2010: Contributing to the Internet Meme Music Phenomenon

Recommended Posts

It was roughly around the year 2000ish when the internet was bombarded with memes that were specifically song infused. As abruptly as the catchy songness came it mysteriously went away, only to leave the internet with non-sensical memes, stupid 4chan shit that is funny only to myself and all other /b/tards, more stupid stuff, some funny things, dry humor, cheezburger sites, and demotivational posters. A decade ago it was the timeless classics "All Your Base", Tunak Tunak Tun, Yatta, Kitty Cat Dance, and many more. And now, for some odd reason, in 2010 it is back...nearly ALL funny shit on the internet this year is infused with song.

This caused two things to happen: Total fucking lulz and then people being tormented mentally the following day at work with phrases such as "Stop having boring tuna, stop having a boring life", "Shamwow, you'll say wow everytime", "Hide your kids, hide your wife, hide your husbands too because they're raping 'errbody out here", and "Guns don't kill people, uh-uhhh, I kill people...with guns" looping endlessly over and over again in the recesses of the mind.

Here is the thread to get out all of your internet catchy song torment, or to torment others by posting internet videos with catchy songs. Note that acts such as "Weird Al" and things that are full on parody artists are not what I'm talking about, I'm talkin' about good ole fashioned MEMES, which are phenomenon that flare up on the internet almost over night and then before you know it everyone is talking about it.

I'll start with the classic, and my new favorite rap song:

Your turn, tune torture meh! I dare you...

(Original video: NSFW as you will laugh REALLY GODDAMN loud because this dude is 100% serious and then your boss will realize that you are probably not working on those spreadsheets you've been putting off for some time now)

(Hilarious music remix, which I come to find out is by the same people who remixed the Antoine Dodson news report)
