I had wanted to link to an authoritative copy of this video (it has been uploaded to YouTube a dozen times), but the creators (T. Jonesy and Killa) have no web presence. I think they used to, but took it down for fear of prosecution for copyright infringement.

This video is simply a humorous karaoke, but its heritage is slash fiction, fan-authored fiction about romantic and erotic relationships between same-sex characters in popular culture.

There are of course other examples out there that are not so subtle.

Perhaps not surprisingly, the entire sub-culture has attracted academic study.
