This video is both funny and emotional, I guess?

I dunno, maybe I'm just feeling sucky, but this video made me cry. I guess it was just thinking about how we all have problems, and mine aren't so bad, and after all, they're shared in one way or another with pretty much everyone else on earth.

(Except losing to Sweden in a sport. I'm pretty sure that's not something I'm burdened with.)

EDIT: OMG you should mos def follow the elves if you want to see all sorts of cool shit like this here. Also, for every person who follows them today, they'll donate money to Comic Relief.
