I am writing this post to warn you of a great danger. If you haven’t yet been to YouTube.com<\/a>, please, don’t you ever go there. Ignore all links that your friends are sending you. And don’t listen to any news mentioning it on TV.<\/p>\n

I made the tragic mistake of entering the site. And not only that – I came in exactly when I had five minutes of spare time!<\/p>\n
