Oh come on, it's a LITTLE funny, at least the first time. The javascript one that made it dance around my screen and disrupt half of my production floor while I wildly tried to click the lyrics to make it go away was pretty hysterical, once I calmed down.

Al Gore and Global Warming fell in love, then they did a mommy and daddy hug and eventually the stork brought them The Internet.

No, it was awful. Anyone who has ever done it is an idiot and deserves a ban. Way childish and immature. Totally dumb.
