There was a huge story in today's Wall Street Journal about this video of an argument on a Hong Kong commuter bus on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSHziqJWYcM

It's the "Lazy Sunday" of Hong Kong right now: 5,000,000 people have watched the videos, and it has spawned the catchphrase "I've got pressure!" and now has T-Shirts and parody videos.

Pretty funny stuff, especially when they start talking about moms.

It's totally real. Somebody took the video with a cameraphone. Funny stuff.

I can't believe 500,000 people were duped into watching that.

these people should try riding the bus in ocean city maryland.

First of all, what kind of camera phone has the option of taking a 5 minute video?

Secondly, who translated it? The subtitles were AWful.

The thing was bizarre.

I'd rather get a shirt that reads -- WHY DID YOU AGGRESS ME?
