It looks like YouTube has added special characters to its new video ids.
I couldn't get [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cbZKi8YjGU#![/youtube] to embed in a post but something like

That sucks. I'll see if phpbb has a fix. Otherwise, it may be time to modernize this here message board system.

Well shucks, you're right. I was confusing the dash as a special character which is allowed in urls. I thought the #! was part of the ID too.
Crisis averted.

Wait, who's the doctor? Me or Eric?
I want to be the nurse! I love the costumes.
Crap, I'm not even drunk and I'm positing crap like this to the boards.
