Saw this over on the Mad Decent Blog. This video is almost too ridiculous to understand. My take on it is that this guy is a guest on a talk show and his skill is dancing and kicking burgers off a vintage ski pole. What I don’t understand is why the host starts rapping. Maybe he does it every episode, I dunno.
UPDATE: My friend Sanaz who is Swedish offered this explanation.
hahahahahahahah OMG too fuuunnnnyyyyyyy!!! It’s a norwegian TV-show with norweigan celebs from 1990-something hahahahahahah OMGGGGG. It’s starts with the guy saying how Norway is always said to take after US and the Americans and how it creates a culture clash hahahahhaha……and he wanted to illustrate that clash with a “burger-game”. RETARRRRRDED funny.
Can’t wait for this

Four pencil-thin, quasi-pubescent girls shuffle onto the stage of the Strand Theatre in matching outfits: black T-shirts with a pink logo that looks like smeared bubble gum, black Spandex biking shorts, black sneakers. They’ve come to this nearly empty theater in the blue-collar Dorchester section of Boston in late May to audition for a talent show, which explains why they look identical, all the way up to their shoulder-length perms. Three of the girls, wearing metal-frame glasses, line up in a row and the fourth stands in front. A prerecorded music track begins to play, causing a series of metallic beeps like cheap sci-fi sound effects to echo around the Strand. The quartet begins to clap rhythmically and make small side-to-side movements. The girl in front starts to rap. Her recital is wooden. Her words are indecipherable. (more…)
Check out the Neptunes Beat Drop over at MetalLungies.com. I, along with a few other people including Skillz, picked our top 5 favorite Neptunes songs and talk about them. Here’s my abridged list:
1. T.I. “What’s Yo Name” off I’m Serious
2. Jadakiss “Knock Yourself Out” off Kiss The Game Goodbye
3. Ludacris “Southern Hospitality” off Back For the First Time
4. Beenie Man “Girls Dem Sugar” f. Mya off Art & Life
5. Clipse “Grindin” off Lord Willin
Runner Ups:
Nelly “Hot In Herre” solely because of the Chuck Brown sample
Noreaga “Superthug” because that’s when I became aware of The Neptunes
Fabolous “Holla Back Youngn” strictly because of the two-way alert in the song
Mystikal “Danger” and “Shake Ya Ass” because nobody else could get away with those songs

My boy Alex from college came up for the weekend; chilled on the beach all day. Saw THE WACKNESS tonight, was really really good. I highly recommend it.
Also, these were waiting for me when I got home!
I kinda like the track. Beat is interesting. Not as much coke talk as usual.
Thought this was pretty funny
