Because some folks think “in first gear” it generally helps to put things into pretty pictures for them. In this vein, allow me to present an infographic of a rather popular and well-known song:
— Y’all need to giddy on up to this truck dealership: That’s right folks: a free shotgun with EVERY truck purchased. But only on Friday, Saturday and Monday. Can’t go selling y’all a small arsenal on Sunday, now can we? That’s like a Holy day or something. Sweet! I’ll take four. And I’m willing to bet this dashing fella will be right there beside me in the queue. He seems like the kinda guy who appreciates, nay expects, a fine complimentary shotgun thrown in whenever he upgrades his truck. Y’all do after all need some shiny new wheels for Friday’s rootin’ tootin’ goodtime country swing. — One more, coz it’s Friday. Which means I’m too lazy to type long article-type stuff. Kinda like most other days lately it would seem…
— Nope, it ain’t snoring implied by the “Zzzzzz” in the title above, it’s how the web has decided to write the sound made by South Africa’s made-famous-by-the-World-Cup horn, the vuvuzela. Love it or hate it the vuvuzela is here to stay (for now at least). Having recently made the news by becoming a trending topic on Twitter – i.e. one of the 10 most talked about topics on Twitter worldwide – the rowdy little trumpet has decided to expand into social media. May I present The Vuvuzela Horn Buzzing Constantly on Facebook… …and @thevuvuzelahorn on Twitter… Classic! 12 points. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!! —
And it doesn’t end there either – I myself know of at least two people NOT in South Africa who have the vuvuzela’s drone as their ringtone. Gotta get my hands on that tone – it’ll drive my dogs nuts – they loathe vuvuzelas! Relax hippies – I’m not really going to terrorise my mutts. The neighbours are fair game though, right? Until now that is.
An enterprising site has released Phoneballs – that’s right, a silicone cover for your iPhone with ummm… balls. According to the manufacturers site, the features are as follows:
So as per the final point, it’s all for a good cause. Get your iPhone a set in either BlueBalls or PeachFuzz.
Classic! 10 points. — C’mon – it’s not that complicated people! Despite the ever-so-slightly politically incorrect title of the song this post is about you need to see these two clowns performing their eloquent treffer “Big Booty Bitches”. This clip has done rather well for itself, and for good reason -- it’s hilarious. Of course when someone tells you that someone/something is hilarious you can generally be secure in the knowledge that it usually isn’t. In fact it’s usually rather shite. Except when I tell you so. Because I wouldn’t dream of lying to you… I’m all about the truth. Even if it’s inconvenient. All together now:
Right ummm… cough cough let’s just agree to keep that between us, okay? I’m sorry, but it just needed to be put on record. For you to know.
And on with the music video. And I use the word video in the loosest possible sense. Classic! Aren’t you just loving the lead guy’s vibe? (no Jeremy, Seth has NOT copyrighted the word.) He looks like he just moored his yacht and popped in for a bit of a sing-song. Naturally this video went viral (are you even a little surprised?) and was therefore not far from the attention of Ray William Johnson, he of the =3 hit reviews (and by hit I mean an estimated 2.5 million views per viral video review). If you have no idea who I’m on about -- I didn’t either till being told about this one, so don’t feel too ashamed -- here’s some background info. According to his WikiTubia page:
Cue Ray…
Loving his work. Although… he does kinda seem to have a face that’s just begging to be punched, not so? Sorry -- an unexpected side-effect of living in Pretoria: If you can’t braai it or tune it, you want to moer it. — This post’s title originally included the name of the song discussed in this post (Big Booty Bitches… Musical duo gets a little carried away…), but after checking the site out again it was pretty evident that the very first words a reader sees upon loading up Stu’s take on… were the first three. Probably not the best way to attract new readers, now is it? Might end up getting blocked all over the place by IT geeks who think this site is one of those websites… Will probably also end up on the first page of some rather interesting Google searches. While I actively promote new readership, that might not be the best way to go about it.
I assume you lot have seen the legendary “Real Men of Genius” commercials over the last few years. And being in Pretoria while the ads only played in the USA is NO excuse to stare blankly and mumble “Huh?”. You can like to haff vat interwebs fing, therefore you should have at least heard of one or two, né? Here’s a quick refresher in awesome. This one is about how men invented everything…
Stuff of legend! Useless trivia for the day: the singy bits in these ads are crooned by David Bickler -- former lead singer of Survivor (you know: “Eye of the Tiger”, which featured in the Sylvester Stallone moerfest Rocky).
Anyhoo, back to the ads: naturally, there was (is?) an entire series of these pearlers, and Epic Carnival has valiantly put together a post of the 40 best ones. Who selected the 40? What’s makes these 40 better than another 40? No idea, but they’re well funny, so let’s not be difficult. Aiight? Go check ‘em out: The top 40 Real Men of Genius commercials |
