As long as this is being discussed, anyone noticed the ridiculous amount of Promoted videos? especially on the queue. Right now there are 6 or 7.

promoted videos should be queued and displayed one at a time. there should be a button on the front page (near hotness and newness) that would let you choose to display just the recently promoted videos. those are supposed to be creme de la creme so why not flaunt them on the front page?

The Cadbury Creme egg season is indeed the deadliest of all seasons in Canada. We hope you enjoy our exported, grim harvest.

Sorry I'm late to post here, but I just woke from my week-long hangover.

But seriously, I understand the plight of wrongly mixed drinks. I once mixed Four-dollar-fifth of gin with Diet 7-Up. I thought I was going to hurl BEFORE I was drunk. Which is a crime in Kuwait, I think.

A short list of great drinks that have made me do terrible things to bar stools:

AMF (Adios, Motherfucker)
Long Island Iced Tea (tip the bartender for that extra special Kelsey Grammer amount)
Cherry Bomb ("Bomb" is right. I think I invaded a sovereign nation while drunk on 13 of those fuckers.)
Rattlesnake (something involving Kahlua, Creme de Cacao and taking off my pants at a house party.)

However, the worst combination I have ever tried:

A six-pack of Bud Light chased with an entire pint of Jagermeister and a few swigs of Goldschlager. You don't even want to know the medium Jackson Pollock used in THAT bathroom!

Now it's time to get drunk on PBR and watch midget porn.

Yup, she's a dupe...

I know I can't... but... *discard

*beg as it's the weekend.

I can't believe the other Creme Eggs got me a Top 15 but nobody wants to vote on this!!

Sorry chogs, but it's a dupe. I remember because I promoted the original:

That's what they do with the reserve supply of creme eggs? They make a slowmo movie to torment us? Screw conserving oil, save the creme eggs!! How cruel...

That's a nice story too.

Yeah, it's funny how the little furballs grow on you and sneak their way into your heart. They become irreplaceable members of your family. Thanks for sharing your story. It's good to have friends of both the hominid and non-hominid variety.

A very nice story Kronos.

Your Homer reminds me of a former kindred kitty furriend that I once knew. His name was Murdoch, and he was a retired creme-colored Persian show cat. I met him by accident, and he wasn't actually my kitty to begin with, but a neighbor's. I would sometimes be sitting on a bench outside, and I'd see him come into the yard and I could make him jump up and sit right next to me just by tapping the bench! He also knew the sound of my car and would be waiting right in the driveway looking right up at me from where I opened my car door. He showed me trust and love that I didn't really see him show anyone else. I don't know what happened to him, because one day he just disappeared. I tried to find him, but I think he went away somewhere and died of old age. I cried a lot because I didn't get to say goodbye to him :*(
It's funny how these furriends pick US human animals, not the other way around!

And funny. I love the Tidy Cat bucket, because that's what I used to buy. It reminds me of the only cat I ever owned. He was a big fat white stray I found, so I dubbed him "Homer". And he was the BEST cat in the world. (No offense, Issy.) He was affectionate as hell. I have a beard, and when I laid on the couch to watch the tube he'd jump up on my chest and start nuzzling my face with his.

One time during the summer a moth got in our apartment. It started flying around one of the lamps in the living room, and old Homer just sat there and watched him for at least 10 minutes. Suddenly he shot his paw out at the moth and CAUGHT him, and munched him right down. It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen a pet of mine do.

Poor old Homer died a few years ago from bone cancer in his jaw. I still miss that kitty.

Why is this in animation?


>> ^Sarzy:
...because it's animation? Just guessing.


That, my friends, is the definition of "pwned".

>> ^gorillaman:
The bin one was fantastic, omg. Rather disturbing the way the eggs always strip off before they die.
Maybe ditch Cooking for British?


The bin one was great.

>> ^laura:
that was absolutely amazing.


Yes it was, and also absolutely disgusting. Maybe because i was eating a creme filled donut while watching her eat the after birth...

Some of the stuff that went ballistic when it got sifted was very difficult for me to get the initial ten. I don't know what it is. I've given up on videos that eventually tons of other people liked.

More selectivity would be great, but selectivity based on what? The stuff I like the best is rarely the stuff that zooms out of the queue.

Another thing, we have a two tier system now, with a numerical ranking within the two buckets we have (sifted and not-sifted). The channels make for communities. Perhaps after you have contributed to the life of a channel enough (moderated it, voted for it, sifted to it), you can be part of the voting body to take videos to the next tier for that channel. that is, people who really really like the lolcats and cute doggies and such (of which I have posted some myself) get to vote on the creme de la creme de lolcat videos, and so on. I mean honestly, there are people who have the submission history to be more worth listening to with respect to world affairs for instance, and I care more about their opinions in that area, than that of random people who came by to vote for the boob video their buddy told them about.

I'm enjoy some right now! Well, minus the creme de cacao, ice and double cream

Yeah, that's pretty much my plan. I'm going to be working on a new article for cookingtalk in the next few days. My plan is to tackle cheese addiction first. Then I'm going to handle creme brulee.

Process suggestion for http://cooking.videosift.com/talk/Cooking-Class-with-DJsunkid - seems a bit of a free for all with joking and OT comments, including mine. How bout:

- treat the thread as as in box.
- address stuff you want on your blog.

IMO this would work a lot better.
