I&#8217;m not really a YouTube denizen. I usually go there looking for something specific, and usually don&#8217;t click through to related videos. The longest I&#8217;ve spent on YouTube at a time is probably in the tens of minutes. Up until last night, that is.

He gets <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vr0um7DKiEQ\">really frustrated<\/a> if he can&#8217;t get into boxes. And pretty much anything called &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yhSBuohHn0c\">Desperate Maru<\/a>&#8221; is worth watching for the sheer persistence of the thing (there are a few videos named that). Apparently he also likes to put <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ofrSio_jZO0\">bags on his head<\/a> (he does this in several videos, including one with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Mt_4bFjyYuU\">bubble wrap<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>And today, just to round out my cat video tastes, I watched this one of a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Vw4KVoEVcr0&#038;feature=player_embedded\">kitten dreaming<\/a>.
