Why This Vid Kicks Ass:

It has dancing bureaucrats. Who are gods of death. Who sing about office policies. If that's not enough to explain why you need to watch this, I fear that a demon may have eaten your soul while you weren't looking.

This clip is something of a special case: the subtitles are a fanwork and a labor of love, but it's not a fanvid in other respects. Still, it's a thing of glory and not to be missed: in its mix of crack, humor, and underlying darkness, it sums up everything I love about the fandom. And as a nontrivial bonus, the perfection of the casting is an amazing thing to behold.
