Haven't laughed that hard since post 16771. Worth the re-post though, the breakdowns are incredible, and the rap part.

It's good but it's a pearoast from kernowsibley
damn you hanged up, damn you to hell -
The thing that completely bemuses me is the 'gotta get down on friday' line. What the fuck does she mean, when she said she has to 'get down'?
She's not old enough to drink, and this music video certainly doesn't seem to or want to infer drug use or sex. It doesn't really seem to make sense if they just mean relaxing. I don't know, it seems like they've reflexively lifted phrases out of rap songs with absolutely zero thought to the meaning or context of their original use.
Whilst I grant that a) that's not the worst thing about the video by far and b) appropriating phrases like that is common in slang as well as music, it's still the thing that bakes my noodle.

(Sounds more like Slipknot than death metal to me but still good)
Pearoast=Shit
Yeah I know, but to your average music joe...

From EI magazine:
[QUOTE]Originally Posted by Professor David Belcher, University of Philadelphia
The song ("Friday" by Rebecca Black) and it's accompanying video, appears so uncreative and banal in the extreme that one automatically assumes it to be some sort of satirical joke on the state of the current pop music business.
The fact that it has quickly become the basis for an avalanche of internet "memes" and parody musical recordings illustrates that whilst intelligence and talent may be missing from the work of Miss Black and her writers, it is found in abundance in the fertile brains and swift hands of those students and workers across the world who spend their time surfing internet fora and video sites such as "youtube".
Not only have the "nerds" won, but they are building a brave new world.gotta agree with that[/QUOTE]
except that the producers and Black will be able to retire on what they earn from the third-tier losers who have bought a song they would never have been aware of without the publicity created for it (drum roll) by the 'swift-handed' internet nerds. Funny how the phrase 'brave new world' gets trotted out here as an aid to the Professor's short-sighted approval. I mean has he even read 'Brave New World'? Has he read 'Amusing Ourselves to Death' (written in 1985)? I mean that shit was stock knowledge by the time I was at Uni, and don't get me wrong, Huxley was a massive catalyst for drug taking and pseudo-intellectualist gurnings even then..
"What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture.. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny "failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite for distractions."
I mean I shouldn't need to say all this really, should I? I mean are the bored twiddlings of internet addicts really being mistaken for intelligence and creative fertility by a University Professor?

true, the monkey barfing is gold
Firstly, its not a monkey its clearly and ape, note the lack of a tail, its the easiest way to tell the difference between a monkey and an ape.
Secondly it is a statue by Tony Matelli called Ancient Echo
