Based on [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=650221), which is the opposite and totally had me in tears. Now I’m all depressed.

I want happiness darnit!

You can post videos that are cute too, or that will make me smile, or think “OMG that’s awesome”. Here is my contribution:

Thank you! I love everything so far. I have seen different edits of the British voice-over; some were in there, some weren’t. So I still laughed. I have seen the kitten one before but none of the rest which quite surprises me.

Gato, get in the mood! 😛

I’ll add another funny one (to me):  
[[URL="[URL=“http://www.hulu.com/watch/4193/saturday-night-live-the-barry-gibb-talk-show”]http://www.hulu.com/watch/4193/saturday-night-live-the-barry-gibb-talk-show"](http://www.hulu.com/watch/4193/saturday-night-live-the-barry-gibb-talk-show)Barry Gibb Talk Show on Saturday Night Live. There are many of these if you are interested.

It’s on hulu, I apologize for international viewers. But parts can be seen on youtube.

Also, that’s Justin Timberlake doing a very good job in his role as Robin. I should know; I grew up listening to them due to my mother.

And Barry doesn’t really talk like that. 😛 But Robin did do that ear thing while singing.

My favorite “animals jumping on things” video: [foxes on a trampoline](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8xJtH6UcQY). I laugh at the way that one of them is really into it and the other one has no interest whatsoever.

That’s a little creepy. No matter how safe the situation actually was, I could not have calmly watched while a lion seriously tried to eat my baby’s head.

There are several others just like it, too. That one was shown on the local news last night, although it takes place in Portland.
