It’s an awesome cover. Check it out:
Andre 3000 just shit his pants.
Dude’s name is Mat Weddle. He’s in a band called Obadiah Parker. I hope to see Mat and Andre 3000 perform this song together on stage. What say we try to arrange that via the power of the internet?
Check out this YouTube video (crank the sound, especially when the police captain (John Brooks) is speaking to his “troops”):
This is some really sick shit. You call this America? George Orwell’s America, maybe. George Bush’s Amerika, definitely.
You know, the lady who was shot was carrying a sign saying “FEAR Totalitarianism.” The cops proved her point when they shot her while her back was turned. Then they shot her again while she was cowering behind the sign.
Thanks for making it clear, Miami PD: We do live in a totalitarian state. In fact, we live in a terrorist state. Just think if the protestors started shooting rubber bullets back at the cops. The cops would call the protestors terrorists, right? So, if the protestors tactics are terrorism, then it follows logically that the cops are terrorists as well, using their own definition.
Based on the captain’s pep speech, the cops considered it a battle, even though “the other side” never fought back or used weapons. This is nothing more or less than fascism in action. It’s shameful. Cops are supposed to protect us, not oppress us! The cops are the ones subscribing to an “us versus them” ideology. Certainly their actions will inspire that same ideology in the protestors who witnessed the cops indiscretions. Terrorism begets terrorism.
His name is Peter. Somehow, his videos have caught on and his popularity has shot up to the level that Reuters is now covering his ascent to internet fame.
I’ll post one of his videos below. He shows off his video editing skills, along with his love of motorcycles and the blues. He begins a series of videos that tell the story of his life: Telling it all, part 1.
What a weird song title – just who is Benjamin Breeg?
Here’s the video, which will hopefully not get yanked offline:
Is it fuckin’ cool?! I hope so; I haven’t even watched it myself yet! That’s how fast you’re getting this.
Up the Irons!
Great interview of John Dean. Scary stuff:
Olbermann and Dean go over the dramatic shift in neoconservativism towards authoritarianism. Dean says that approximately 23 percent of the population is ready to follow any strong, authoritarian leader right over the cliff. Logic, reality and American values don’t enter into it; certain people are followers. According to Dean, the vast majority of those people are of a conservative mindset, and their loyalty is absolute, even to the point of betraying everything they stand for if Dear Leader demands it.
Also hinted at is the vested interest of the current government in ratcheting up the fear level by playing up nonexistant terrorism threats. There’s a definite political advantage to keeping people afraid and it seems clear that the Bush/Cheney cabal have exploited this fact to strengthen their hold on power.
Watch the whole video for more. It’s about 10 minutes and touches on a lot of interesting subjects.
Sooo funny. What the fuck did he think would happen?
Here’s what this site is all about folks:
That’s right folks! Welcome to Electric Monkey Pants! Your source for sophisticated humor.
Monkey sniffs butt!!
Monkey sniffs butt!! Woo!
AskaNinja.com has a new episode (okay, it’s over a week old) taking on the Matrix. Pretty funny stuff! Click the play button above to view.
Oh man, that guy thought he was sooooo cool for about 5 seconds. Then, notice at the end how he has to roll off the truck and onto the concrete. Smooth, right? Well, not quite. Look how he almost gets crushed by the rear tire of his truck after the truck plows into the telephone pole.
Pretty fuckin’ funny, though. I enjoyed the part where he almost died. Seriously — this is just so fucking stupid. What if some little girl decided to ride her bike into the street right as this numbskull was getting onto his windshield? She could’ve been flattened, and this his little joke wouldn’t be so funny, would it? Ah well, not that I’m totally against “riding the whip” — I just don’t think you should do it in urban or suburban areas. Go out in the sticks, man!
…After you fix your truck, that is.
