Thers Got Run Over By A Rai~ndeer.
Posted on December 26th, 2010 by Tintin
Thers lobbed a hand grenade but it was a dud. This should finish him off once and for all. (A word of warning, Thers — if you manage to survive Ai~n, we still have Mini-Moni’s “Telephone Ring Ring Ring” in our arsenal!)
I blame iMovie.
This video elicited a “what the hell are you watching over there?” so I had to explain this whole sick battle.
This video left me not only disturbed, but more then slightly aroused. Should I seek professional help or just roll with it?
palette cleanser, anyone?
J-Pop! Sweet IPU Tintin, have you no mercy?
Although I do have to say that the metal version rocks.
Ok, THAT is weird. Meant t0 link to a vid of a red panda head butting a girl.
Metal version palate cleanser.
I am unlearning spelling. I blame iPad.

GWB butting a constable. Same thing, minus the cuteness.
I think visual artists should refer to them as palette cleansers.
I tried to listen to the (moar) fucked up version and now I’m pretty sure my fam officially finds me r00d.
Should you need it, Tintin, here’s a nuclear option for you:
Rusty Chevrolet by Da Yoopers.
Thanks, DWW…very gallant of you to make me look less like a big stupidhead. 🙂 oh yes. I just emoticoned you.
Isn’t DWW a discount shoe store?
DAMMIT!
I BLAME IPAD!
DKW knows I swoon in the wake of his gallantry.
I swoon in the wake of his gallantry.
If he had a better hull shape, you might not.
Rofl. I know nothing of his hull shape!
When I die, I hope that lots of folks swoon at my wake.
Metal version The Wake.
GWAR goes carolling.
I thought for sure you were going to link to the funeral video in “Tapeheads”.
Wanting to be made love to by a man wearing nothing but a GWAR mask isn’t weird, right?
Metal version Tapeheads.
vs,
Were you serious about not knowing The Pogues?
I know of them… Just don’t KNOW THEM know them. Should I?
Dear lord yes.
DKW: my own personal Google.
Re: The Pogues– I will have to be schooled.
Everyone’s “Best Albums of All Time” list is going to be different since taste is subjective (aside from the undenizble objective and scientific fact of the suckage of Creed). But there’s another kind of list – albums that may or may not like, but “everyone” knows. A shared common musical heritage. Stuff like Thriller or Graceland or Rumours. Rum, Sodomy and the Lash is on that list.

You forgot Iolanthe.
am I officially uncool now? Because I am NOT giving up my laminated COOL card without a fight.
am I officially uncool now?
Why? Because you don’t know the lyrics to Iolanthe’s finale “Ev’ryone is now a Fairy”?
That. And and I’m not familiar with The Pogues’ work. *sobs*
Yes vs, you are as horribly uncool as all those folks who haven’t filled their iPads with Thriller, Graceland and Rumours.
I dunno, Ai~n here wasn’t what I’d call weapons-grade bad. Annoying, repetetive, and hyperactive, but anyone who’s endured a Jerry Lewis movie can stand that.
It did cost me an effort to watch the whole thing, I will admit.
This convo makes me nostalgic for when albums–proper ALBUMS–were part of my listening repertoire. It seems like these days my listening habits are exclusively of the a la carte variety. Can’t remember the las time I listened to an album front to back.
VS – I never was able to listen to entire albums, and I like the fact that you can now buy individual songs (I understand the audio-quality arguments against MP3 but the conditions under which I listen to music make them irrelevant.)
The only time I ever really played whole albums was back in the mid-80s when I was a college DJ for the 1:00am – 6:00am show and would sneak naps while they played, waking up fully only to do the hourly station ID.
Xeck, I like that too…but I guess I can’t help but wonder if perhaps artists aren’t making great, listenable albums anymore…or if I simply don’t have the attention span for albums anymore.
Set up iTunes to sort by artist and the albums (with a few fuck-ups) will display in order. That’s how I usually work my way through – I select who I want at the moment and let the albums flow.
I just use shuffle on my smart playlists but it feels like I’m always listening to the same stuff over and over again. Frustrating.
“Yes vs, you are as horribly uncool as all those folks who haven’t filled their iPads with Thriller, Graceland and Rumours.”
This made me giggle. My dad was downright obsessed with “Graceland”.
MOAR J-POP.
Speaking of covers.

