Eat your Paisley

The downside of the tubes: Building landing strips for gay Martians.

Co-blogger #9 has written extensively about YouTube and its potential effects on politics and society. Well, there’s one thing on there that I can’t stand and Brittney reminded me about it. See, I hop on YouTube on occasion to watch old music videos and the like. And I search for songs for which I have never seen the video. And I was shocked and happy to learn that one of my favorite songs of all time had a video. Cool! Then I realized that it did not. Seems people like to just film themselves lip-synching to someone else’s tune. No, I’m not upset about copyrights and whatnot. I just don’t care to watch some guy lip-synching and doing it poorly. As to one of my favorite songs of all time, here’s the video of some guy no one knows mouthing the words:

    One of the former band members from The Dead Milkmen works in the IT industry in the area. A friend of mine working at a local pharma apparently found out he was on their staff. He said he always really wanted to call up the Help Desk and ask “Do you know what the queers are doing to our soil?” Don’t know if he ever did it.

    That is a great song. Reminds me of John Prine.

    Saying so is not in the best of taste in light of recent events but I love this song.

    Yea, I ran into the same thing looking for old clips of Minor Threat live. It seems every little crusty skate punx with a garage band wants to cover that shit and upload it to YouTube. Too bad they don’t have mandatory tags for lip-sync or covers. Then you could filter all that crap out.

    Suicide even. Sux.

    If you ain’t got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin’.

    I exposed Bitter to a little Mojo Nixon on our way back from Texas. I thought “Elvis is Everywhere” while driving through Memphis would be a nice touch. She’s still dating me, so I guess Mojo wasn’t as offensive to her as he seems to be to most women 🙂

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
