'Cause it rhymes with vomit.

So happy for you!

And for the record, oritteropo and I have had the great fun of sharing dance videos for years. He's my go-to Dance Man!

Love that avatar. Love rhyming callousy with galaxy.

And love the Sift.

Thanks dag. Thanks oritteropo

Hey just a quick update. I've been working on your song - turns out there are heaps of things that rhyme with Oritteropo! We're just waiting on your new badge. He must be designing a masterpiece!

Thanks Alternatively you can avoid rhyming with oritteropo, for instance Jeremiah was a Bullfrog works just fine as oritteropo was an aardvark

Wow, congrats on the galaxy! Song and badge are coming - it may take a couple of weeks because I need to figure out words that rhyme with oritteropo. ;-)

An abbreviation of four-wheel drive to rhyme with 'forward'! That is true genius.

I love Watsky. He had some pretty cool rhymes when I saw some of his on youtube years ago.

Song says nothing though. I'm particularly critical of hip-hop, and this just seems like more "I'm all that, getting bitches and money" kind of bs.

Looks suspicious. Has a couple video accounts like on vimeo and such. Nothing before 3 days ago. Others have to do with "finger family" nursery rhymes?

Iunno.

Ah ha A man who knows his geography!

I missed the Caribbean, and having played pirates I have no defence.

So about half the problems are due to changes since the film was made, and half were taking liberties to get it to rhyme.

There was an interesting article on the BBC News web site about what constitutes a country... I'll have a quick look and send you the link if I find it.

p.s. Got it http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20131212-bribery-and-brandy-in-a-country-that-doesnt-exist

Transnistria not quite the subject I remembered, but that was the article I was thinking of.

Other than Yugoslavia and Czechslovakia there is the split of Sudan, name changes for Benin/Dahomey, Myanmar/Burma. Many are included as countries that are in fact possessions of other countries. (Puerto Rico, Guam, Bermuda, French Guiana). The Caribean is pointed to as a country but the actual countries of the region are left out mostly (Dominica, St. Kitts & Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada, Antigua & Barbuda etc). Like I said in my comment I'm sure this wasn't intended to be an absolutely accurate listing even for 1995 and things were included to make the song work. Gaum is rhymed with San Juan and neither one is a country. What can I say, I'm a trivia player whose strong suit is Geography. And don't get me started on places like South Ossetia, Nagorno Karabakh, Nakhchivan, Transnistria. People can't even agree on how to spell them let alone whether they qualify as independent countries. And I shouldn't forget Somalia, Somaliland and Puntland.

I wouldn't hold thid up as a great educational source due to the number of non-countries included and the 2 dozen or so countries not included. All in the interests of rhyming and rhythm I'm sure. And of course, it's 20 years out of date.

Wow.
Brutal, ballsy, berating of Biggie,
I wonder if mama was fat, would he be,
So quick to pick on another man's issues
Or would he feel badly, and hand him some tissues?
To dry up the tears that another made fall
by saying that he was too big to play ball,
or to feel, or be loved, or to be a real man,
or just sit in the heat without help from a fan.
His rhymes were OK, but the tempo was lacking
Like a long cooling drink, from a well they've been fracking.

I never really got this whole thing. I mean I guess I get the swearing part of it, but he's no Lenny Bruce in terms of breaking down barriers. Nor is he as funny.

"If the word motherfucker stimulates you sexually you're in a lot of trouble"
-Lenny Bruce, decades before often-subtle sexual nursery rhymes

Although, maybe that's it. He wasn't as funny.

I like how he called the Beatles garbage. Whenever I tell people I don't like the Beatles, I get these crazed looks. I don't think they're awful, but their songs are largely simplistic and nursery rhyme like. There's much better music out there. It seems like the Beatles are ingrained into our collective and it's considered sacrilege to go against that.
