Youtube Oscars!

....aaaand here are the results from our First Annual Youtube Oscars Festival! Many videos were entered; few had the vigor and robustness to be called the best.

In the category of Commercial, the winner is this old Ayds video.
In Movies, Minesweeper Trailer took the cake.
As for Music Video, The Count Censored was unrivaled.
Of the videos in Painful, the favorite was Breakdancing.

In the overly broad and prestigious General category, there were simply too many awesome videos to decide! The winners are this magnificent trio of gems that truly captures the essence of Youtube (to be watched in order!):

Infantile Confusion

By Nikhil Sud, '10

Overheard, deliberately, at the Gymboree

Guy: Who is the adorable pram-dweller?
Lady: This is Baby Rumbold.
Guy: Baby Rumbold?
Lady: Yes.
Guy: But why do you call him Baby Rumbold? 
Lady: Because he's Baby Rumbold.
Guy: No, I mean why the "Baby" part? That part's understood, isn't it? Is it because Rumbold is an adult-sounding name?
Lady: No such thing as an adult-sounding name.
Guy: Of course there is. "Alexander" for instance. "Alexander" sounds like a man, like the king, certainly not a baby.
Lady: D'you mean no man called Alexander was ever a baby?
Guy: Quite likely.
Lady: Well, it's apparent that you don't know very many babies. And that's sad.
Guy: With due respect, madam, you have no right to comment on the company I keep.
Lady: It's just sad, that's all.
Guy: All right, I suppose it is. But tell me: if it's not because of the ridiculously baby-inappropriate "Rumbold", then why is it that you preface your child's name with "Baby"?
Lady: Oh yes, that. Well, otherwise people would get so confused!
Guy: Confused?
Lady: Absolutely!
Guy: Why, is there someone else in the family called Rumbold? 
Lady: No.
Guy: Right, and if it has nothing to do with how adult "Rumbold" sounds, why then would they get confused?
Lady: Well, they need to know he's a baby. Otherwise - and Heaven forbid - they might take him seriously. Shudder!
Guy: Alright, but won't they know a baby when they see one? I mean, isn't it rather obvious - with the small size and all?
Lady: Small? Sir, you have gone too far. I'll have you know that my baby isn't small! He's big. And sarcastic.
Guy: Sarcastic?
Lady: No.
Guy: No?
Lady: I'm being sarcastic.
Guy: But you're not Baby Rumbold?! 
Lady: No, I'm Woman Lily, this is Baby Rumbold and you are confused. Told you this would happen.
