Jay Can Do It
As the YouTube commentator says--and I paraphrase--"What the hell was the point of this film?!?"
Let's look at Jay, the hero.
1) Likes to bake.
2) Can't use a hammer.
3) Owns a poodle.
4) Sets up housekeeping with a fellow male.
5) Admires a man in uniform.
6) "Jay is musical."
7) Carries a pocketbook-style basket.
It's an early gay-pride PSA!

Timber Bridge Inspection
Perhaps the single most boring video ever created. Utterly mesmerizing in its boredom. Boredom as art. Boring beyond belief.
What do you think? Any other contenders?

How to Keep a Job
The real payoff is at the end of this film, where everyone indulges in consensual fantasy role-playing.

Along with nabbing bad-guy Blinky, Superman sells Treasury Bonds, in this US-government-sponsored short.

Table Manners
Yes, even if you are left-handed, you must eat your soup with your right hand! Or else!
