It's awful, I'm always curious to know. (It reassures me I should go on posting quotes :)) But whenever I'm tempted to invent some sort of rating system for quotes/jokes I know its doomed (for lots of reasons, eg: been tried; depends on the person; depends on the immediacy; depends on knowing the people in question; saying "lol" is fun, but clicking "8/10" is boring :)).
Particularly "I'm sorry, I'm just not ready for a relationship right now." "...How about now?"
:) Yes. It was hard to encapsulate in text. The video was potentially worrying -- funny in places, but I felt sure it was playing on lesbian stereotypes I don't have, but are bad ones in some people's minds, and I couldn't tell if it was doing so in fun, mocking the stereotypes, or making fun of lesbians. But I felt that deserved quoting, though it was better in the original :)
