A couple of months ago, we showed you a video of firefighter Cory Kalanick rescuing an unconscious kitten from a house fire. Some said they liked the story, but did not care for the video. Now the footage has been made into a GoPro ad with more to see and less text. At the risk of repeating a story, I think it's worth watching. -via Viral Viral Videos

See? It's a medical condition!
"Are you finding yourself constantly afraid of X? Does your fear of X negatively impact your life? You may have a clinical case of chi-phobia, and our service can help you overcome your fear of X"
But the template must have been near completely unsupervised using whatever was the largest list they could find, as it included all sorts of joke phobias with the same dead serious pitch. "Does your fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth interfere with your performance at work?" "Does the fear somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you impact your romantic relationship?" "Did your fear of palindromes leave you traumatized as a child?"
Sesquipedalian (literally "foot and a half long-ish") is already a silly construct, but to say that "River Horse Monster Foot and a Half Longish Fear" makes any medical sense is ridiculous. Technical medical terms are meant to clarify, not obfuscate.
One is reminded of all those idiotic lists of animal lists claiming a "crash of rhinos" or a "mask of raccoons". The kind of crap written by a puddle of douche bags.
