Beanie, scarf and pretentious glasses. And reads off a concealed palm card like a Primary Schooler. Morons.

Damn!! I’ve been denied the pleasure of perusing these efforts, because at 18:34 21-Jul the links are broken due to the posters having retreated under the hail of fire from the RA fire support team that was covering the approach of the assault group.

Oh well…maybe next time.

You are all big meanies. They’ve removed it from you tube now. Must be a bit sensitive to the criticism. Shame – I wanted to see how bad it really was!

Wow, 17 posts and we all AGREE! Is that a record on RA?

Ha! Well spotted.

I had expected it to be some sort of black humour, basing it on high profile deaths (think Mully, the Saudi diplomat killed in Kingston, Joe Cinque etc).

Instead what we ended up with was a fat guy in a doona.

Oh dear. There’s nothing more painful than truly awkward people desperately trying to be funny!

the chick’s comment where she connects stranger danger and her small facebook friend list did *almost* make me laugh. no love, that’s not the real reason you don’t have many friends.

Woeful. Might have been useful if the film featured them being harassed by those persistent charity collectors in Garema Place – although I suspect after seeing this, I would be cheering for the collectors!

Total cr*p.

The videos are boring, but the title did appeal to me.

After reading the comments, I thought this would be bad as in entertainingly bad (a la Edward D Wood Jr bad). Instead it’s just naff.

rubbish

and when i say that, it’s no slight on our fair city.

here’s hoping canberra does actually do something useful for the world and removes them from the gene pool!!!

Truly terrible. And not in a way that needs to be experienced. Don’t waste your time.

Maybe I could be a comedian… I own a lapel mic, too.

This really is the s***test thing on YouTube.

Fancy perfectly good hard drives being forced to host this crap. Should be a law against it. Not to mention classes in the use of the volume slider, a feature embodied in even the most basic video editing programs.
