What makes them beautiful

Two English actors reenact a YouTube comment fight

Idiots arguing in the comments section is a time-honoured tradition that has existed for as long as we’ve enjoyed the internet. Who would have thought something wonderful could come out of it?

Actors Grahame Edwards and Eryl Lloyd Parry reenact a hilarious YouTube comment fight between users “Sophie Danze” and “Jilianlovesthebeibs” on a One Direction music video. The actors are part of Dead Parrot, a YouTube comedy network with a ton of standup and sketch videos.

The video really just goes to show that you’ll find the most viciously clever sneers in the comments sections:

“So why don’t you just go and die under a tree?”

Oh. Snap.
