No further comment is needed.
Unfortunately I can’t watch that video. I’m on a boat.
O. :eek: M. :eek: G. :eek:
Is that supposed to be shocking or something? yawn
I think it’s supposed to be funny. And it was.
Okay, well, I laughed.
Yes. They thought the concept was so shocking and alien for today’s pristine PG world that they decided to blow your mind with that outrageous video. yawn
I found this one more amusing.
Well, welcome to 2 months ago.
But yes, I find this H.I. fucking Larious. It’s my ringtone, I shit you not.

Nice. I woke up my wife. Thanks.

This made me much happier than I was 4 minutes ago.
My favorite part is when Samberg is dressed in the Bush flightsuit at a press conference on the boad and the “mission accomplished” banner reads “I’M ON A BOAT”.
I’m personally a fan of cakerolls though those two were pretty good
Some videos I can’t watch. I get the message" Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe’s Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.

What browser ar you using? Javascript settings are generally somewhere in your browser settings. On Firefox, for example, you go to Tools > Options > Content and make sure the Enable Javascript box is checked.
Also, some security suite software seems to disable Javascript globally, for all browsers. When we visited my MIL’s place over the holidays, Javascript wouldn’t work in any of her browsers, and it took me a while to find the place in her security software to enable it.
Best user name/thread topic EVER.
This is the fist time I’ve ever heard this “T-Pain” person. OK. So, that’s his shtick? Pitching shifting his vocals. Doing the exact same thing Godley and Creme did on the song “I Pity Inanimate Objects” on their album Freeze Frame back in 1979?
Isn’t it that voice synthesizer shit Madonna used back in the James Bond theme she did? The stuff that lets Britney and the rest of them appear to sing on pitch?
Techno Viking is better.
Pretty much, except T-Pain does it with an autotune module, which wasn’t invented until the late 1990s. So he is really stealing Cher’s schtick.
ETA: You can learn all about T-Pain’s mad skillz from da Blizzard Man.
I saw it while I was out christmas shopping.
I think that’s a common trend in hip hop music these days. It could just as easily been T.I., Akon, or any other current hip-hop artist.
Rigamarole - I don’t think it’s supposed to be particularly “shocking”, just unexpected. The basic Lonely Planet SNL Digital Short music video formula consists of the following:
-Parody a familiar and cliched music video imagery (in this case, a standard douchebaggy house or dance video)
-Put well known celebrities (Justin Timberlake, Molly Sims and Jaime Lynn Seigler) in minor or supporting roles
-Pick one thing totally over the top (jizzing in pants)
-Film the video as ernestly as possible
So you have what would otherwise be a serious attempt at a genuine but cliched music video rendered hillareous through the addition of a ridiculous element.
