..... can someone point out the funny or interesting part of this video please? Thankfully it is only 35 seconds, but it should never have been featured.

  I find this hilarious. Sometimes you just have to accept that everybody has a different opinion @jcrider.... Feels like whatever YOU like, that's what you think should be featured.. Be a bit open more open minded.. Maybe you haven't even seen the Terminator movies?!

  Well, obviously edgy comedy is Dave’s department but since he is not here at the moment I will try to explain it. This is a subtly clever and cleverly subtle satire piece trying to bring into sharp relief how technology has infiltrated our lives. The spoon represents all the ways that technology in general and social media in particularl, though seemingly mundane, incidiously invades every aspect of our existence, taking us away from truly enjoying the world and relationships. The canned whipped cream and Barbie-pink dessert underscore how laziness has lulled our defenses to sleep, making it all too easy for this invasion to take hold. The cut to the preceding terminator movie is a swan song for earlier times when evil could be more clearly recognized and dealt with. By overlaying this motif on a spoon factory, we are asked to consider how all of this has transformed how we think about intimacy. Finally, the children on the swings in background leads to ask what sort of world we will leave to the next generation if we do not come to terms with the viral forces of destruction growing within us. Nevertheless we cannot help but laugh at the macabre irony of the self fulfilling story presented here which seems destined to repeat itself. Get it?

  Lol very good Noemoc, that made me grin :)..... and I think you just won the honour of having the longest comment on this site, :) well done. (On a side note did you get my private message I left the other day under the video ‘Every Episode Of America's Got Talent’?)

  Ha. But seriously JC, you don’t get why this is funny? Have you not seen the terminator movies? I mean I didn’t ROTFL but it was funny to think about.

  I do Mr Dave (the spoon being the T-1000, still killing people...), the real humour in this post is from Noemoc, cleverly done :)... and an opening line that is still making me grin :)

  Well like you say. It’s only 35 seconds. So even if you think it’s not worthy of a feature, you at least got a mild chuckle at a very cheap expense. Maybe not BOYT, and not WOYT, but perhaps NLTMAOYT? (Not Less Than Minimally Adequate of YouTube)

How do submissions work? I submitted a website (not sure how that works) but can’t see it under submissions. https://www.funnyordie.com/videos/661a77b3da/norm-macdonald-trolls-the-bob-saget-roast

  Beats the hell out of me Dave, I've asked that exact question several times in open comments. As far as I can tell the majority of 'screeners' who reject good videos, and accept ridiculous ones are gibbering idiots..... :) I hope that gives enough of a scientific answer :)
