Okay, I laughed out loud, and felt empathy for the modern version.

Bonus points if you read the bottom.

It's really mildly annoying that I start working somewhere that blocks YouTube and you all go YouTube happy.

Anybody willing to volunteer to represent any YouTube links as ascii animation?

Do the block content, or just the URL? Does this link work?

Visible MOJO, GD! Thanks!

LMAO!!!!!!! This is part of what I do. I am sending this out.

Embedded YouTube videos are blocked as well. I can access your URL but there's nothing in it.

what about non-youtube flv files? can you see the menstruation vid I linked to in the Girl Stuff thread?

Maybe, but I'm not going to try.

But yes, I'm sure that if the resource is coming from a non-blocked source it would play fine. But I'm not looking to circumvent the company policy (if I were, getting to LiveJournal would be much more important to me).

It was more a bemused comment on the fact that now that I can't easily see them suddenly it seems like half a dozen YouTube videos are getting posted here every day. (Frequently with just a link and a "wow, this is funny!")

I am in the same boat, Alex.

I can view 'em, but the computer I use 99% of the time at work doesn't have sound, and I don't have headphones here to use with the one that does have sound.
