When posting links, please add some description

I would really appreciate it if people who post links to things, especially videos, would add at least a brief description of what it is they're linking to.

Personally I find videos of people "doing the robot dance" a waste of time. I don't mind them being posted here - just say that's what it is. That way people who like seeing people do the robot dance can click, and people who aren't interested can skip it. There's enough good stuff posted that I *do* want to look at, that I don't want to just skip everything (as I do on some other forums).

Just a couple of words in the subject line is all it needs, usually. I'm not asking for a complete synopsis (though I wouldn't complain, either!).

That's what is great about this community. The diversity in what people enjoy. I happen to enjoy the robot dance although most of the stuff on youtube is pretty bad. I will however sift through the garbage when there is the possibility of running across something outstanding. And every once in awhile something does pop up. I do sympathize with your plight though and should I post any relevant links I will do my best to remember a short description.

I know what you mean. I really find these multiple movies to be really iritating. What's worse is when you click a link to a japanese site, and you suddenly get what can only be described as 'autopsy porn' and asked to find some random fembot thing. Thankfuly, this second one is rare. But it has happened.

So please, tell us what you are linking to.