vs – I’ve got a Pogues vid up over at my place right now – “Fairytale of New York.” It was part of my repentance for the War on Christmas.
Jennifer, that did brighten my morning yesterday, though I was frankly surprised how innocent young Shane looked. He’s grown into his voice since.
Special to vs: Check it out. It’s a grand holiday tradition, redolent with disaster and garnished with unexplained early deaths. Magnificent.
I have pictures.
~
Concidentally, was just the other day listening to Jim Dickinson on albums.
FWIW, I’ve put up a video that pwns both Tintin and Thers’ bad videos.
Nothing can top the power of awesome awfulness in this video.
Jennifer is not a signer of the SHAT .
I’m so hate my iPhone right now. I wanna watch all these vids on the downlow so my fam will quit thinking I’m r00d but I still have no sound. I’m so intringued by DKW’s–what awesome dancing.
BREAKING NEWS…BREAKING NEWS…
Former UN Secretary-General Coffee Anon appealed for a ceasefire in the video war between Tintinistan and Thersokia. The latest outbreak of aural violence between the two rival powers broke out unexpectedly on Thursday with a Thersokian ambush and escalated rapidly.
“Like their previous video wars, this lastest outbreak of fighting only harms innocent people caught in the crossfire,” said Anon. “Mental institutions and psychiatric wards can no longer cope with all the casualties pouring in for treatment.”
Anon appealed for calm and restraint on the part of all parties. Anon concluded by announcing he will try to weave a ceasefire through shuttle diplomacy.
CORRECTION
Part of the Tintinistan-Thersokia bulletin was garbled in transmission. The last sentence should read: “Even though further fightiing looms, Anon announced that he will try to weave a ceasefire through shuttle diplomacy.”

Hope you have money, cuz I just had a siezure and you’re on the hook for my medical bills.
that’s warped thinking.
Jennifer, i actually linked to that vid here a couple months back. The Hoff never disappoints… In that he always disappoints.
PS–headphones are wonderful / terrible things.
vs just broughted it
vs – great minds think alike. I didn’t see it at the time – I’ve learned my lesson about clicking on links in S,N comments – but as you say the Hoff is always a sure bet. That one popped up for me about a week ago as a suggestion from youtube about videos I might like, or popular videos, or something like that, and I figured it would come in handy at some point so I bookmarked it. There’s a pretty good literal video version of it too, where they’ve overdubbed him with words that match what’s happening in that atrocious video.
…cuz I just had a siezure…
Good, since tonic spasms are required to enjoy the song properly.
Ya know, I DID want to try DDR before DKW hipped me to the fact that it may be a health risk.
BTw, does anyone know of a good HTML editor app for iPad?
Fuck it–just click on this: http://www.asylum.com/2010/09/08/christian-rap-videos-youtube/
DDR is hte shit. Maybe not great for someone in their second trimester, but otherwise it is amazing. I rate for DDR even if I am capped out at six foot difficulty.
I haven’t had an opportunity to try Dance Central on Kinect, but that looks pretty killer too.
I am totally going to try it. I will look for any excuse to dance (and act like a kid). What is a six foot difficulty?
Did you know that the show MiniMoni appeared on was the origin for the Dramatic Chipmunk meme?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimoni#Minimoni_in_American_media
What is a six foot difficulty?
The diffiuclty scale is in number of feet and goes to ten.
My neighbor has a six foot difficulty: a surly teenager who was only 5′ a few months ago.
Ah. Well I will look forward to the day I get to beat that and try out trash-talking.
For a split second I thought you were referring to your height…
A Brighter Day is one of my favourite DDR tracks. I can not dance it at Expert (7 feet) but can complete it on Difficult (6 feet). This is what it looks like at Difficult. Note that the video shows a Full Combo finish which means every step has to be timed perfectly. I haven’t done that yet. My record on that song is an A with something like 98% of the steps hit.
Very impressive…but I’m totally gonna go nick Swardson on Your ass.

