She made it for fun, it got discovered by fangirls, it took over the internets, suddenly that’s what everyone knew her for, she had to write an FAQ just about that song, and now’s she’s scrapped it… but the comments keep coming. I feel kind of sorry for her.

Dude in the office across the hall from mine has this as the ring tone on his cell. I’ve warned him repeatedly that he needs to turn the volume down on the device if he doesn’t want me to kick down his door and destroy the thing with my teeth.

I _love_ you! _MWA!_

This Finnish folk song, to my mind, is more enjoyable than at least 20 of the current U.S. top 40.

And yes, it’s been playing as I read this entire thread.
