“To me the great hope is that now these little video recorders are around and people who normally wouldn’t make movies are going to be making them. And suddenly, one day some little fat girl in Ohio is going to be the new Mozart and make a beautiful film with her father’s camcorder and for once, the so-called professionalism about movies will be destroyed, forever, and it will really become an art form.”

When Francis Ford Coppola spoke those prophetic words in 1991, he had the vision to see where the proliferation of consumer-level video technology was going in the coming years. Now, millions have access to the keys to the filmmaking kingdom in their very own homes.

One thing he was not able to presage (along with his complete and utter descent into hackdom) was that this video revolution would not end up with a new Mozart, but rather, tons of homemade music videos for lousy songs. Case in point:

“Kitten filled Music video for Matchbox Twentys new hit song How Far We’ve Come made for people who love both the two and cant seem to find too much of a good thing”

Now, this alone would warrant a post on its own. But- BUT – the video has a stunning 620,461 views and 1,489 comments (as of this writing). Let’s browse a few,shall we?

the kitty on 1:32 looks like its sad and waving goodbye….but this song is awsome and really cute kittens and cats

lol this vid was added on 9/11

ok…the song is awesome, but the video and the song together is a little too ironic…it’s almost like the person who put the cats to this song completely ignored what the song is about, which isn’t really that cool…

Uhhhh……..i’m married into the family of a former astronaut who founded this information with a handful of scientists and nasa personel. I’ll give you a hint. Apophis. The years 2027 and 2036 are involved. Please don’t ask me why no one has heard of this in the news. Don’t have time for that. Just think about how society would change.

yeah. the top scientist predict a Nuclear War in 2027. they say its gonna be the greatest nuke war ever. couse we found new wepons and put stuff like Red Mercury in em. wich makes em nucleur. put nuclure stuff in a nuclear bomb.wow! lets see how far we’ve come after that. p.s. i love this song!!!

I hate cats but that was flat out Killin. It was the longest cat video i’ve seen to date. That’s alot of cats. Don’t forget the lion in the mirror.

My favorite, though- the one that sums it up so perfectly-

some one likes cats

Indeed they do, sir. Indeed they do.



So, this guy (who obviously needs to Get Off The Internet) decides to get himself a tattoo of Tay Zonday. Yes, that Tay Zonday. The guy who epitomizes “fifteen minutes of fame” like no other. The guy whose career apex is a Diet Dr Pepper ad.

This is the tattoo in question (turn down the sound if you don’t want to hear “Chocolate Rain” ever again):

And these are the best of the YouTube comments, the first coming from Mr. Zonday himself:

LOL I don’t know what to say. I’m flattered? Heeheeee

This is, of course, the exact point in which things go downhill.

are you serious?! wtf!!! hey look im on top of Tayzonday! dat’z pretty crazy thou you got a tatto of him!!!

i admire tay but i wouldn’t have gone that far.

I don’t even know what this means:

I got happyslip on my arm, nalts on my ass and smosh on my boobs. :D

But apparently this guy does (or he wants to see ass and boobs):

LEt me see that sounds cool, message me

I like this guy because he just repeats what happens on the screen. I bet he’s great fun to go to the movies with:

hahaha. Out of all the people he could get a tattoo of, he gets one of Tay Zonday

Apparently, ink doesn’t suit this gentleman’s taste, but really weird-looking emoticons do.

People have gone WHACK with this whole TAT thing – like machine gunz blazing with ink – ratta tat tat – ALL OVER the place… Shit – If you were born to be tatted out – you’da been born in an inkwell – maybe with the firm imprint of the first slap – tatted to your ass!
;=]

This guy doesn’t like someone making money off other people’s idiocy:

Thats just annoying as an artist I think if I were asked to tat something like that I would smack the idiot and kick him out of my business but hey to each his own,now with that said it came out pretty good nice work lol

I suppose valon18 doesn’t regret skipping English class.

wtf… no life
have fun regreting it for the rest of your life dumb ass

Everyone knows “dumbass” is one word, dumbass.

Wait, what?

You’re an idiot. I hope you don’t reproduce. I bet you vote Democrat. Dope.

At least he knew where the shift key was.

It wouldn’t be a YouTube comment party without a random bit of homophobia that makes the Internet the hub of intelligent discourse that it is:

SO FUCKING GAY!!!!!!!! Tattooo a chick or a fucking Panda on your arm… not Tay ZOnday… what a fucker

That’s right! Pandas are so goddamn hetero it hurts.

Finally, here’s the most depressing thing ever typed by another human being, ever:

I hope you got aids from that needle

Oh, wait, no, there’s a response that makes me hate humanity even more:

Me too, hope you get aids, tetanus and then die.
