  1. What an acidic attitude.

  2. i can’t stop watching this kid’s videos

  3. Is it homophobic for me to assume that he’s gay? I need some clarification. I want to be as progressive as possible here.

    • That’s a question which answers itself just by being asked, guy.

      • Also, relevance? he’s a kid!

        • Relevance? Why did Gabe post it? Why is it funny? Isn’t it because of the manner in which the kid acts and speaks? Because he’s “flamboyant,” right? Really, do we need to use code words here? I guess so. That was kind of my point. I wanted to see whether people would object to me explicitly pointing out why the video was posted, knowing that there is a small group of people on this site who go around trying to show just how more progressive they are than you.

          “He’s a kid”? Yeah, he is, and I think it’s really great that he accepts who he is. He’s attracting views on his YouTube page by being comfortable who he is and even playing up a persona. And that persona is flamboyant. Or call it whatever you want.

          My comment was G-rated and in no way reflected any actual negative feelings towards gays. I’m pretty sure that neither of the commenters nor any of the downvoters are actually gay. Because gay people know what real homophobia is.

          My initial comment and this one go to a larger issue. I love this site and I think the commenters here are brilliant, but there is a small contingent who can’t help but show how progressive they are at all times. Which is a weird thing to do on a website where pretty much everyone has the same position on social issues. I shudder to think how Norm MacDonald, Larry David or Louis CK would fare here as anonymous commenters.

      • I was kind of baiting, I admit it. Even though the answer was no.

    • Easy, Chuck Norris.

  4. That kid has mastered Sassbending.

    • His Sassbenditude is reaching epic proportions! He needs to star in the next Prometheus movie as David’s extra sassy sidekick protege!

  5. Yes? Someone rang?

  6. Dorian Corey has been REBORN!

  7. Does it make sense that he’s wearing suspenders and Mardi Gras beads? I guess he didn’t just get the beads, but they seem kind of incompatible.

  8. true fact: the mad magazine parody of basic instinct was called “basically it stank” which I thought was pretty rad and nifty parody title. rad parody.

  9. Why are you calling me what I can only assume is an insult? We don’t even know each other, man!

  10. I AM SO FREAKED OUT BY WHAT HE’S DOING WITH HIS LEG. Legs aren’t supposed to move like that are they?? Ahhhhh!

  11. incredible sass-flailing sass legs!
