Barsepssays...HUGELY entertaining, so have a *doublepromote & *quality.
Thanks for posting
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Barseps.
Double-Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Sunday, January 6th, 2013 4:12pm PST - doublepromote requested by Barseps.
Barsepssays...I'm gonna invoke *Timeshift here (as it's the nearest thing I can think of for theme)
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Timeshift) - requested by Barseps.
Orzsays...I pondered the idea of tagging it as comedy and realized it's only directly funny if you like or know both actors.

KnivesOutsays...Cute but very predictable.
mxxconsays...I don't get it...This supposed to have some sort of message but I'm not getting it.
Orzsays...I'll try to summarize it for you based on YT comments and personal feelings. Jenny Clarkson (aka Hannah) encounters 3 different yet visually similar people in the course of the day: a distracted driver, a potential boss and a homeless man. She allows common stereotypes and her personal feelings on the matter to drive the opinions she "voices" both mentally and reactionally. The real point is, everybody is human. We let stereotypes and our own personal sense of being "the center of the universe" (a fact which some will try to deny) compel the actions and reactions of our daily lives. We assume things about others and form immediate opinions of situations and encounters as a kind of built-in survival mechanism. Although many of us wish we could treat people equally all of the time, those opinions whether expressed or not will always exist.
To quote Darwin from S01E09 of SeaQuest DSV, "The center of the universe is in you."

Sagemindsays...I just like how it all comes back around.
Some guy sitting at a stop light is startled and confused over some Deja-vu scenario he is going through. She is there to witness it, annoyed, and unwittingly falls into the same schism, as she is set on a similar path.
Only this time, the guy having the original hallucination becomes that delusion and she sees him not once but twice during her experience.
It ends with her being the person sitting at the green light in the Deja-vu scenario, the same as the first guy, with someone behind her honking.
The twist is that her delusion is a strange loop of the first guy's delusion.
We are left to wonder how the first guy's delusion started and continued and we are left to wonder who will next take on the delusional loop - the person behind her, honking, maybe?
I don't agree with @Orz's explaination. This story held no allusions to stereotypes, opinions of others, equality or anything else like that. (at all) That' just reading things into it that aren't there..
I saw a great loop of events that make you stop and think wow, that's some messed up trippy Twilight Zone stuff right there..

Orzsays...While I like Sagemind's explanation; perhaps mine was influenced by the purpose of what the maker of the film quotes as the reason for creating their videos in the first place.
SoulPancake
Our brain batter of art, culture, science, philosophy, spirituality and humor is designed to open your mind, challenge your friends, and feel damn good.
The FlipSide
Our narrative series in which characters struggle with life's questions in both a comical and heartfelt way. Written and directed by award winning filmmaker Ben Shelton of SheltonFilms (recently of the web series "The Daly Show").
I purposefully left all of this information out of my original post of this video so that people could view it and walk away with their own opinions on what they "saw". And I eventually got to quote SeaQuest DSV; so it's all good.
Orzsays...*kill
siftbotsays...Permanently discarding this video - kill requested by Orz.
