  1. Today, "Everything You Know Is Wrong" by Weird Al came on and for the first time I thought it sounded like something They Might Be Giants would have made. It turns out that isn't a coincidence and the song was meant to be a parody of/tribute to TMBG.

  2. Christmas at Ground Zero by Weird Al Yankovich.

    Fun fact -- Weird Al was pretty much forced by his record label to record a Christmas song. This was the result. Moral of this story -- don't MAKE Weird Al do something he doesn't want to do, because he'll make it backfire on you. (And produce one of the finest examples of black comedy at the same time.)

    My favorite line has always been, "if you see somebody climbing down your chimney, you better load your gun and shoot to kill ". That line has cracked me up since I was 10 and still does 30+ years later

  3. #WeirdAlYankovich really missed a trick by not doing Ham Wrap! (Enjoy What You Do).

    💯 agree that #WeirdAlYankovich will never be forgot AND could tell several stories about coming unprepared upon the Actual Original of a familiar parody in a public place & ☠☠🤣ing

    Best was 🎶Do I Make You Proud?🎶 at the FreddyM's when I only ever had heard 🎶Do I Creep You Out? 🎶

    I probably should've sd underappreciated instead of unsung. Who else EVER could do *any & every* genre well enough to parody them all well? He's Momentous!

  5. @krelnik perhaps we should measure the weirdness of AI answers in ‘Yankovic’.

    0.6 Yankovic for suggesting to glue cheese to pizza

    1.2 Yankovic for the suggestion to eat a rock everyday

  6. @ju_les wer mal von Weird Al Yankovic den Song Alberquerque gehört (ausgehalten?) hat, weiß, dass manche Kinder kein Sauerkraut mögen. Sorry, aber das ist relevante Information.

  7. Someone tooted the Lonely Kitty song video by #TheKiffness & I am forever grateful for that rabbit hole 🙆🏻‍♀️🥰

    Wanted to share another excellent original, this time with a Siren Chihuahua Losing His Mind 💗🐶 I can so relate 🥴

    Feels to this old hippie like Kiffness is channeling a similar gift as #WeirdAlYankovich but using a new media context for his fodder. #genius