Also I’m clueless as to how to link YouTube vids on iPad.
Well…apparently my typing’s improved but linking is beyond my grasp.
Vs – don’t even bother with the adorned link, it takes too fucking many keystrokes on the iPad (same with iPhone) so just drop the URL in as-is. I stopes bothering with my iPhone and now that I am an iPadded person I shall carry on not giving a fuck if it ain’t pretty.
I STOPPED. FYipad.
Im prolly gonna do that, Pup….but I don’t even know where to find the URL for YouTube vids on the iPad. Where the eff are they?
But I love mini-moni. Mari, Nono, Aibon, the Hawaiian girl.
I’m hopelessly confused. I’m don’t understand even a tithe of the acronyms in the thread.
I’m going to bail soon to go watch The Wire. I don’t watch television, but I have an old analog televesion hooked up to a DVD player to watch movies and such on discs.
To help me get through the Bad Season (for me), a friend loaned me the entire series–all five seasons. So now I’m watching them in marathon sessions. It’ so great to see the characters and plotline unfold in back-to-back-to-back sessions….without waiting a week between episodes or months between seasons!
I also have another interest in the program: I’ve lived in Baltimore for the past 20 years. I remember when they closed off the streets for location shooting in the vicinity of the Maryland Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, where I do volunteer work. Even cooler: At the time, my volunteer partner and I were recording Burns & Simon’s The Cornerfor library patrons. If you enjoyed the HBO program, I highly recommend the book. As the screenplays show, both Burns and Simon are thoroughly excellent writers.
I’m halfway through the third season of The Wire Bailing out now to see what happens in the second half….
Say what? I doan unnerstand. You mean an embedded vid or in the YouTube app? Lemmee see…… Ah, I get it..
In the you tube app hit the button with opposing arrows to switch out of full screen. Pause it so you don’t confuse yer poor little womanhaid. Tap in the video area then hit the share button (same icon as the forward button in mail/pics etc.). The URL will be in the email form that comes up – copy it from there then cancel t
Out of the email. Only moderately painful, you see? Go. Try it now. There will be a test.
Ballmer, you say? Mmmmm, O’Bryckis.
I live in one of the tiny 12-foot wide row-houses that show up everywhere during the program. I’ve even got ‘formstone’ on the facade. I’m in Highlandtown, Hon, about a mile due north of Fort McHenry. Okay, now I’m bailing for real!
A Brighter Day is one of my favourite DDR tracks.
That’s my kind of game song! I haven’t played DDR (though I have played some of the older rhythm games, not any that used a floor pad, just controller stuff.)
DDR music is great hyperactive listening at the gym. That shit will get you moving pre-coffee at 6:30 a.m.
Jennifer, that did brighten my morning yesterday, though I was frankly surprised how innocent young Shane looked. He’s grown into his voice since.
You should hear some of his pre-Pogues stuff.
The fact is, I have spent all of Christmas praying and hoping for the miracle that will save America, which is all muslims and there liberal fan club dropping dead.
Gee this is awful.
WWGD?
Ps–thanks, Pup! Think that’s gonna work just fine.
Here’s your Miracle, America. Praise it! Praise it!

So it’s safe to say that, you don’t want his body, and don’t think he’s sexy?
I do not want his body! Or the women’s legs growing out of his hips.
When you are international geriatric music star, you can afford the very best hip replacements available. They do take a long time to graft on properly, however.
Close as I could find to the METAL VERSION – Revolting Cocks

I better not get seizures or I’m gonna be SO PISSED.

I’d be a bánh mì that it’s V-pop.
Uh, bet a bánh mì.
So you don’t want to be garnished with julienned carrots?

Even if the singer wasn’t Korean, his name is K.

It’s never come up before, but I’d be game…
… as long as you leave your strap-on daikon at home!
Oh fine. I’m just glad you’re down with it. I think carrot strips will look rather fetching on you.
“Uh, bet a bánh mì.”
Heh, I’d eat it either way.
/Sadly style sexual harassment
I think I’ll take the old vegetable peeler, and make myself a carrot-strip wig.
I do have a gazillion carrots at home- protip- boil them, puree them in a blender, and mix in a quarter pound of melted cheddar and one egg per pound of carrots, and bake until set- mixing in carmelized diced onion is optional.
I do love me some RevCo.
How do you melt cheddar? Do you mix it into a roux?
/Sadly style sexual harassment
Don’t let the Ho know!
I believe S,N-style sexual harassment must always come in the form of poetry.
And the parades are great!
The fact is, all you liberals are fags and can bite my bone.
The fact is, I beleive any sort of class war perpetuated by the left liberal bias media machine must be askered by a smart, fast brutal smack down and metaflorical anal raping by reality, and the Free Market.
Two classic Gary posts, the homoeroticism and homophobia are inextricably linked in a tour de force of cognitive dissonance.
Happy Kwanzaa Gary, be you fake or real.

