Youtube is fucking blocked in fucking china, why would china put requests to block fucking videos on a fucking site that doesn't fucking work in fucking china. You fucking MORONS. :) I mean this in the most kind and gentle way. sometimes a facepalm is the only way to go, such as this. Now Slashdot, please, collective facepalm.
