Via the The Waygook Effect
Desk warming is when public school native teachers in South Korea are forced to come in to school over winter or summer vacations. There are no children at school and nothing productive for them to do. It is a tad frustrating, as you can see from how Hitler reacts.

This is totally the funniest thing I have seen in ages, I was ROFLing and I must have watched it 6 times. It reminds me of the time when I worked at Elementary School years ago and I had to sit at a desk with nothing to do. The facebook comment is hilarious and the subtitles are right on!

Hilarious! Thank you Waygookeffect for making my day!
