Is the commercial promoting learning English so you can better appreciate English-language music, or is it so you don't accidentally play inappropriate music? I'm very confused.

Yes that French commercial is amazingly funny and of good taste.

There's this one that goes a bit too far even for my tastes, but it's still....interesting to watch

Someone was paid to make that. Just think about that for a minute.

Also... why is the ladies room so massively graffitied with ambulatory vaginas?

Kids keep spouting that YOLO mantra every time they jump head first into a pile of snow or order the biiig burrito at some dinky Mexican place. NO. If you're going to use that as a motto to do stupid shit get your big balls out and do something cool with it and jump out of a plane or ski down the black diamond pro only slope or buy a motorcyle and go to races on the weekends.

I'm apparently crazy for wanting to skydive though so what do I know. Guess that's too "yolo".

The women's restroom on average is almost always dirtier than the men's.

Though the nastiest messes happen they seem to always happen in the men's room.
