Or just use the slang, "shouda". "I tol de boss, 'We shouda got oudda der". People will know what you mean, but they won't know that you don't know that it's supposed to be "should have" not "should of".

You should of watched the whole clip po, I don't know a lot of evil plotting swedish people, the last part of the clip was just him selling the product. Basically he was saying to use their software for powerful new ways to look at statistics.
So, it's not political. It's an infomercial. People are posting up infomercials, infomercials selling charts and other people are saying, "Wow. That was great!" This is a whole new level of... geekdom. Shoulda put up a warning.
I've got interesting books to read and yesterday I watched an egret hunting frogs in a swamp*. I don't need no chart infomercials.
*The egret was unsuccessful during the five minutes I watched.

"Check it out, a clearer way to look at statistics and thus a better understanding of the world around us!"
"STOP SELLING ME CHARTS DAMNIT I'M WATCHING FROGS."

a non-profit swedish organization doesn't sound like they are trying to just "sell a product." Has anyone gone to gapminder.org yet? I don't really see things like they had in that video. I was trying to look up what's happened in Japan since the 1995 sarin gas subway terrorist attack, but couldn't find anything for it.

The topic seemed pretty interesting, didn't watch the entire thing. That guys accent is adorable though.
