I'm the opposite.
Spoiler :
So little time, so much to edit.
I have too many ideas and inspirations but have to remind to myself;
ONE. PROJECT. AT A TIME.

I did it. I also like to collect horrifying images for an AMV I've been working on for the past year with no end in sight...
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

Spoiler :
The main reason why I make videos without effects is that I really don't know how to do them well. And I've been too lazy to learn.

Spoiler :
I've decided I'll devote some time to learning now that I'm getting a new PC.

I still suck at effects as much as my old PC sucks in general. >_<
Spoiler :
I have had quite some epic ideas on amv's that would take me a long time to finish and would blow myself and others away. In the end, I just finish what I can finish in a few hours / a couple nights. :uhoh:

This.

Only less AMVs. Just about 20.

Spoiler :
I edit without effects partially because I like the challenge of portraying a feeling or story without going beyond what a live broadcast can do editing wise. But mostly it's because when I try to do anything with AE it fails miserably.
Spoiler :
I have around 50 ideas for videos I've started prep work on and thus have source and project files for, but no clue when I will finish them.
Spoiler :
I have countless other ideas just floating in my head with no clue when I'll ever start on them.

Spoiler :
Series with a lot of episodes intimidate me, and some of my favorite ideas are with 52 and 104 episode series. I have about 1/3 of a video done with the first 25 eps of the 104 series, but I lost all desire to go through the other 79.
Spoiler :
I think it's Code's fault that I enjoy working for MEPs so much. And Dar's.
Spoiler :
I'm already better at making AMVs than my husband, who's been doing this longer and placed at Otakon all 3 times he entered. I feel bad for his manliness.
Spoiler :
I want to learn how to use effects, but when it comes down to it, I don't think I would be able to use them properly. So far, I've never worked on a video and thought "Oh, this could really use some effects here."

Spoiler :
I'm way less impressed with just about every AMV I watch than I used to be. Also, I think I've become more of an asshole because of it.
