As usual, you are positively encouraged to engage in sock puppetry in this thread. The usual rules apply.
Please, be sure to switch back to your regular handle when commenting on other threads. I have made that mistake myself, a lot.

Hey guys, you know what it is? It’s Friday, Friday, Friday…
Honestly I don’t know why people got so worked up about that video. It’s a vanity video. Yeah, it’s not very good, but that’s how these vanity things work. If you want to be annoyed at anyone, don’t be annoyed with this thirteen year old girl. Be annoyed with the vanity company that takes the money from parents with too much money and just enough love to support their daughter whether she is good enough, or ready, to do this for a living or not.
I call it the Puritanism of non-suckitude. They say a Puritan lays awake at night worried that someone somewhere is having a good time. A “non-suckitude Puritan” worries that somewhere someone sucks and takes it as a personal offense that the suck even exists. I prefer to just not pay attention to that which sucks in the first place, but hey if a bunch of mall-bopping girls buy this crap, what do I care? It’s not my problem.
But that isn’t the front and center frivolity for Friday. It’s this, the first ad for Obama’s reelection…
And funny, I don’t think it’s making a very effective case. Heh.
Hammer him early and often, because this suckitude is definitely our problem.
Hat tip: Hot Air.

I hate you, Aaron, for linking the Rebecca Black video.
I hate you.

President Obama (e7d72e) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:01 pmI don’t even know you anymore, Barry.
Senator Obama (e7d72e) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:02 pmImpeach him!

Rebecca Black (00428f) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:06 pmMust be April Fool’s Day, because SPQR (#1) agree.
And no, I don’t have a problem with Rebecca Black, the girl, per se. But let me respond to this:
Because you’ll get more of it. On the radio, in TV, in popular culture….

non-suckitude Puritan (00428f) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:10 pmOh, it’s a real music video.
LOL
Hey, it’s practically innocent, as far as I can tell. I couldn’t get through it because it’s not musical.
If this sells, that’s great, compared to Lady Gaga’s latest ripoff of Madonna.
This is Disney? I assume it is if ABC is pushing her. If so, she will be wearing a g string and in rehab within the decade.

There’s always been crappy music, and there will always be crappy music. complaining about it solves nothing.

Aaron Worthing (e7d72e) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:24 pmThanks puritan. My ears are bleeding now.
Kman (5576bf) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:24 pm🙂
My favorite part of the original video is the rap guy. Does anyone think that he’s going to the same “party” as the teenyboppers that Friday? Hope not.
carlitos (00428f) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:28 pmAW:
I suppose, although that can be said about just about anything one doesn’t like: taxes, democrats, republicans, liberals, conservatives, etc.
On the other hand, you’re probably too young to remember the backlash against disco, and how the forces against mediocrity eventually won out (at least for a few years).
Kman (5576bf) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:29 pmComplaining about Republicans and Democrats is political discourse that absolutely does affect the world, as our politics evolve over time with elections.
No, that isn’t really like complaining about modern music, which I’m only dimly aware of anyway.
Dustin (c16eca) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:32 pmOn the other hand, you’re probably too young to remember the backlash against disco, and how the forces against mediocrity eventually won out (at least for a few years).
I’m hurting myself laughing. I may crack a rib. I’m picturing Kman in a ’80’s hair band.
SPQR (26be8b) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:35 pmKman you ignorant.

carlitos (00428f) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:42 pmIt is absolutely incomprehensible that anyone could find any artistic value at all in the inane lyrics of that “Friday” song. So, to cleanse your musical palates, I will leave you with some great lyrics from the Beatles.
Woke up, got out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Paul McCartney (1db6c5) — 4/1/2011 @ 1:42 pmMade the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
I was! Drums and keyboards. We sucked.

His imperial majesty (0cd6a2) — 4/1/2011 @ 5:00 pmOk. I guess I have to charge this woman for threats, like bombing, shooting, I know where you live, etc. After all the Wisconsin Attoney General just called me to the carpet on this. Don’t worry Kathy, I’ll cut you a deal. No jail time.

What’s a guy got to do around here to get a laugh. Besides getting naked?
Joe Biden (f060a0) — 4/1/2011 @ 5:12 pmPlease Joe, don’t do that. I’ll just be embarrased becasue it is so small.

the inane lyrics of that “Friday” song.
The hilariously dorky part is “gotta make my mind up which seat can I take…” That along with the preceding words of “front seat…back seat,” her explaining that Thursday is before Friday, and Sunday is after Saturday, along with the earnest smile of the young songwriter, adds to the unintended humor.
Yeah, it’s not very good, but that’s how these vanity things work.
Speaking of “suckitude” and vanity, do those things explain why “Saturday Night Live” — which I heard some people discussing on a radio show this morning — is still on the air? Totally baffling why something so truly sucky and decades past its prime somehow manages to hang on. Based on the peculiar buzz it generates — including among those in the world of media, politics and entertainment — NBC’s late-night program apparently continues to be watched by those who one wouldn’t think would be so hard up for comedy and entertainment.
At least a 13-year-old girl has an excuse for her “suckitude.” What excuse do fully grown adults employed by a network TV show have?

As much as all too many wish to believe (and yeah, that be mighty fookin easy … to believe). He launched the attack on Libya, while standing atop foreign soil, after scurrying outta D.C. [we likes ta call that a clue (as relates the underlying theme/mechanics/intent of his actions)]. He knows what he’s doing. Yeah, he does. And his doings can be described, in their entirety, in one word.
