Revenge is a dish best served cold

The laugh track and the sped-up video let you know it is really really funny. Were they not able to get the rights for Yakety Sax?

Also:

Since the snow is too high to walk over, people have to use the shoveled path the janitor made.

Ironically, that is the funniest past pf the whole thing. Where I come from, that much snow is a signal to wear shoes instead of sandals.

Well yeah. I think the humour here wasn't what the creator was intending, because I look at that snow (oh hey it looks like chunks of the sidewalk outside my apartment) and I'm just like, "Seriously? WALK ACROSS THE FOUR FEET TO AVOID THE STUPID BENDY PATH." (Which some guy does around the benches about 3/4 of the way in.)

Having pretty much spent the last 20 years of my life considering jeans and hiking boots part of my dress uniform (because, you know, one day their might be a mountain in the lab that I'd have to climb) so I could almost derive some schadenfreudesque pleasure from people who can't trudge their way through four or so inches of snow. But then the laugh track and sound effects beat any such enjoyment out of me in short order. It's like fractal victimization.

Remember, it's only news if it snows on the east coast.

This video is like most Iowan days, other than no one bothers to shovel until the snow stops.

(Oh and sorry for the laugh track. By default I watch videos on mute.)

Jaysus, that was only about six inches deep. When that guy finally just went "fuck this" and walked straight through it I said "Hallelujah, someone with a brain!"

Funny, though.

C'mon you guys. Those people aren't stupid, they're game.

Wouldn't that guy be more of a groundskeeper than a janitor?

Jaysus, that was only about six inches deep.

That would be a considerable exaggeration, I think: in one of the early low-level shots of the guy shovelling, the snow looks to be at ankle-level.

He's really tall though.

It is very good, chuckle good, with the sound off. I also watch linked videos (default) with the sound off
