Elaborate 404 Page Is So Unfunny It's Funny

Screen Shot 2011-08-12 at 4.03.25 PMIn Spanish it's called vergenza ajena, in German it's called fremdschmen and plaatsvervangende schaamte in Dutch. What it is is second-hand embarrassment, and I just felt it, after being linked to this overly elaborate 404 page from startup Nosh. The "humorous" video, which simulates some kind of web hipster recconnaisance mission for a "rogue" web page is one of the most vergenza ajena - inducing things I've ever seen.  I am actually laughing at how unfunny it is.
