With over 72 hours of footage uploaded every minute, it’s physically impossible to keep track of the content on YouTube. But in YouTube Guide, the Daily Dot will curate its five favorite finds for each workday.

1) Pitchfork TV, “CeeLo Green ‘All I Need Is Love (ft. The Muppets)’”

Cee Lo Green gets lost on his way to a Christmas party in Atlanta and ends up running into Kermit and the rest of the Muppets. Instead of driving in the nasty weather, he joins their party—with a visit from Santa and a callback to an old Muppet Show favorite.

2) Brett Domino Trio, “Ultimate Christmas Medley (40 Songs in 1)”

The Brett Domino Trio always receives requests to cover Christmas songs around the holidays, so they found 40 of their favorites and put them together into one medley that, despite the eclectic mix of tunes, flows rather smoothly.

3) The Ryan and Amy Show, “Likes”

Some people will go to any length for constant online validation. Ryan and Amy need likes on Facebook, and they will go to any length to get them through drug deals, job loss and even advertising blowjobs on the street.

4) Unsolicited Project, “Gay Women Will Marry Your Boyfriends”

Girlfriends beware! We already know that gay men will marry your girlfriends while gay marriage is still not legal nationally, but now gay women plan to wed your boyfriends in a parody of the College Humor video, for the same reason: They relate to each other better.

5) Jose Barrientos, “Speech 101 Prank FINAL”

Bilingual comedian Jose Barrientos took a speech class this semester and, in order to mess around with his classmates, he faked an exaggerated Hispanic accent for the entire class. He finally revealed his real accent during his fourth and final speech, to a mix of shock, disbelief and “I knew it!” from classmates.
