I got an email last night reading the following. IMO its just the icing on the cake. As if the large mass of morons and 12 year olds posting on youtube wasn't enough... now there is this.

If you wanna spare yourself the reading, they deleted a video of mine because I used the beginning of Smashing Pumpkins' Doomsday Clock
