    Embedding...A Head's-Up

    Just wanted to point out that Youtube is currently not allowing "embeds" for all videos posted there...well, one can embed a video in one's post, yet it will not work. Instead, a notice comes up when one clicks on the vid, stating one can only view the item at youtube.com .

    I was having difficulty placing vids in my posts the other day, more than likely this is the reason.

    Exactly how DO you embed a YouTube vid here? Seriously, I'd love to know...thanks!

    My advice is to go for the alien abduction story. Look bemused, dishevelled and on the verge of tears as you recount your story of intrusive and degrading medical tests.
    Worked for me anyway. I still have colleagues asking me what it is like to fuck a green womanoid with seventeen breasts.

    Been like that for awhile. If you're going to embed, check the info section of the clip. Underneath the URL (grey box) on youtube, it will say "embedding disabled by user request," on vids that can't be shared.

    If you're going to debed, leave $20 on her pillow.

    CLICK "QUOTE" NOW THEN READ THE DIRECTIONS. Hope this helps!


    Below is how most youtube links will look:

    All you need to do is eliminate everything up to, and including the first = sign by changing it to

    So you'll be left with the at the end.

    Below is how a finished embedded video will look:
