 gameplays to YouTube of videogames that were designed for a 4:3 aspect ratio .

No, you idiot; Gran Turismo 2 wasn't designed for widescreen.

I hate when they do that to TV shows. Of course watching it in 4:3 with black bars is better than having it zoomed into to get 16:9, but have the top and bottom cut off.
I don't know why it's hard to understand that having the complete picture without half of it removed is superior. You can still zoom in on literally any TV from the past what like 15 years at least, right?

Dude, back in my day, I'd regularly have customers bitch and moan about "the black bars cutting off my picture" when they'd rent the widescreen edition of something by accident. People are idiots.

Well just zoom out then, duh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