Not a total wingnut, but the more I read, the more I felt “ick”, and the better I felt about feeling “ick” about guys like this in the 80’s, when I chose not to go near the corporate world after college.
The fact is I am very sleepy and need to go ni-ni. So goodnight all you faggy muslin-humping liberals.
DKW, if you see this later, I wish to awaken to rhyming doggerel. I’ve grown quite fond of it.

What’s that? A rhyming doggy style?
OT, but it’s friggin’ brutal out, here in the NY metro area.
@BBBB: Omigod, Shane was once a kid, for real? This is why I stay away from videos whenever possible — my ears tell my imagination what he ought to look like and that’s plenty for me, thanks.
Also, The Nipple Erectors is a definite contender for Best Band Name.
How do you melt cheddar? Do you mix it into a roux?
Velveeta® melts very well.
As far as absolute musical horror goes, these two mooks are about to drive me to MURDER.
Worse than (limp) Rod & Dolly? Could be, but I’m not listening to either one.

I kept waiting for the commercial to end and the video to begin. Grr…

Sorry I missed this… I make a roux, then throw in the cheese, and add a little milk (shoulda oughta made that clear from the get-go).

How is your gastrointestinal tract?
I’ve had my concerns about that commercial, too. I was wondering who else was annoyed by it. I can’t say that I am, but I just… ponder. Why so bland and innofensive? And why do alt-rocky upper middle class white folks,you know, dig the bland and innofensive? And she looks bland and inoffensive. Cute, but bland, maybe dull. Fashion choices by such folks…
Mind, you, these are my people… and prefer that to Big Hair Rhonda or Snooki any damned day of the week, but… it’s just so obvious in this instance. And it makes me ponder, waddupwiddat?
The Revolting Cocks they are not! Nor are they Ministry, or, my heart be still, LARD.
Oh, and they sure have pounded that commercial into our ears this winter.
The McGonigal Alarm Clock. Make it so.
Yeah, who wouldn’t want to be awakened by a McGonigal?
Oh my, I just noticed the video description by Hyundai Motors of America. It starts thusly:
“Hard to believe anyone could have as much fun playing music as Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn of Pomplamoose.”
Huh? He’s capering about like a nitwit and she looks medicated. Okay, maybe he’s having fun, but I haven’t had fun watching him.
Why so bland and innofensive? And why do alt-rocky upper middle class white folks,you know, dig the bland and innofensive?
It’s the musical equivalent of “business casual”- Dockers rockers.
There is a Honda, I believe, advert that’s almost as miserable (different creepy youth) but I’ve done enough mental & emotional harm here for one night.
Why do alt-rocky upper middle class white folks, you know, dig the bland and inoffensive?
Your lame music won’t be used in a mass-marketed, royalty-paying advert if it isn’t lamely bland & inoffensive.
Though I had the fuck offended out of me. Several hundred times.
Time to throw your T.V. off a roof!
Fuck your Honda Civic…
Before anyone throws a new iPad off the roof w/ pudgy, useless fingers, you can make it functional for a mere US$70.00 (approx.) more.
There’s one born every 30 secs., isn’t there?
Honda gets cut a little slack just for having done this.
I wouldn’t throw the tee vee off the roof though, even if there were someone below.
Oh, you want teevees.

How is your gastrointestinal tract?
An occasional bout of food poisoning is a central component of any comprehensive weight-loss program.
And that really is a good one. Makes me grin every time I see it.
It took something like 600 takes to get it right. Must have been a blast to do. A hair-rending, screaming at the walls kind of blast, but hey.
an occasional bout of food poisoning
Oral surgery is good for that too.

In the morn she awoke,
To something stiff giving her a poke.
Her expression pained,
“This meter is strained,
“I really thought you knew”
She added “how to write a clerihew”.
Forlorn and dejected,
With chancy verse rejected,
I sit trying to compose another
While being distracted by your mother.
I JUST turned on my iPad to find this. After I google some of the words, I’m gonna be so impressed. You spoil me.
