Lightning rod videos - those that have generated some of the biggest debates and most heat at the Sift, either in the form of downvotes or comments.
I find this to be an interesting place to showcase videos that reveal something about the "group psyche" of VideoSift: examples of videos which may or may not be particularly welcome here, or which generate some sort of strong response.
To keep things interesting, there's also some examples of videos that may not be particularly outrageous, but which incidentally drew drawn-out arguments and debates over topics both serious and silly.
Poor guy.
