Just in case we hadn't already gotten enough of Star Wars Kid, Evolution of Dance, lonelygirl15, Susan Boyle, Keyboard Cat, or anything else on the great Tube of You--now we have the dubious opportunity of watching all manner of Internet rants, antics, memes and outrageous stunts in supersize.
That's right--it's YouTube XL, optimized for that old relic in your living room, and it'll provide up to 10x more fun and obnoxiousness for the whole family.
First, the interface: everything is bigger and is of variable width. The menu is on the left hand side, with options for watching videos, searching for videos, and controlling specific settings. Once you have selected a video, you can watch it, expand it full screen (it looks great fully expanded on a big screen), and browse through related video playlists or create your own. YouTube XL also supports HD video...
One growing pain YouTube had to go through was the dropping of comments and other "community features", but really, is that such a bad thing? Think of it as a bonus: you get to turn the screensize up, while turning the stupid down.

SCANDALS! SCANDALS! SCANDALS!
EMERGENCY! EMERGENCY! EMERGENCY!
SO VERY, VERY, VERY MANY THOUSANDS OF THE WORST CASES OF RACIAL PREJUDICE IN WORLD HISTORY!
LONG LIVE PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!
Barack Obama is a racial minority and does not like racism.
WORLDWIDE DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION RELATING TO SCANDALS:
(I) I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed atrocious, racist, hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.
(II) It is opined that Bill Clinton committed terrifying, racist, hate crimes during his presidency, and I am not free to say anything further about it. ‘Be sure your sins will find you out’ (Numbers 32:23).
(III) What if basically all racial minority people would subscribe to the interpretations that George Herbert Walker Bush committed monstrous, racist, hate crimes while he was the President of the United States? It will eventually come out: it is only a matter of time.
(IV) I know it may be hard to believe. However, Ronald Wilson Reagan committed horrible, racist, hate crimes during his presidency.

‘If only there were a BAN against INVENTION that blocked memories or bottled up memories like scent so they never faded & so they never got stale.’ (Once again, please consider an illustrative analogy: like scent that is held in or restrained or inhibited or suppressed or “bottled up.” Please feel free to go to baidu.com, type “ban invention that bottled up memories,” and hit “Enter.”)
