Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.

Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Here where we need ya (Here where we need ya)

Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've hot him on the spot, welcome back,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

I'll be Mr. Woodman.

Ooops, how about some context: This song isn't as serious as it sounds and I didn't post it to laugh 'at', but rather 'with'. It's *parody.

Secret Chiefs consists of Trey Spruance and Trevor Dunn (very talented musicians and composers, both) from Mr. Bungle along with other players, and they don't really want rock to die, although this is obviously a melodramatic criticism of some of its artifice. This is their only somewhat traditional Rock tune, as they normally do a complicated mix of Middle Eastern, Electronic, retro Italian and Metal music. JAPR, they are absolutely paying homage to Nirvana.

No need to get up in arms rasch, just some post-modern-y-ish humor.

As everyone knows, he did misspeak his planned legendary oneliner. He only left out a single letter word, but that "a" being absent makes the statement make no sense when you think about it. It always bothers me a little every time I hear it because I'm kind of a perfectionist, and if I had bungled that shit, I would have been really pissed off at myself.

Actually I believe they analyzed the recording and found that Armstrong actually did perform the line correctly(a man), but that in a freak coincidence, it was lost in the transmission.

Yeah, try harder. If you hadn't approached Deedub81 that day about "Oh my gosh, who is downvoting my comments!", this would never have happened.
I have no remorse concerning anything I've ever said to you. I can honestly say that I wouldn't pull you from the path of an oncoming bus.

>> ^UsesProzac:
It's really kind of exciting and an honor to be the first one hobbled!


Seriously, after UsesProzac's behavior on this thread, how come there aren't more ban votes? She is not at all sorry for her abuse and is even proud of causing all this trouble, and now she's essentially saying that thepinky should die. If you argued earlier that this doesn't matter because it's not on public threads, then that argument is moot now that UsesProzac has brought her vitriol into a public discussion.

thepinky may not want UsesProzac to be punished, but UP's behavior violates the Abuse Guidelines in the FAQ. Even if thepinky is fine with it, a significant amount of other users are not. Unless you are willing to defend UP's actual original comment, you can't seriously argue that she wasn't harassing or at the very least intending to harass thepinky.

Too many are focusing on burdturgler. Sure, he completely bungled his argument and ruined his own credibility with his own personal attacks, but that doesn't excuse UP's behavior.

A video released as part of a lawsuit against police in Millville, Philadelphia, shows an officer forcefully punching a woman in the face four times after he bungled an attempt to arrest her for riding a bike on the sidewalk.

As reported by NBC news, Sheila Stevenson, 42, has filed a civil suit (PDF), alleging police used excessive force, after then-Millville Police Officer Carlo Drogo stopped her one year ago on February 3 2008.

The newly released video shows Drogo attempting to use pepper spray on Stevenson while she is still on the bike, but instead spraying himself in the face.

As Stevenson struggles, a reeling Drogo knocks her off the bike and onto the ground.

Two more cops then arrive and haul Stevenson to the curb, one of them seemingly applying the full force of his upper arm onto her neck and head.

The same cop then thrusts his knee into her back twice, with full force, whilst attempting to handcuff her.

"I am not doing nothing," Stevenson screams.

"Put your hands behind your back," one of the other officers orders.

"Can you not do this? I'm not doing nothing! I'm not doing nothing," she wails.

Drogo, clearly in great discomfort from using his own pepper spray on himself, then approaches Stevenson after the other officers have restrained her and aggressively punches her in the face and head four times.

"Why are you hitting me? You're hitting me! Why are you hitting me?" Stevenson cries out. "Why did you hit me and I'm handcuffed?"

Stevenson was later convicted of resisting arrest. As noted by NBC10, Drogo resigned from the police department in October for undisclosed reasons. He has previously issued a statement defending his actions and maintaining that Stevenson's allegations represent a distortion of the facts.

5. Was elected president of my elementary school. My only presidential duty was to raise the flag every morning, which I passed off to my veep.

6. Used to write 'Weird Al' style parody songs. Unfortunately, the tape on which I recorded all of these songs was lost long ago.

7. Have wide feet.

8. My first car was a used 1988 Toyota truck which I kept until 2007. It was twice broken into and thrice stolen.

9. Studied percussion and composition at USC.

10. Was in the Disneyland Christmas Toy Soldier band for two holiday seasons.

11. Did not try drugs or alcohol until I was 20.

23. If I had billions of dollars, I would design video games and theme parks.

24. VS is the only online community I've ever become a part of.

25. Six inches, but girthy.

Actually I detected the sarcasm too, but right now I can't laugh about the violence, even sarcastically. That's all I meant. To me it's like laughing at the bungled government response to Hurricane Katrina victims right after the devastation.

