This short was a meme among bronies during MLP's first season. Yaridovich would put it on in his Synchtube in-between every run of episodes. It was also the source of "confound these ponies, they drive me to drink," which I think is still in a lot of articles on memes generated by the show, even though no one uses it anymore.
Sometimes, I think Yaridovich put on the short so often because I begged him to. Sometimes, I think it was because a bunch of people, including me, begged him to. Memory is a bitch.
