- Nitrouz, on 10/08/2008, -2/+194I said you can digg whatever you like
- kiiwii, on 10/09/2008, -16/+178I'm proud to say I've never heard the song this is parodying.
- inactive, on 10/08/2008, -2/+141When you tell your woman she can super-size it in front of the cashier, it's hard not to feel like a pimp.

- AlDaTbagsNChina, on 10/09/2008, -7/+118He who is tried of Weird Al is tried of life.
- Homer Simpson - masterkenobi, on 10/09/2008, -1/+105I tired to understand what you were saying, but I'm too tried to care.
- Trots, on 10/08/2008, -3/+91He always does an amazing job parodying rappers.
- Falldog, on 10/09/2008, -4/+85Hearing this is heart warming simply for the realization that I haven't heard the original song.
- inactive, on 10/09/2008, -13/+89This is the first time I've heard a Weird Al song, without ever hearing the original song. This song (the original) is number one right now? God the state of popular music gets lower every year.
Weird Al is great. - inactive, on 10/08/2008, -7/+78Weird Al for President!
- inactive, on 10/09/2008, -12/+75You're right, I can't keep up with the times. Music now is just as good as it used to be. You know, now that the "artists" don't write their own songs, everything, including their voices is computerized, and all their "concerts" are lipsynched. And the content of the music nowadays is so deep and meaningful. "I got mo money, I got D'z on my 'Pala', Ridin' on dubz, what what" Yep, much better than the crap us old guys listen to.
- yomamaisfat, on 10/09/2008, -0/+59More power to Weird Al; still going strong after all these years.
- bwishey, on 10/09/2008, -3/+5148
- DamnMan, on 10/09/2008, -5/+45Thank god someone else hasn't either. Who the ***** is T.I (Besides Texas Instruments) and why do I feel so god damn old asking despite being under 30.
Also shelter22, Obviously Weird Al always picks what songs to parody based entirely on artistic merit. "Ridin' Dirty" was a truly epic harmonic tapestry woven from the threads of complex social issues... - inactive, on 10/09/2008, -1/+40It's all about the Pentiums...
- libbydoo, on 10/08/2008, -1/+38Wierd Al is the master of the parody. Any other parody of any song does not compare to anything that he does.
- onlysc, on 10/09/2008, -2/+35how old is he now?
- GamingForever, on 10/09/2008, -4/+37Weird Al is great! Dugg for Weird Al!
- customer, on 10/09/2008, -4/+31i tired to make this joke first :(
- inactive, on 10/09/2008, -1/+24No worries - Al's version is almost always better than the original.
- inactive, on 10/09/2008, -0/+23I thought you were joking at first. But it turns out you do actually think that creating a hit song from scratch is easier than changing the lyrics to be funny.
- lilhelper, on 10/09/2008, -1/+23You could even have a large fry.
- soadnick, on 10/08/2008, -3/+23That's kind of far. Do you think you can chip in for gas?
- inactive, on 10/08/2008, -13/+33i love me some weird al, at leat when i was a kid
- Rizoh, on 10/09/2008, -1/+21Yeah, it's the first time he's titled a parody song after the original. He said so in his blog.

- airwalkery2k, on 10/09/2008, -0/+17It's funny how if you told somebody in the 1980's, "20 years from now Weird Al Yankovic will be more culturally relevant than Michael Jackson," people would have laughed you out of the room.
- inactive, on 10/09/2008, -1/+18Three more: "what you mean?"
- prefixmag, on 10/09/2008, -0/+17I like the song, but I think his videos make his songs even better. I can't wait to see the video for this one.
- RealmDown, on 10/09/2008, -0/+16He and Al Gore co-invented the salad.
- jonshipman, on 10/09/2008, -2/+18Time to bust out the walking cane
- ross., on 10/09/2008, -2/+17?much lexic-dys
- LanceWindu, on 10/09/2008, -0/+15Rifftrax is made by Mystery Science 3000 creator Mike Nelson. They are MP3's you play at the same time as your DVD's and it's like watching MST3k, but with movies like Jurassic Park, Star Wars, Harry Potter, etc.
The Jurassic Park one has Weird Al as a special guest. - inactive, on 10/09/2008, -0/+15Well yeah but what does Julius Caesar have to do with anything?
- JazminMillion, on 10/09/2008, -0/+14I love Al, I am glad he is still true to his style after all these years!
This song is right on the Money! - KotoOni, on 10/09/2008, -0/+14This song rocks! But doesn't he usually change the title name of the original song?
- rheaume, on 10/09/2008, -0/+13Wow, they really cheaped out on the video :p
- inactive, on 10/09/2008, -2/+15We've had enough presidential parody, thank you.
- Cashmoney504, on 10/09/2008, -0/+13Its easy now watch me crank dat cotton gin up in this whoaaaaaaaaa
- TehJazz, on 10/10/2008, -0/+12You had 69 diggs, and i ***** it up.
Sincerely,
#70 - FlyingPhotog, on 10/09/2008, -0/+12R-A-M-E-N

- crescentfreshld, on 10/09/2008, -3/+14The first album I ever bought was Weird Al's "Even Worse." Now he's parodying songs that I've never heard......
- mcsenget, on 10/09/2008, -1/+12I think Weird Al is so great but in a way I'm starting to wish that he would not do parodies and just write his own songs now because of the current state of popular music.
It was more fun to hear parodies of good songs rather than rap music and other contemporary stuff. - Blind0825, on 10/09/2008, -0/+11HOW. DARE. YOU.
- yetAnotherCroc, on 10/09/2008, -0/+11Weird Al! You glorious bastard!
- Arcueid01, on 10/09/2008, -0/+11This parody is sweet because you know what is really cool is that it makes fun of a lame song. The song is lame because it shows just how pathetic American culture can be. Moral of the video: You love me girl because I buy you anything you want. Not because I'm hardworking, treat your right, plow you good, etc; rather, I buy you lots of stuff and I have money. So sad. That said, the song does have a catchy beat and rhythm. Props to T.I. for knowing just what Americans love.
- pbol01, on 10/09/2008, -7/+17I agree, modern "music" blow horn!
Name one "contemporary" band that has the depth and skill of Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin?? -
