'Pinsanity': Comediva Mocks Obsessed Pinterest Users (VIDEO)

Pinsanity Comediva
A female comedy troupe has released a hilarious YouTube clip mocking Pinterest users

Pinterest is probably the best and worst thing to ever happen to the wedding industry -- and a women's self esteem, for that matter.

Perhaps the only equivalent to the level of profit for seamstresses and bakers -- whose yummy or gorgeous images are pinned and re-pinned across the site -- is the amount of bridal angst and competitiveness the site fosters.

Now, Los Angeles-based female comedy studio and website Comediva has captured the very essence of the site in a hilarious YouTube clip.

Dubbed "Pinsanity," the video pokes fun at the cupcake-laden site, by portraying the user audience as high income, style-obsessed divas who love to pin, shop and bake.

The video also mocks the jealousy fueled by the site's "like" and "repin" buttons which, in this case, cause a jogger to have her bra stolen mid-run.

What do you think? Is the video an accurate depiction of Pinterest?

Actually that was very funny! I think I'll save and re-watch when I need to laugh.

No where near the craziness I have seen on Facebook, from people posting very private moments online to scary stalker behavior.

One friend posted a picture with the location of a group of friends, until several people mentioned to her that one of the women in the photograph has moved to another state to escape from her abusive husband. Probably not a good idea to give out her location and in general I think some people simply share too much information online.

I watched that all weekend when I need a laugh, that is good entertainment (plus all my facebook pals were reposting it as well). The one thing I love about it is the that only a sweet, innocent looking asian woman could get away with something like that in real life! Although pinning the lady would get blood all over the place, note to self not a good idea.