Now I know it's not a cardinal sin, and I know Farhad is a good guy. My statement was merely a reflection of how gravely I view the current events emerging from the Middle East. Some will call me PC for it, but I don't care. I'm just expressing my point of view. No hard feelings intended toward Farhad.

It's funny how a small insignificant middle eastern state dictates the actions of one of the most powerful nations on earth.
Hilarious.

It would be funny if it weren't for all the dead people because of it. Nothing personal, Farhad. I just don't find it hilarious. Ridiculous? Yes. It is indeed worthy of ridicule, in the sense that scorn should be heaped upon it. But not hilarious. Sorry if I come across as an anal grammarian. But I just can't get past all the pictures of dead bodies.

I think I detected a strong hint of sarcasm in Farhad's comment.

I'm deathly afraid of that command. I've already bungled it once and had to throw myself at the feet of King Ant and beg for mercy. Fortunately he was very good-natured about it.

Be. Careful.

Don't go by the thumbnail, watch each video in entirety, double and triple check the submitted date and time, and double check to make sure you drop it in the right comment window. And for God's sake, don't drink and *dupeof.

Heathen, I'm directing that assertion at all the theorists frankly. You can be offended all you like, but the reason is as follows:

What does all this bullshit about it being an 'inside job' do to relatives of people who died on the day that have been unable to properly grieve? Thinking that there may be some unpunished crime that lead to their child's/father's/mother's death.

Ok, lets say what you're implying is true... lets say the US government, or clandestine parties within, hijacked four planes and flew them at four targets within their own borders. How can it be that NO official document has come to light in the last eight years with even a hint of any of this being orchestrated, nor has even a single whistle-blower come foward. Also... the Republican party risks being caught! If they were implicated in masterminding this, it would have them all sent to the gas chamber or shot by firing squad, with no exception! There is no way they would take the chance with a plot as risky as that.

By the way, do you really think a government that has bungled the Iraq/Afghanistan wars so badly, that we know so much about, could be pulled off by the lunatics currently in power?

Again, this is not just directed at you, but you must realise what entertaining the idea of what is suggested implies. And no, I didn't watch all of this, I just can't... it's such a frustrating grind to sit through so much waffle. If there was thermite in the dust everywhere, then there must be another logical explaination. Period. And by the way, the building did not just fall in it's footprint. There was extensive damage and fires cause in surrounding buildings, which is completely unlike a controlled razing.

I do not normally downvote videos, as I feel they need to be within a certain threshold of unsuitability for VideoSift. But I will now, I'm getting really sick of this disappointing garbage.

I was seaching for "Porn music" back in the crazy Napster days of 1999, and saw "Girls of Porn" turned up in my search results. This is how I discovered Mr. Bungle.

@notarobot: Blair is Catholic, it was kind of a big deal.
@dannym: "protests outside parliament were probably banned around the time terrorism was stepped up and people started crashing planes into buildings" ...
sorry danny, before saying things like "probably" you could just, you know, google, and find out "actually" that protests were banned outside parliament for only one reason, and that is Brian Haw kept insisting on telling the truth about serious war crimes, every day, in parliament square. They made an orwellian exclusion zone, after several failed attempts to remove him.
Also, it is very easy to block traffic in parliament square, I know, because I did it on the day they "debated" whether or not to go to war in Iraq. Kinda embarassing for them.
You could at least explain to me how banning protest makes London any safer from terrorist attack.
@Kerotan: wow, well done, americans are "way more exciting" than the reserved british, who i have only seen go mental for tony blair, princess diana, and soccer. But regardless of the amount of tickertape thrown around, the situation was very similar, years of supposedly "conservative" bungling, followed by a fresh new face promising "change"... people gave him a landslide.


Wow, well done for sounding like a patronising arsehole, it was difficult, but you managed it, here have a gold star you good boy! I'm well aware of the perceived British reserve, but even so I can't agree that it was that bigger deal (And I think how big the deal is important too), yes Tony Blair was a staunch catholic, but in the same way Obama might be secretly gay in a shame marriage, the point being that Blair took great care not talk about religion and politics in the same sentence, its not like we elected the pope to be PM.

On most of your other points I agree with you, it was a landslide victory and yes the situation was very similar but I don't exactly equatable to Obama's win, even if I was an American living the UK, I don't it would have been possible for me to get any more excited than I was at the time, which to be frank wasn't much.

Bungled that. Let's try again.
