ok, how do I save this video to my hard drive? I hate flash videos and this is too good not to share with others.

I still can't believe this. This is the strongest reaction I've had to anything in a long time. I'm beyond baffled. I've been sharing it with others and they don't seem as blown away.

You must have an optimistic view as to how intelligent a typical fast food worker is.

This isn't about intelligence. I don't see this as a smart/dumb issue.

I only disagree because I think that blindly following suspicious orders from a faceless entity on the other end of a phone line is incredibly stupid. I think that not even stopping to think is dumber than having difficulty when trying to think.

It definitely adds a twist to the expression "supersize me!"

to everyone who thinks these people were "stupid" you may not be familiar w/ stanley milgram's social psych experiment on obedience. this is a page w/ basic information regarding the study. much more is out there on the subject.

if people believe theyre being told to do something by an authority figure they generally comply. seems outrageous but true.

The idiotcy defintely cracked me up.

As to the video: How could people possibly be so effing stupid? I was hearing two hours, then three hours...these guys couldn't figure this was crap after THREE HOURS? I would have thought three minutes would be way on the high side.

That's just not right. I have to think that at least the guy getting to do the sodomy on the idiot teenager knew it was a hoax, but found that the hoax was working out well for him, getting him a little sodomy action he thought he could probably get away with. He definitely deserves to go to jail. Nobody is that dumb.

The manager was pure dumb. Shows you how much like cattle people are and are willing to be.

And the teenage girl was dumber than a bucket of rocks, too. She is after all a teenager, and impressionable as hell and easy to intimidate, but still, she had to have known something was going on too. I don't hold her entirely blameless. This probably fit into something in her psyche, too. Even a child would know it's not part of doing the right thing to take orders to give strangers blowjobs or whatever.

The whole thing smacks of Stockholm Syndrome a little to me, in that the people must have known what was going on was wrong but adapted their thinking to it until it they were in their own little world where it wasn't outrageous to think it was right.

Yeah if the average teenage girl is that stupid then a lot more teenage guys would be getting laid.
