Don't know if anyone has seen this, but I couldn't stop laughing.

It rejects my adblocked browser, so it's dead to me.

Is that link supposed to take me to something like this?  http://vodpod.com/watch/2746704-dramatic-reading-of-a-break-up-letter

If so, yeah I've seen that and its hilarious.

That *is* what it links to, just on YTMND.

Thank you for the (unconditionally) working link.  I did laugh some.  I think it's funny because that illiteracy is being given the fancy theatrical treatment.  Lawrence Olivier or Orson Welles would have made it much funnier.

Not for me.

This is what I see. (http://scottws.zapto.org/files/ytmnd.jpg)

This is the audio. (http://scottws.zapto.org/files/31bda25639a82af5a275c12e0a080f54.mp3)

Same thing in IE and Fx on this computer, and same thing in Fx on my MacBook when I tried earlier today.

YTMND links used to frequently fail when I was in the UAE. Here in Canada they seem to work more consistently.

I guess it depends on how they're routed.

This one is pretty good, but it's more due to the "Engrish" factor than just plain idiocy and illiteracy:  http://dramaticfloorballletterreading.ytmnd.com

The Keanu Reeves image really works with the guy's voice :P

Yeah, me too.  For me the issue was Adblock.  It wanted me to turn it off, so I assumed it wasn't going to let me past that annoyance until I did (and I wasn't willing to).  I guess you thought it was meant for you?  Haha!

Hey Scotty!

Oh, this time it worked, though I still get this blurb pasted on the right side of the page:

For me it is not AdBlock Plus related.  I get the message about ad revenue, but it does not matter if I have AdBlock enabled or disabled.  I get the same wrong YTMND every time.  I'm at work now and I'm still getting the same thing, though I am using the same MacBook.

It is only that one doing it.  I don't have trouble with any other YTMND that I've tried.

I don't think I was rejected because of Adblock anymore.  I think I'm having the same issue that you are.

That floorball is actually probably better than the dramatic reading of the breakup letter.  Especially the part about Malaysians.
