So I was perusing through YouTube the other day when I came across a great video I'd discovered a long while ago. I remember absolutely loving it when I first found it, but then looked at the view count and realized that not a lot of people must know about this fun little clip. So I thought to myself: "I wish I could share this with more people," as we all like sharing things we ourselves enjoyed, so I got to thinking of starting a thread where readers could share all those great, non-viral videos they stumbled across but that just never got much attention from others. Just an idea. Thought I'd give it a shot. - This first one was one of the oddest, yet strangely fascinating music videos I've ever seen. Get's really catchy the longer you listen to it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWpABztwc3s

Awesome idea, Captan! How many view counts does it take before something's considered 'viral?'

@the-only-other-person-who's-replied-so-far, You know, I was having trouble figuring out the specific definition of "viral" myself. At first, I figured an appropriate view-count for a commonly unknown video would be anything under 100,000 but then thought that even videos with around one million views doesn't necessarily make it popular anymore. I just came to the conclusion that you guys would be able to judge for yourselves what would be considered viral and what's non-viral. My personal rule for myself, however, is: if the video was referenced by any other somewhat popular website, most likely it's because it's viral. For instance, this video here has over 3 million views. Some of you may have heard of it, but then some may not have. This is for the latter. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvB-lIcHHPQ- Mind-blowingly for myself, I had no idea this was even an actual game (apparently praised as being "the best" mario game ever made) until I saw this vid. Hope I don't get flamed for my ingnorance.:12:

I was thinking of posting a video I had just stumbled upon, but it had 43million views. Also it was a bit NSFW. And slightly disrespectful to women, but it's so stupid that you can't be offended.

Was it "Show Me Your Genitals?"

Yes, yes it was! Did you enjoy it? My brother thinks it's the best thing ever.

It was more awkward than enjoyable. Like watching Michael Cera act. If you want humorously sexist entertainment, check out Gaston's marriage proposal from the Beauty and the Beast musical. And for the love of god, don't take it seriously.

How could you take that seriously? It's inconceivable! Here's a cool Fallout fan movie! youtu.be/Q9UwlAAnlmg
