I support net neutrality...

But I don't want to see some girl have sex, I don't care for what cause. Nice for attracting don't-care-about-nothing teenagers, but the rest of us are adult enough to have interest in an important subject without needing a lame "hook."

Explain what this link is

Explain what this link is about re: 'lame hook'

The actual subject is an important one that most are probably unaware of or the fact that Google are involved and that an important bill is being read in Congress?

I would have preferred a link to a proper article on the matter.

The title of the video is 'How to Have Sex with Me? Subscribe & See!' which has nothing to do with the video's subject matter and kinda detracts from the message they're trying to get across.

Just followed this link from

Just followed this link from the YouTube page: seriously, if Net neutrality is such an important issue, don't degrade and ridicule what you're trying to do with such tacky stunts as this (reading the ToS it's almost hard to believe it's not a piss-take).

Not just the title, Hugo--

Not just the title, Hugo-- the little bit I watched and read (I did also follow that link to the other site), makes it seem like, you-the-viewer won't be interested in this topic, so we'll have this girl shove her *beep* in your face while seriously discussing this issue, and then she'll have sex, because, lawlz, she's not a Virgin supporter. Lame joke, good subject.

Although I will admit that toostupidtobepresident.com got me a bit more interested in the Bush Administration and what all they were doing... so I'm not saying people can't present a topic in an interesting way... but don't degrade me with bull*beep*. That's all I meant.

*edit that first beep wasn't anything gross, didn't know it would beep.

I'm sure it was bleeped for the misspelling. That's technically/biologically/anatomically 'ea', not 'i'. Laughing out loud

spelling

I always thought "ea" was used by the British only, and that as non-British slang for boobs the i was appropriate. I guess it's a deliberate mispelling that got popular like phat.
