I’ve been enormously frustrated with the way YouTube works on the Mac, links aren’t clickable & to get anything happening you need to right-click (or control-click) a link to open in a new tab or window. I have found an app in the MAS that fixes the problem. https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/deskapp-for-youtube/id1180531112
Navigation is simple & logical, when you click a link it opens in the app, when right-clicking a link to open in a new window, the video opens in your default browser. This works for me because I have a Safari extension to download videos.

Ordering Thai takeaway over the phone from their published menu: you do your best with the pronunciation and the English-speaking staff member asks for the item number. You might as well call each one Dum Fuk Yoo Ar.
Head lice are now resistant to usual medical treatments.
The problem has scientists scratching their heads.
A waitress screamed "Does anyone know CPR?"
I shouted "Hell, I know the whole alphabet!"
Everyone laughed..
Well everyone except this one guy.
I work in a library and this guy came up to me and asked, “Do you have a bookmark?”
“Of course,” I replied, indicating the packed shelves, “We have thousands. By the way, my name’s Pete.”
