Filler Tangent/Jokes

This is for tangential scenes added only for filler or humor that are not required to understand the main content of the video.

This includes:

Timelapses / B-roll
Fake Sponsors
Slow motion clips that do not provide any context or are used as replays or B-roll footage
Bloopers
Irrelevant/ tangential content
- Content creator being distracted by something unrelated to the video
- Unrelated highlight clips that don't provide any context, are not elaborated on and don't fit into preview

If any other category can be applied (mute or skip), choose them instead. Filler Tangent is the lowest priority category.
In most cases, fillers should not be mute. Mute fillers should mostly be used for chaining to a skip.

Not included

Similar to other categories, do not mark entire videos.
