Check the definition of Cafe Society: **Our salon for art, drama, literature, movies, music, comics, cuisine – all the artistic disciplines – if it’s about creativity, entertainment, or leisure, it goes here.** You said yourself it was funny. That makes it entertainment. But moving it was something to do, right? ---

Hell, MY feeling was that I should _close_ it. **Dex** is just a nicer guy, that’s all. For those of you viewing this and wondering what’s so “hot”: the link is to a video of a bunch of girls in bikinis holding up signs advertising a Topless Car Wash. When guys pay and wait for service, a buncha big fat men with no shirts run out and wash the car. Three or four different dupes are preyed upon before the video ends. **Dex** considered this “funny.” As I said, he’s a nicer guy than I am. ---

well, I thought it was funny regardless of the forum it is placed in. It is equally as funny as the stripping magic act that is on another thread. ---

I think his plan to kill it wasn’t because of the video, itself, but for the orphan link. It’s frowned upon to post a link without, at least, a little explanation or discussion. Just sayin’ It was pretty funny though.🆒 ---

> [@picunurse](#): > > I think his plan to kill it wasn’t because of the video, itself, but for the orphan link. Thanks, but I don’t think so. He wanted to kill it only because he didn’t think it was funny. He even went so far to ruin the joke by telling what the whole thing was about. This second mod didn’t have any business in the matter. The first mod was shown to have moved the thread illogically, so then the other one jumps in to defend the first mod. Ah, but now you’ve done it, PicuNurse! 😃😃😃 You’ve given the bully a respectable reason to kill it: The orphan link. ---

I thought it was pretty funny, even though I had seen it before. What’s that from, ‘The Man Show’? ---

I don’t know where it’s from but you can go to… > **[Google Videos](http://video.google.com/)** > > Search millions of videos from across the web. …and watch any number of clips. Some are truly educational - like the 51 minute presentation on Human Computation. Maybe not at all what you’d expect, but most interesting. I just discovered this site yesterday, and now have a bunch of people temporarily addicted. I guess it’ll wear thin soon. ---

I thought it was funny at first, too. But then again, I just gouged out my eyeballs with a rusty spoon for seeing it. Quite literally → :smack: Tripler Tricks like that are an affront to humanity. 😃 ---

Had you _literally_ done a self-[enucleation](http://www.tsbvi.edu/Education/anomalies/Enucleation.htm), you would be: a. Bleeding all over your keyboard b. Unable to see the keyboard c. Screaming in pain d. All of the above ---

> [@BarnOwl](#): > > If it’ll make you feel good, kill it. Thanks. I really don’t care if it’s funny or not, but OPs with just a link and no attempt at discussion by the original poster tend to get closed pretty quickly. Basically, we want something meatier. (It doesn’t have to be worthy of great literature, but the OP does need more than a link.)
