Well, I suppose I just have more of a sense of humor than you expected then. Especially when faced with things that hit uncomfortably close to home.
I suspect most of the Dev team have had a few passing thoughts akin to some of those in the parody. A project of this length, with this many people involved in a learn-as-you-go effort? Yeah, If you can't laugh at yourself I bet you would quit or go bat-shit crazy, and since these are the left overs... errr... the Dev's who could stick it out...
(Of course there is absolutely no reason they can't be BOTH bat-shit crazy and laughing at themselves at the same time.)

As funny as I find the clip filled as it is with KS in-jokes directed at Devs I'm really doubting if most of the common run on YouTube will ever get the jokes. But then again, maybe I'm underestimating people. Maybe more than forum lurkers will understand it.
Even the tags on it made me smile. Fanwank and Devwank pretty well sums the whole thing up.

I had to fav it. This had to by far be one of the best uses of subbing I have ever seen; next to making Japanese anime avaliable to the unilingual person.

Now someone needs to dub it - it's very confusing if the Sub and the Dub say completely different things. Had to mute to watch.
Very funny anyway.
There's another version out there where Hitler complains about the vuvuzelas at the soccer worldcup:

There are plenty of versions. I think this meme is at least three years old, maybe more.

Well the film did come out in 2004 if i'm correct and I know it is still a popular meme; or poplar in this case.

It's an unkillable meme; the film company that owns "Downfall" had youtube remove all the parody clips, which were immediately replaced by Hitler complaining about the film company removing all the clips. I think they gave up after a while.
