NSFW: Brendan Ryan’s Defense
[Setting – a generic office space]
Steve: “Dude. Did you get that email I sent you?”
You: “I don’t know. Lemme check. Oh yeah. What is this?”
“Just click on it.”
“What is it?”
“It’s an awesome video. Just click on it.”
[You click]
(In a whispered yet scolding tone) “What the fuck, Steve?”
[You close the window quickly]
“Awesome, right?”
“What the fuck is your problem?”
“I thought you’d like it.”
“I could get FIRED for looking at shit like this.”
“What? Nobody’s looking.”
“You know they log everything we look at, right?”
“What?”
“Yeah. They keep logs of every page we visit.”
“Really? … I gotta go.”
“Don’t send me shit like this again.”
“Yeah, yeah. I’ll talk to you later.”

I believe this is what they call pandering.
Coming from a Saucy Puppetshow you just gotta put a little weight into it.
