Sharpen your No. 2 pencils for the final exam of Professor Brett Erlich's Viral Video Film School. If you successfully handle questions involving the likes of the "Double Rainbow" guy, you'll receive video "treats" in the form of puppies doing super-cute things. Full disclosure: You'll get the treats regardless. Indeed, it's a good thing Brett's not a professor of psychology, since he obviously knows nothing about operant conditioning. But if the subject's fixing the flotsam on YouTube, he's definitely your man.
Viral Video Film School is a recurring segment on the weekly television show infoMania.
