Craig Ferguson has figured out why everything sucks.

I think analyzing the undercurrent tone and message of this piece is probably a prodigious waste of time. You could have easily just posted "I didn't laugh."

fwiw, it took me longer to view the clip that you linked than it did to type up a quick reply

so of the two things, the bigger "waste of time" was the clip you linked and as opposed to the response I wrote - but I'd classify neither as "prodigious"

I assumed you posted the video to start a discussion on the content of the video.
