Like laughing in church

Late this afternoon, my sister took a break from her hectic hotelier schedule to forward me the following video, complete with a short note, which read: "Is this me or what?"



The first time I watched the video, it made me feel a little sick because a) ouch and b) it could very well have been Red running across my screen and crashing into the unforgiving pavement.

I was horrified when the video automatically began to play again. I covered my eyes with my hands, because I couldn't bear to even look at it long enough to remove it from my view.

And then...I peeked. That's when the uncontrollable giggles began. My boss and I were the only ones left in the office and, because we share a cubicle wall and I was supposed to be hard at work, I tried my damndest to be quiet. Just couldn't do it. By the third time I watched the video, my entire body was shaking from the force of the suppressed giggles. There were tears streaming down my cheeks and I accidentally allowed two obnoxious snorts to escape.

It's a little reminiscent of The Great Riverwood Bike Race of a year ago...during which Red flew over the handlebars of Anna's new bike, landing on someone else's lawn where she was subsequently seduced by this thing, who happens to be very married.

But, you know, if that poor kid is anything like my sister, the laughs we sick bastards are getting from the video have made all of his physical pain worthwhile. Just look at this face!
