What's your tolerance levels?

I prefer to view something funny, short and sweet that will actually make me laugh out loud. If it's longer than 2 minutes then i'll give it a miss because i just can't be arsed. It has to make me laugh within the first 15-20 seconds. If there is to much to read in a 'link' and it doesn't stike home within the first 3 sentences then i just can't be arsed Brick Wall

Seeing as i'm the first reply.... I may be within your 15-20 second demographic.

My response is: Who gives a shit? If something is funny, it's funny. I'm not running a stopwatch and giving it a deadline.

I can't be arsed clicking links that are posted on the site unless it's text.

Streaming media sucks arse.

Less than 20 seconds as people tend to close the windows quite quickly....

Depends. If it's a 5 minute clip with 5 minutes of quality entertainment, then fine. If it's a 1 minute clip from someone's phone where the only funny bit is the last 5 seconds, it's a pain in the arse.

I don't care how long it is. I can tell if I like it in the first few seconds. If I don't, I close it.

I'll quite often download it anyway, if I get bored I pause it and wait for it to stream whilst reading other threads. Then I'll play it again but skip forwards to see if it gets more exciting.

I downloaded someones 180meg video on a lap of Nurburgring, only watched about 3 minutes of it.
