The video doesn't play at all for me, no message or anything, hitting the play button has no effect.

That's very odd.. I'll get on it


Same here even on CollegeHumor's web site!

Since collegehumor is one of the supported ones for url transmogrification, just paste the URL instead of the embed code, then hit "validate".

I haven't noticed, but CollegeHumor is doing it.

dangit - the original seems to have have been replaced on collegehumor with the this current garbage.

Damn collegehumor's autoplay went to the next vid before I copied the embed.

Reminds me a little of Powerthirst.

Hey, buddy. I don't know whether you'll be checking your profile much now that you've been sent on the CircleLine cruise, but I wanted to tell you that I for one am rather disgusted by the way this played out. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Northeast Irish-Catholic (now non-superstitious) liberal, and I don't give a flying fick about your politics.

You've been a QUALITY submitter & commenter here, and were probably one of the main reasons I came out of lurkdom and became a Sifter. When I saw your banination, I spent about two hours reading comments and looking at your submissions to try to rationalize your dismissal, but there just wasn't enough. I may be only a GoldStar, but I've been here longer than I'd like to recount. In all my days, I've seen few Sifters as committed to the QUALITY this site intends to promote. I suppose there is much to your banination that I'm not privy to, and I'm very sorry for that. Even though it seems you have trolled quite a few members in the recent past, I think this decision should have been opened to investigation and consultation with the community at large.

Over the last years, we've had a disappointing diaspora of QUALITY members, but yet you stuck around. As the years have progressed, the QUALITY of submitters and high-level, long-term members has dwindled. I came here for people like you, like @Farhad2000, like @eric3579, @djsunkid, @mlx, @silvercord, @dystopianfuturetoday, @NetRunner, @kronosposeidon, @dag, @MarineGunrock and even like Choggie. You are among these names.

A (seemingly) long time ago, this site celebrated its diversity of both style and opinion. We've banned, and supported the banination of conservative trolls in the last few years, but only because of EXCESSIVE violations (eg. CaptainPlanet, and (to his unfortunate discredit) Choggie; this is NOT an exhaustive list). I've watched the progression, and while I agree with the socio-political principles of those in support of the exclusions, I cannot but think how the actual QUALITY of the site has suffered.

This was a place I came to enlighten myself, with submissions like this, this, this, this, this, this, and this (which is truly just a smattering of the QUALITY you've brought here). I used to hit the VideoSift link and expect to see submissions that I wouldn't have seen elsewhere. Unique submissions, with a higher intellectual quotient than the rest of the horse-apple internet digest sites. But now it's a site nearly indistinguishable from this one, and this one, or this one. Certainly (and obviously) I like and frequent those sites, but this is VideoSift, and I have always expected more bang for my buck.

I'm sure you've realized by this point that this comment is not just for you to read, as it both is public, and draws the attention of many other QUALITY members of the community. But I assure you that whatever the reaction, I want you particularly to know that you've affected my understanding of the world-at-large in a most positive way over the last four years. It was a privilege to have had your influence, and I will miss it.

No worries

I went searching for possible victims of the collegehumor vid id change, in order to restock the deadpool, they're usually easy powerpoints Of 200-odd pqueue'd collegehumor vids, approx 150 were actually dead, 30 post-dated the change, and 15-20 had been noticed, deaded, and fixed already.

dead


Fixed and thanks. :

It's on YT here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UAymPJqAxo

But I guess CollegeHumor has disabled embedding. Despite the fact that, you know, they embed other stuff directly to their own site. >_>

It's not quality acting without lip biting! Robert De Nero bites his lip in every movie!
