Digesting And Spewing Pop Culture Into Your Face

I kind of like Kreayshawn. She’s interesting to look at and “Gucci, Gucci” isn’t that bad of a song. It’s rough around the edges rap and has some genuine style to it that isn’t really prevalent in popular ap anymore. This guy brings that edge and then proceeds to shit all over it. Fair warning, this is most definitely not safe for work. I’m not sure it’s safe for anyplace actually but sometimes you have to watch the really absurd stuff to have some fun. I’m still contemplating the scenario of this guy stabbing a woman until she bleeds and whether he used what I think he’s implying he used or just a regular old knife. Seriously, this is some fucked up, ridiculous shit. On that note, enjoy! (also, Go Celtics!)

I had a passing knowledge of the great rock band, Queen, when I was a kid and most of it was from their various anthem rocks. I got my first great taste of what Queen truly was when Bohemian Rhapsody was performed in Wayne’s World. The rawness and abusrdity of the tone of the song was just nuts and the frenetic quality of it’s highs and lows was something I had never heard before. I count the passing of Freddie Mercury form AIDS as one of the greatest losses in the history of rock and roll. It’s always amazed me that no one has come quite so close to stepping up to the plate and bringing that operatic voice to the mainstream again. That dude up there hit’s it out of the fucking park.

I never got a chance to see Queen live and the videos I’ve seen of their performances makes me ache for a chance to see them even more. Maybe this guy, named Marc Martel, can give some of us that chance ‘cuz he sounds just like Freddie. He’s effortless in his ability and he even kind of looks like him. Enjoy!(via Gawker)

Update:
This guy has rightfully taken the internet by storm and this little gem has been discovered as well.

This performance is a a bit old, especially in internet time, but I find myself listening to this version of Lady Gaga’s, Edge of Glory, every once in awhile. I’ve been a huge Stern fan for a long time and even got into some trouble in high school when I insisted on carrying around his second book, Miss America, and had it repeatedly taken from me by teachers because of its perceived racy content. Nevermind the fact that the teacher who took it from me had the nipple-tastic poster of Farrah Fawcett hanging in his office. Let that swirl around in your head for a moment. Here’s some help picturing it too:

I’m also a fan of Lady Gaga. Not a “Little Monster” level fan, but one nonetheless. That goes over well when I tell my friends who look at me and see a straight 31-year-old man who has a scruffy beard and pot belly and could pass as a young Jerry Garcia, minus the drug induced haze. I say, “Fuck it.” I dig her music and her screw you attitude when it comes to her being who she wants to be.

I also love Howard Stern as a performer and most especially, as an interviewer. I have no problem stating the truth when I say that Stern is hands down, the best interviewer alive today. That’s why his interview with Lady Gaga was so good. And that’s why that performance is so damn powerful. He’s got an interesting way of getting those deep dark bits of information out of his guests and then they in turn can let go. Lady Gaga did that when she sang that song. She was letting go.

So check out the video.

It’s fucking good.

I’ve made my case for how ridiculous and stupid the Westboro Baptist Church fucktards are before. Now, one of my favorite rock bands of all time, (seriously, Dave Grohl was in Nirvana too. That still blows my mind.) the Foo Fighters, decided to stage a quicky concert at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo. It also happened to be the same location where the God Hates Fags shit-stains were protesting some ridiculous notion of what they believe is a cause. Really, at this point who cares what they have to say. It is nice to see a group like the Foo provide some comic juxtaposition to these despicable fucks. Sorry if I offend with all of the swears, but these fucksticks really piss me off. Check out the video below and mock those inbred cult losers while enjoying a pretty funny Foo Fighters song.

I recently posted about how Gov. Charlie Crist of Florida was giving serious attention to issuing a pardon to the late Doors singer, Jim Morrison for his penis waving offense during a concert in Miami. It looks like that pardon has gone thru and Morrison is now a free man. Too bad he’s dead and can’t really enjoy his new found freedom, but better late than never I suppose. Fuck ya, Lizard King!

I love me some Funny or Die. I really love me some Kurt Russell. Mash the two up and make a shitty version of We Are The World to celebrate it’s 25.75th anniversary and throw in a dash of celebrity and a pinch of “who the fuck is that?” and you come up with this gem. And remember, “Laughter is the best medicine… but food is the best food.” (via Gizmodo)

My first thought when I saw this was, “Wow.” Now that it’s sunk in a little more I want a Jessica Rabbit concert. In fact I want Disney to open a theme park with these everywhere. Please, Imagineers, make this happen soon. All we need is some A.I. and a home video game console that supports this and I can finally get into those JRPG’s I love so much. Seriously this is just fucking awesome. If you aren’t impressed then you’ve given up on the future. (via The Huffington Post)

In 1969 Jim Morrison may or may not have exposed himself to an audience in Florida. It really depends on who you ask. I was once told by someone who was at the show that he actually did show his penis but of course other people said he didn’t. His subsequent arrest resulted in his eventually leaving the country and moving to Paris where he may have died in a bathtub. Well, now that Gov. Charlie Crist is leaving his office he may be open to issuing a pardon to the long-dead Doors frontman. About time! (via Gawker)

Yes, you read me right. I squeed my pants, which I’m not even sure is possible but I did it anyways. I love Jim Morrison and The Doors. Their music is one of the inspirations that influenced my move to SoCal. The fact that I would be able to live in the home he shared with his one true love, Pam, and if I had $1,199,000 is just too fucking amazing. Oh well. I haven’t made my first million yet so it looks like I’ll miss out on this gorgeous home. At least I can still see pics of it and now I know which one it is when I drive on Laurel Canyon. It comes fully furnished with many a custom piece designed for just this house. It also has a secret shower in which The Lizard King wrote some of his songs. Enjoy the pics and if you do happen to buy it please invite me over for a looksie. I promise I’ll keep the squee in my pants. (via Apartment Therapy)

I have to say that these guys are on a music video role and it doesn’t hurt that their music is catchy as well. Their first hit, Here It Goes Again, was coupled with the awesomely simple treadmill video and this new one is in the same vein. Of course anytime you want to include cute animals I’m already sold.
