"We Didn't Start the Flame War" Funniest thing I've seen in a dog's age!
This video is hilarious! It's totally on the money. Flame Wars aren't bad on DU because we have great Mods but on other sites? It can turn into a real bloodbath. Check out this vid for a laugh! NSFW because of language.

16. That's happened to me before
Post something that barely even gets noticed, and then watch someone else post the same thing and it makes it on the Greatest page.

Oh well, can't win 'em all. Just know that it happens to everybody.

19. Sometimes it is just timing - the post scrolls off before very many see it
And the next time someone posts the same subject, it happens to be when a lot of people are browsing. :shrug:

25. Does Billy Joel know that someone ripped off his
"We didn't start the fire?" (for the boomers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP0APvTSMMw

to adjust it to the "whatever" generation?

62. Yeah, everyone's a fag, eh? Hardy har har har!
It's Gay Pride week in San Francisco, and this video, which is I admit, funny and creative, is swimming in fag this, fag that. "Fag" is the new "nigger" as an insult. Yuck it up, Democratic Underground, with little smileys LMAO and ROFLing.

And before you say: lighten up, this video was making fun of the people who use that term, I say substitute the n-word and let's see how far that explanation gets you. BTW, I don't use the n-word, I don't like it, and my comparison to it's use is done to break through the mindset that it's okay to just throw the term around and not hurt people by saying it. Evolve people, evolve.

63. I'm going to say it anyway. Lighten Up!
Part of the video is about making fun of stupid, racist comments on sites like youtube. I would post one that said "the n-word" oh noes! So scary! When are the thought police going to break down my door??

Is fag part of the American lexicon? Yeah, so's spic, nigger, kike, chink, slant, coon, mackerel-snapper, polack and about a million others. They aren't going away. Would you ban there usage from movies, internet and comedy?

I wouldn't post some dude going "white power!" or "God hates gays!" but I'm going to say there is a difference between satire and racism/sexism/homophobia.

I would suggest you "evolve" a sense of humor.
