Ok, now that I’m finally done raping people I can respond to this thread. That video is hilarious and Antoine is awesome. ---

Our next item on the agenda is the proposed change to the usage of the term “threadshitting”. While this term will remain in standard usage, a this proposal would add a new adaptation into the lexicon. Upon ratification of this amendment, any hijack of a thread stemming from a complete misinterpretation of the OP will henceforth be known as “threadraping”. All in favor? ---

What really makes it funny is no one got raped or hurt. ---

> [@Miller](#): > > This double subversion is what makes the video funny, but also communicates a message that, at its center, is very positive. The cool thing about the Autotune the News remix is that it adds a third layer of subversion, because it recasts Dodsons’ words as a diss rap. But not as your typical diss rap–yes, Antoine attacks his enemy (“so dumb”, sarcastic use of “homeboy”), but it’s fueled by positive righteous anger rather than mere boasting. An interesting take on an increasingly tired genre. ---

When I first watched the video, I thought it was mildly amusing. But the more I think about it, the funnier it gets. My sleep was interrupted this morning at 4am and the first thing that popped into my head was Antoine. I totally got a case of the giggles thinking about him. He makes me so happy. ---

NPR has a story about the meme and the people. [Transcript here](http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2010/08/05/129005122/youtube-bed-intruder-meme), along with links to Dodson’s personal appearances and some of the best ‘covers’ of the Autotune song. I do wish with all the publicity they’d have an update on locating the attempted rapist. ---

Dodson now has an [official website](http://www.antoine-dodson.com/) with merchandising, the top of which reads “The profits from this store will go to helping Antoine’s family get out of the projects.” More power to him- I hope he rakes in as much as possible during his 15 minutes. I’ll probably at least pay $1.29 for the I-Tune of _Bed Intruder Song_ to give a royalty to him and to the Autotune the News guys for the enjoyment.
