The World Wide Web is nearing its 20th birthday, believe it or not. Those two decades have wrought countless changes on our culture, arts, communication, economics, even religion and cooking and sex. The Internet has changed everything it has touched. It has shown us such wonders, delights of which humankind had dared not dream.

On this day, in this moment, it has reached its pinnacle. It will do no better than this. Everything that follows this is merely commentary.

You must watch the whole thing. At the 4:00 minute mark, that's when things hit the stratosphere.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Alan Rickman making tea in slow motion.
