Pro tip: when someone posts context-free links to YouTube, just extract the video ID from the URL and search on that. You'll get the title of the clip.
This was originally a method to avoid being RickRolled, but has proven useful when someone posts "this is fantastic" and the title clearly indicates that it's about as interesting as sitting near a fault line looking for the plates to shift.
