Is this what it takes?

If this is what it takes to reach disaffected urban youths, the world is a sad, sad place. I blame George Bush. NSFW.

    It is catchy, but it’s just wrong.

    “Read a book, read a book, read a mothafuckin’ book”.

    I’m going to go read a mothafuckin’ book, not a magazine, a mothafuckin’ book.

    That was so damn awful that no one in this house even wandered in here to see WTF I was listening to. Really.

    And around here? When your family isn’t nosy that means it’s REALLY bad.

    What a crock. The man should know by now that it takes more than edgy animation and swearing to get our attention. It takes bitches and hos too.

    BPR, it is catchy, I’ll give you that. I just can’t see kids watching this and running out and buying deodorant and toothpaste, though.

    Angel, me too. I love reading muthafuckin’ books!

    Amanda, exactly.

    Sheila, nope. It actually aired on BET.

    Amy, oh I just know you have it on reply on your iPod now.

    HG, read a muthafuckin’ book!

    Tana, me either. Here I was reading water, drinking books, selling land, and using my kids as deodorant!

    Jay, more bitches and hos would have been aight.

    LOL!

    That’s pretty cool, in a f**ked up way. And catchy. You think the Spice girls will do a cover of this song?

    I watched the first minute without audio. Stupid. Everyone else seems to love it so the audio must be the redeeming quality.

  12. I liked it too. It’s one of those kind of “songs” my boys would’ve made up and sung down in the basement where I “couldn’t” hear them. :sexytime:

    BRILLLLIANT. My favorite was the bouncing ass with the word book scrawled across it.

    I really need to do more, say more with my junk in the trunk.

    Y not I, Schoolhouse Rock isn’t much better.

    RW, liar.

    Mike, one can only hope.

    Poppy, you need to put the music up, even if it’s just a low level.

    Geeky, as long as they’re getting the education message . . .

    BrittHouse Rock, I agree. I think assvertising could be your niche.

    Clown, indubitably!

    I will sell by zone. The less cottage cheese, the higher the premium.

    Nope. I think it’s good. I think Spice Girls suck, this video is great, and I’ll have another Bloody Mary thanks.

    Must be the meds I’m on, or the lack of wine. Huh? So they have to read a book to learn all of this because they don’t have parents to teach them? Or did I miss something? I am still a bit loopy!

  22. I think I might go read a book…or smoke some crack.

    Tell me how you really Britt, BWAHAHAHAHAH! You’re going to make Billions!

    RW, you’re just trying to drink to forget your new job starting in four days.

    TrishK, I think you’re still a bit loopy, yes.

    Dawn, is that what your butt looks like when you’re shaking it on the dance floor?

    Bec, I keep randomly bursting into song. “Read a book, read a book, read a muthafuckin’ book!”

    Wayne, you’re wayyyyy too white to do that.

    Amy, yeah, blame RW for your rampant alcoholism.

    Mistress Yoda, just make sure your teeth are brushed.

  24. I always brush before I smoke crack, I make sure to floss afterwards too.

    My twelve year old son is more likely to pick up a book after hearing that then if I asked him to do it.
    Now I will be singing this thing all day long!

    Mistress Yoda, that’s good. Dental hygiene is essential for today’s modern crack whore.

    Jen in OK, really? And will he keep reading because he finds it fun, thanks to the “clever” rap video?

    but. It made me run out and bu some. And I had a glass of water

  28. jen in OK says:

    Probably not but he will keep singing the song over and over and over beeping out the muthafuckas. He will do this until I take the book and knock him out with it. :banghead:

    Actually, I find fiction in the form of literature to be rather boring. However, due to wikipedian synopses, I have the semblance of being very well read.

    I spend many, many hours reading. Online. About science, philosophy, the news…

    But fiction in the form of a book bores me to tears…

  32. Avitable says:

    BPR, apparently it’s wreaked havoc on your ability to string words together coherently, though.

    Jen in OK, I guess books ARE good for something, then.

    Natalie, fo shizzle indizzle.

    Mistress Yoda, as long as you’re topless, I’m okay with that.

    The Scoot, really? There’s nothing I’d rather do than get away from everything and read a book.

    I turned on the sound and watched it less time than when the sound was off. Not funny for me. I guess we’ve found my limit.

    (Sorry, that made no sense the first time.)

    Mistress Yoda, you need a webcam, then.

    Lynda, oh, it’s not worth the anticipation.

    Amy, RW is awesome. Even for an old guy!

    RW, are you bopping around the kitchen singing this?

    Poppy, you couldn’t make it through the whole thing?
