Hey - I'm surfing around ...just killing time, yeah, I want know the 10 hidden adult jokes in my childhood favorite films.

I wanna know 10 things I didn't know about Parks and Rec. So sue me, but quit ####### up my computer.

I don't get to see this dreck that I want to see because within seconds my computer immediately slows to a crawl and then eventually freezes for minutes at a time until I just have to reboot.

Why would these ####ers do this? Its not a Russian pirate video site trying to scrape info ...right?
