fahrquad Posted February 16, 2019 Author Report Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) I am not sure why some of the above posted properly and some only showed a link, but all function. Sorry about the ads, but at least they are short. Edited February 16, 2019 by fahrquad Quote

OceanBreeze Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 I don't know much about psychology, but maybe I can be of some help with getting your youtube videos to embed.

OceanBreeze Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) There is an over abundance of humorous threads here. The problem is, they are meant to be serious! (that's what makes them so humorous) Nobody gets banned for humor. Edited February 21, 2019 by OceanBreeze Quote
OceanBreeze Posted February 21, 2019 Report Posted February 21, 2019 No doubt. Humor is not universal. Mainly, I just wanted to help out with the issue of why some videos posted properly and why others did not. Quote
