... you are the person who they pretend to be making fun of.  I can picture a bunch of frat boys or sorority girls at some greek house talking about how funny that video was and how they were in it at min 2:12.  Otherwise, it just reminds me why that scene didn't appeal to me except in very specific instances which involved naive college girls and the joy of the chase.

I get the sense that, for all the irony, those kids really are the douchebags they're poking fun at in the video.

So does the self-reflexivity mitigate the douchiness, or only make them look more narcissistic?  Someone help here.

From my experiences, most of these guys appear to be pretty big d-bags, but are surprisingly normal, decent people. If they really were true narcissists, I don't think it would have dawned on them to make a satirical video like this.

I guess I might be laughing if I wasn't wincing. They may have the ability to laugh at themselves now, but most of them will never change. They just go out and perpetuate the stereotype by living the lives their parents did and raising children to be just like them. As a Jew, this offends me. We're not all like this, not even close, and for that I am thankful.

I agree 100%. Whether or not these kids are what they appear to be in the video doesn't matter. They have to understand that if they claim Judaism then they claim everyone who is jewish. As someone of that persuasion this shit makes me sick. Granted I have a bias (I really hate greek life) but its really stuff like this that annoys me most. Alot of people on this campus have a negative view of us as is and then they start talking about their bmws and patron, they are an embarrassment to our people.
