Oh, boy.

So a little over a year ago, I was browsing YouTube for Spy Kids clips (shut up, I love that movie, it's good brainless entertainment) and discovered, to my horror, that nobody had uploaded the little ditty commonly known as Floop's Song or Cruel World.  As I firmly believe that this is the absolute best part of the entire flick (Dude, it's ALAN CUMMING singing a song by DANNY ELFMAN.  How is this NOT the best thing in the history of ever?), I took it upon myself to rip the scene from my DVD and upload it to fix this.  I took care to disable embedding, because I didn't want this to discovered by the sort of people who like to send out C&Ds and thus have it pulled from YouTube.

Mostly, this doesn't seem to bother people - it's my most-viewed video at 13,179 views.  Given that after it, my most-viewed video has 3,965, I'm more than a little irked about that.  There was one person who asked why it wasn't embeddable, and I told them my reasons for it.  They seemed to accept this, as I never heard anything about it again.

Today, however, something changed.

I got a comment on the video from one Rasputin433 that said only this: "enable embedding dammit!!!!!"

....yeah, I'll get right on that.

Being a spiteful, petty, vindictive bitch at times, I sent back the simple answer of "No", and promptly disabled syndication of the video as well.  I also added a little note saying that I would never enable embedding.  We'll see what happens from there,
