(a.k.a. "Future Chronicles" #1)
DESCRIPTION
Here's my first and last foray into the realm of the "five questions" video. This video was made for both fans AND non-fans of the "five questions" video genre (in fact, the non-fans may enjoy this even more). So to those who dislike "five questions" videos, be sure to stick with it past the first minute or so... just trust me.
BACKGROUND
What the hell is a "five questions" video? The origin of these mysterious videos has been lost in the mists of time... but basically, these are videos where people ask five questions and then wait to receive video responses from other YouTube members answering their questions. There has been a recent wave of "five questions" videos on YouTube, thanks in no small part to such prominent members as thefrozenghost, kenrg, and gpert (among others).
The questions I attempt to answer in this video were originally asked by thefrozenghost, whose original video can be found here:

Somewhere along the line, Peri Urban started feeling the pressure to reply to the "five questions" craze, so he made a half-hearted attempt in which he begins to go slightly bonkers. That video is here:

Then LemKuiper made a response to Peri's video, in which he does in fact go completely bonkers from the whole "five questions" craze. At this point, it became apparent that Scotsmen simply cannot suffer "five questions" videos. LemKuiper's video is located here:

And finally, my video is a response to LemKuiper's video (thus completing the chain)... once and for all? ;)
VIDEO REFERENCES
There are a couple of references in this video that some viewers may not understand for whatever reason. Here are the annotations:
gpert (aka "he who shall... yadda yadda yadda") is a very popular YouTube member who makes awesome videos. One of his videos was recently featured on the front page of YouTube. His channel can be found here:

"Heroes" is an American TV show that began airing in the fall of 2006. In an early episode, one of the main characters (wearing a samurai-sword on his back) tells another character that he must "save the cheerleader, save the world". This becomes an important mantra for the next few episodes.
I think that about covers it...
DISCLAIMERS
This video was made purely in good fun... I really don't have any opinion one way or the other about "five questions" videos or the people who make and respond to them.
Also, I apologize for the really crappy audio... I was too lazy to record it separately. I was also too lazy to finish a few of the visual effects properly as well... *shrug* I mean... it's only a stupid "five questions" video, after all. ;)
HAHAHHAHA that was HILARIOUS, it should be featured!
how do you feature videos on youtube by the way?

Thanks! As for features... no one really knows, but I've heard it's not so much a blessing as a curse, so I'm perfectly content to go on without being featured!
