For those (like me) who don't know what a Tamagotchi is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamagotchi
"The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable." – James A. Garfield

Jaakko Keskinen

I had Tamagotchi as a kid. I can't recall if I bothered to feed it...
"Javert, though frightful, had nothing ignoble about him. Probity, sincerity, candor, conviction, the sense of duty, are things which may become hideous when wrongly directed; but which, even when hideous, remain grand."

- Victor Hugo

Karl Henning

I cannot imagine that Tamagotchi is anything that would pre-empt my girl's being in the mood.

Indeed, Paul Griffiths observed that Messiaen was "a more conscientious ornithologist than any previous composer, and a more musical observer of birdsong than any previous ornithologist."

No, it doesn't!  Best workaround is to save this bit of code:

[flash=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/v/CFA6dEwWOb4[/flash]

Which, semi-parsed, is "http://www.youtube.com/v/" + the YouTube video ID
