hay guys so david hasn been doing this feature much lately actually i havn been blogging much either but you know i kind of just got busy with things like

anyways  WHO WENT TO TREASURE ISLAND LAST WEEK EEEEEEEEH?? it was pretty bombass wasn’t it?! i think i liked mstrkrft the best. i was kind of disappointed in girl talk, but they are more gimmicky than anything! so let’s look/listen to gimmicky music videos!

incidentally, all of these are best seen through the site yooouuutuuube.com (three o’s, three u’s, and three u’s again).

Girl Talk – Feed the Animals

I’ve linked this before, but it’s so much better with a huge fucking embedded video, ISN’T IT?! For some reason it is hard to find the full set of Feed the Animals videos, but THE INTERWEB CANNOT FOOL THE ELITE SQLOG CORPS. Here is the full set, taken from several different sets of uploads– hopefully the intranet po-po won’t get up on this shit. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14

Alice

Fagottron has a number of awesome videos, but this is my favorite. Especially when viewed through yooouuutuuube.com.

A Haaaaaandbaaag?! (Remix)

I love “The Importance of Being Ernest“, I love The Importance of Being Ernest, and I love A Handbag ?! Ergo, I love A Handbag feat. Edit Evans:

Grey Video

If you don’t know The Grey Album, I just feel sorry for you. The Grey Video is fun despite (because?) it being so lo-fi and downright silly.

We Will Rock and Roll Beverly Hills

Ehhhh fuck Weezer.

————————————————–

People who go to Weezer concerts clearly want to have MGMT & Lady Gaga played at them

Yeah, seriously, fuck Weezer.

WANT MORE MASH-UP GOODNESS?! Well, fortunately for you, TONIGHT is Bootie, a bimonthly mash-up themed party in SF. 21+, fortunately/unfortunately (18+ parties tend to be pretty annoying, IMO). Have a great weekend!

Weeaboo Wednesday: NANA

This column was written on July 8th and initially published that day. Upon hitting the “Publish” button, I saw that Kyle had already written one. Because it was Kyle’s week to write a WW, and I had forgotten. So I took it off the site and decided to publish it the next week. Except that would have been yesterday, and yesterday I forgot. Fortunately there’s this thing where you can fiddle with the date that an entry appears to be filed under. This column was retro-published on the site on Thursday the 16th. Look, it’s not like these are particularly time-sensitive, OKAY?

So apparently Ai Yazawa, creator of some of my all-time favorite shoujo manga, is very sick and won’t be updating Nana for a while. Given this tragic and unverifiable news I sort of remember reading on onemanga.com, I thought it might be a good opportunity to put Ai Yazawa on trial for bringing out the worst in the Japanese– and in doing so, introduce you gaijin to the absolutely fascinating, somewhat nauseating phenomenon that is Nana.
