A French comedy sketch-song by Les Inconnus parodying wealthy young people from Auteuil, Neuilly and Passy by mimicking the style of banlieue rap.

I've been trying to come up with "self stabilizing" examples since yesterday, but think I finally may have stumbled upon one: "Prep hop" videos, like [link] or [this video] , may get forwarded by members of different subcultures for two different reasons: the first because they appreciate the comic satirisation of others, and the second because they appreciate how the comics have sweated the details of their own subculture — "we are like that only".

on HN thread Ask HN: How to survive as a homeless programmer in the winter (AB, Canada)?
Yes, this is helpful when you are outside by -10°C. You will die standing, literally. I would give my work on the spot if it helped me to survive and possibly get back on tracks. I don't know if you have fought like this, living in despair in the name of coding principles. If yes, good for you. If not then this is the kind of comment that reminds me of our French "gauche caviar", the people with position and money who discuss about how to fight for your rights before going golfing ( [this video] is the canonical comedy sketch for these people).
