"We Are All on Drugs" has to be the stupidest song Weezer has ever done though.

Well, they have been on a big "Let's make songs about drugs" kick since the Green Album.

The new disc is good...better than the last one. If it were some no-name group, I might cast it aside, though.

Aryan rap by a half-Turk, i.e., non-Aryan.

That's the irony.

There's actually an entire genre of white-power music, much of it metal or speed metal. Some of it can even be listened to more than once.

Agreed. And thanks for the clarification. I saw irony other than that.

There is a lot of it actually. There is skinhead, NSBM (National Socialist Black Metal). Then Neo-Folk, Aryan, all sorts.

I can't get into rap or hip-hop or any of that. Only if I'm incredibly stoned (which I don't do anymore). Of course this is coming from a guy who beats off while listening to old Emperor or Enthroned

Irony is in the eye of the beholder, or is that some of that sleepy-crusty stuff ... whatever.

If you find additional absurdities, please feel free to point them out!

Getting Gay With Kids was actually the environmentally themed episode.

Everybody goes down to Costa Rica with the Getting Gay with Kids Singing Group, they get lost in the jungle after their guide gets eaten by a crocodile or somesuch, and Cartman saves the day.

OMG my life is an homage to a parody! Sorry just had to use homage because it sounds *cough* poetic. No children were got gay with in the making of this family vacation.

Let me Holla,
Peep dis, Ya. Basically, it comes down to what sells and what is fun. Many of the "gangsta rappas" have indeed come from meak beginnings and have seen first hand what it is like to live life in the street. What they learn there is the only person that will take care of you is you. Think of how attractive a philosophy that must be to a young person. "I don't need anyone but me. So F*&K the World Don't Ask me for Shit" to coin the phrase I belive was made so popular by Mr. Biggie Smalls or was it Tu Pac?
Personally, I do not see the merit in most hip hop. Most of it sounds exactly like the rest, and in most cases it is-"I got money, I'm a bad Mo Fo, I gots Hos, and I slap skins and I did it my way." Kids love it and somehow it makes money.
If you really want to place the blame on it's popularity, take a look at the parents who allow their children to purchase the CDs, listen to the music, and dress the way they do. But remember, just because they look the part, doesn't mean they play it, Mr. Mouse. People often think I am a stuck up super model,rich type with no tolerance for normal people, but they often realize I am just a human.

Outty, Kid!
