For example, I'm laughing much harder at you for finding this funny, taking time to edit it in iMovie, posting it on your homepage, and then posting the link here (expecting... praise?), than at the movie itself.
For those of us that are not so anal and boring, this video should be funny. I see it as a good way to get away from all the Mac stuff going on. Now stop being so cranky, and go outside or something. It's no big deal, the kid doesnt care about being online. Stop whining.
Yeah. Stop whining and laugh at the cruelty! Then go and watch Fear Factor and The Chair, which train television viewers to watch torture!
Judging by viewer response, maybe you are correct.
Viewer response is hardly the measure of what is civil and what is not.

What, are you going to quote Galen, next? That's supposed to be impressive that you can make what you seem to think is a pun based on the etymology of "humorous"? Do you even HAVE a point here?

Yes. You're just another animal in the zoo. The problem is that you don't even see that you're in a cage. You've been TRAINED to find this funny rather than sad. You've been TRAINED to see this as comedy rather than cruelty.
