I was going to post this into the music section, or movie section, but I thought maybe more could enjoy it from here. While I watched, I was thinking, "this is why I like my YM"... this type of humor. He's made a couple of videos and has ideas for others yet to be made. It's one of the interest I have in common with him (some filmmaking, especially with humor).
Then I was thinking, should I post this to the YM/OW section? (Because I kept thinking that this kind of energy and humor must be a YM characteristic I've seen so often.) But then I realized the reason I think I like this type of shenanigans is because my dear grandfather was like this... and I remember him fondly as an old man, so this is really "AGELESS".
Hope you enjoy this. I found it while watching Youtube videos of the Danish band "Outlandish" who sang a really serious song called "Aicha" (which was a very lovely and reverent song about women and all we have to go through). Outlandish makes music that speaks to everybody - about family, relationships, friendships, religion, etc. (search for their name on Youtube if interested - there are a ton of songs there). They are a hip-hop/rap/ and other mix of influences, so they have a modern and traditional sound, both, but the messages are really serious.
This "band" is called "Foblandish" and is set to the same music as "Aicha" from Outlandish. When I found it, I thought it was another serious video clip set to the Aisha music. I realized somewhere in the middle of this song that the "fob" in "foblandish" stands for "Fresh Off the Boat". (Let me know if you don't get the bathroom scene).
(I hope this doesn't offend anyone... though it's old timers who were once fresh off the boat themselves that sometimes make the biggest jokes about FOB's - and FOBs could be from ANYWHERE).

PS: There's more after the credits roll.
