oddly enough, repeatedly posting the same text in Idle just makes you look stupid.
You don't like? Don't read. Seriously, the interwebs are full of these things called 'websites', and you can 'browse' them any time you want by 'choosing' where you want to go. if you don't like them, don't go back.
There, solved your little problem.

I have enough mod points to mod down all the haters here as flamebait, but instead I'm gonna go ahead and flame them. If you must, you may mod me down. But I'm still right.
This section is called "idle" for a reason. It's off-topic. It's dumb. It's a waste of time. It's not even necessarily funny. And you knew it. But you clicked on the link anyway. Nobody forced you to do it.
If you really hate these stories so much, you can go into your preferences and disable idle stories from appearing for you at all. In the meantime, you need only suffer a tiny tiny fraction of main page area devoted to Idle links.
So stop fucking complaining. You know, there's plenty to complain about here, like the comment entry box size, and html formatting issues, but instead you attack the theme, which is a perfectly valid one... And by doing so, you all come across as humorless, intolerant assholes.
And, on-topic, while I thought the acting was a bit amateur, the concept behind this video was actually a pretty good one. With better acting, it might have had the air of veracity it needed to be really funny. I give it a B-minus (where an A-plus is given to "The Website Is Down").

What the fuck does this have to do with /.?!
Someone at /. HQ thought this was a good idea?
It used to be the S:N ratio went down here by the year.
Now it's by the day.
obviously no deficiencies vs. no obvious deficiencies
Nobody would ever click on this video to begin with if there wasn't a cute girl in the preview frame.
idle.slashdot looks like stuff my parents would send me. high five team slashdot!
Yeah, I'd file this under 'FAIL'. :| Ok concept, failed execution. And uh.. as others have said, why is this on slashdot?
Can all fish swim?
Idle is \not\ an example of a good idea gone unrecognized. It is just garbage being thoughtlessly tossed about. Please stop.
PLEASE slashdot, for the sake of your userbase, and for the sake of quality, ditch samzenpus. This place is becoming a shithole.
... RTFA was a little outdated.
So, who here actually WTFV?
