First! (And you can't kill this thread.)

[Tahlvin]

And just like everything else, Kyle makes this thread devolve into cat videos...

[Cazmonster]

Cute cat videos, I know where the internet keeps them.

[Elle]

helicopter, a horse, a shooting, the gas dispenser and hose, the haystack, etc. The one at 2:51 just destroys me internally, I can't even explain. It's SO freaking hilarious. And right after that you get a really powerful few minutes - the guy with the sidecar, the inexplicable driving on shoulder through puddles, the hysterical man who can't drive his construction vehicle, the jet plane, etc. WHATEVER HAPPENED at the 4:00 mark, just stupefying. By the time the jet plane comes I am literally covered in tears and it's almost anticlimatic. Sometimes it's the slow playing out of the inevitable, like 7:19... it's just... going... poorly and then... I seriously can hardly type this post because I can't watch the movie without collapsing into outright, snot-covered weeping. The whole front of my shirt is wet. I don't know what the heck it is about this video, I really don't. The fact that other people put it up there implies that other people find it as funny as I do, but I don't know. Maybe it's just interesting or fascinating, horrifying, whatever. Ron will watch it and like, crack a smile or chuckle a little, and meanwhile I'm laid out on the floor incapable of breathing, shaking all over. One of the first times I showed it to him, maybe the second time? I remember laying under his chair and helplessly clutching at his ankle every time a new scene came on.

And the people! The people who appear to just bounce up as if nothing happened. Or the two that just walk off and abandon the wrecked car!

But the ultimate moment, the ultimate of all time, is at 9:22. If you're ever overwhelmed by existential anxiety, depressed about the state of our community or politics, or just feeling helpless in a sea of crap, all you have to do is watch 9:22. And btw yes that is an aurochs; extensive research confirmed this.

This post is now seven words long.

[Cazmonster]

Eight words are needed to continue this thread.

[Tahlvin]

Just nine words is all that is needed now.

[TheMaster]

ten words would be way too obvious, so here is eleven.

[Elle]

Listen here, listen you, I can do eleven too, and shall.

[TheMaster]

Oh yeah? I can do one better and that would be twelve!

[Elle]

THIRTEEN apples up on top, we are not going to let them drop!

[Tahlvin]

Carl Friedrich Gauss was the answer to the trivia question. And this is fourteen.

[TheMaster]

This is really getting a bit out of hand, especially when this gets larger than sixteen

[Elle]

I saw him standing there by the record machine
I knew he must have been about seventeen

[TheMaster]

There you were, so enthralled with my words, that you didn't notice we skipped fifteen

[Kyle]

[Cazmonster]

[Elle]

I'm eighteen and I don't know what I want
Eighteen
I just don't know what I want
Eighteen

[Cazmonster]

Seventeen! Mama drama's got to go, dad
Seventeen! Nothing's gonna bring her back
Seventeen! Experiment with something living
Seventeen! 'Cos I'm sweeter than 16

[TheMaster]

That lasted too long!
Not sure what went wrong...
I'm certain of one thing,
This post is EIGHTEEN!

[Elle]

Sweet things from Boston
So young and willing
Moved down to Scarsdale
Where the hell am I?
