 Rachmaninoff had big hands
Rachmaninoff had big hands [video]
Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff is famed
for having had enormous mitts and writing piano
music to match. So how do small-handed pianists
get around playing it? Here's an ingenious
solution. picked by Bornbad 2 months ago

Hilarious. I wish I had some sort of easy to use machine that could help me play like that. I suck at instruments.

I love how they get you cheering for the awkward guy in back by the end.

BB it's probably been downvoted because it's a single youtube video. some people have decided that youtube videos have no place on the front page.

That and the fact that it has been posted on Plime before but are too lazy to go find the original post.

Either way, even though I have seen it before and on Plime it still makes me laugh so the upvote from me is yours.

"SOME" people? The emphasis you put on that is a bit snotty and insulting but what the hell. It has been talked about for quite some time, perhaps as much as a year. It is also in the FAQ.

Single videos, like single images, single jokes, etc are not for the front page.

It is not "some" people. It is the community. The community has set the rules. Some follow the rules. Some don't. Some get away with it. Some don't. The rules - the guidelines of the site should be equally applied to all.

Long videos, videos that are part of a set, videos that are tied into a story, or maybe rarely videos that are exceptionally great can be posted to the front. Those are the rules as set by the community for more than a year now.

I didn't downvote this one until just now. Others are downvoting as well, as per Plime's guidelines.

The community being made of of "people" some of whom post videos, some of whom don't.

Some of whom upvote single youtube videos, some of whom don't.

So I stand by what I said.

If the "people" decide a Youtube movie stays, it stays.

People are fickle.

So from now on I'll downvote every single YouTube video that is posted. I thought we had a rule as far as dupes. One month, not nine. I haven't downvoted anything but spam for a long time. Get ready.
