Ok, here are the videos I was talking about in class. They are short, but still kinda funny. Let me know if the links don't work.
The first is a video from the Dave Chapelle show about the 5th amendment.

The next is the very first Got Milk commercial about Alexander Hamilton.

You cannot access these at school, because most video sites are blocked.
