Signs of incipient decrepitude

I was in the corner shop buying bread with Julie and my eyes wandered across the magazines, pausing briefly on "Just 18" - the cover of which depicted various young ladies in states of undress, with a tagline of "So young yet so willing."  And I stared at them for a couple of seconds before thingking "Ewwww.  Why would I want to sleep with an eighteen year old?"

Hitler finds out about another Downfall parody - watch more funny videos

I got bored of these a long time ago - but this is fantastic.  Hitler finds out about the Downfall clip circulating on YouTube.  Meta to the max!
