My favorite YouTube oddity: If you hunt over the CSS the site downloads on, IIRC, every page; you'll eventually come across this selector:

    ytd-watch-metadata[video-id=QrGrOK8oZG8] h1.ytd-watch-metadata {
      color:#e6d140;
      font-family:Georgia,serif;
      font-size:250%;
      font-variant:small-caps;
      font-weight:normal;
      transform:skew(-5deg,0deg);
      text-shadow:1px 1px #000,1px 1px .1px #000
    }
A selector that appears to be referencing a very specific video ID; as far as I can tell, the only video in the billions of videos on YouTube to receive this treatment (at least, in terms of a "css selector with video-id in it").

The video: Adult Swim's "Too Many Cooks" skit (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrGrOK8oZG8)
