I think the YouTube video was beneath you. It's not even very good.
The YouTube video is a mistake. It doesn't contribute anything of value, and what's more, is not very good or even funny.
I thought it was pretty good. But I liked Springtime for Hitler in Germany, too. I particulary like the line: If I hadn't been so rowdy, I could have stayed in Suadi.
It's got a good beat, Dick, and it's easy to dance to.
Jihad, the Musical? Yea, verily, the end times are near. Or not.
Fess up, Juan. You like the dancing girls.
They are girls, aren't they?
