For the best videos in the history of YouTube. All sh.itjust.works server rules apply here. This is an archival community so moderation will be strict to keep the quality of posts at a consistently high level.

Some Rules

  1. No reposts unless it's been over 12 months and the original post wasn't highly upvoted.
  2. Tag NSFW
  3. Videos must be from before 2018. If they have been deleted and reuploaded, please make a note of that.
  4. Videos need not be originally from YouTube. If they were uploaded to some other platform (atomfilms, ebaumsworld, newgrounds) but fit the definition of an internet classic, that's fine. But you must post a link to a YouTube reupload, not to another website.

Explain to me why those three tires roll up the ramp. I first saw this video on ebaumsworld pre-Youtube, it's looked wrong to me for twenty goddamn years.

At 25 seconds in, one wheel that has been knocked off a component I don't recognize rolls across the floor and hits another wheel at the base of a ramp, which is nudged forward and then accelerates up the ramp as if something is applying a torque to it until it hits another wheel, which does the same thing.

It has a weight inside at the top. Before being knocked is balanced, then the the weight 'falls' forward causing the tire to seem to be rolling up the ramp. But the center of gravity is going down.

Loved this period of jobs adverts. Really liked 'hate something' too

I hesitated to post a straight up advertisement, but to me, some are so clever, funny or well produced, they're deserving.

It is a nice concept, just felt like they should have done it with something other than all those ugly car parts.
