Weird Al's new single is hilarious!
 
I had to listen to this a few times to fully grasp all the lyrics, but Weird Al's parody of this stupid shitty song I've heard at the grocery store is just wonderful.

Click here to watch the video (starring Jack Black and Kristen Schaal, from what I can see).

Man, I love this guy.

Funny video, funny song. Did enjoy.

I was never a huge fan of Weird Al but I did bond with a kid in PE class over "I Love Rockie Road" back in 6th grade. Good times, little me. Good times.

I dig it. Always nice to see a new Weird Al song.

My resume is printed in Comic Sans too!

Huh. Weird.

I've never understood the hate for sandals with socks. They let your feet feel free and comfortable in weather that would normally be a few degrees too cold without socks.

If being an adult is wearing uncomfortable footwear then I think the human race is somewhat overrated.

Socks with sandals is uncomfortable footwear.

How on Earth are they uncomfortable? You foot receives maximum ventilation along with a minimum of surface contact, aside from the socks. There is no downside.

The "minimum of surface contact" that you speak of is the problem. With all of the surface contact focused in a few areas it causes the socks to bunch up uncomfortably.

What? Do you wear potato sacks on your feet or something? This is not an issue.

This is why I love Wierd Al. He makes a great song funny. Listen to his version of Bad. Too funny.

Yes, we all wear potato sacks on our feet in Philly. I thought that was common knowledge.

Is it a cultural thing or can you people just not afford socks?

Ninetales 07-15-2014 02:22 PM

This thread has turned into the weird al of conversations. go figure.

Franco Pepe Kalle 07-15-2014 02:28 PM

Then why comment if you have a problem.

The Batlord 07-15-2014 02:36 PM

Yeah, shut your PokeAss up!

We're rich beyond your wildest dreams, it's just a cultural thing we got from the amish.

Are you all like old school and you wear just regular potato sacks that once contained potatoes, or were at least originally designed for that purpose, or are these designer potato sacks?

They're designer potato sack. Come on man, don't you know what an urban hipster I am?

But wouldn't a hipster wear authentic potato sacks they found at a thrift store?

Maybe in 2011. Not now. You need to keep up with the trends.

So is this something we're gonna start seeing around Coachella soon? Maybe Lady GaGa'll come out with a potato sack on her head in a desperate bid to stay relevant?

I think we have a few more years before potato sack socks reach Coachella levels of unhipness.

So how much does a pair go for anyway?

djchameleon 07-15-2014 04:53 PM

Aisha Taylor, Margaret Cho and the guy from Modern Family was also in that video.

Also boo on the comic sans hate.

I love that he has a song called Foil on the album which is a parody of Royals.

Soulflower 07-29-2014 04:29 PM

I think Weird Al is great. He actually deserves more credit than he gets. It takes a level of talent and creativity to do what he does.

The Batlord 09-24-2018 01:01 PM

For a moment I thought there was going to be a second Dark Age.
