Aside from a couple of cute chicks, there is absolutely nothing redeeming about that whatsoever.  Why have you subjected me to this?  I ask you, WHY?!

Yea some of the chicks were hot, but the one singing was kinda ugly, and I think she even had a mustache in some scenes.

In addition to being a musician, I’m actually a television show creator and producer. I have a [production] company and I’ve been creating shows for a number of years. We just got an Emmy nomination this year and we have a series going on the Style network called "Instant Beauty Pageant" that my partner and I created and we produced with Warner Bros.

"Partner"?  I was going to say that it explains a lot... except I think he means business partner, not life partner.  And down goes my joke.

You can also never tell.  I had this total trendy english prof. in for both semesters in first year who was originally from California.  He kept on mentioning his partner and I thought he was gay all the way through until the very end where he mentioned "she" in regards to his partner.  Look, if it's not your wife and you're refering to her as 'partner' it's obviously not some chick you're banging.  Just call her your girlfriend.

Actually the only funny part of this story is that the guy was basically legally blind.  He had whatever condition it was that creates tunnel vision, and his sight was dropping at like 10-15% a year.  When I had him he was pretty much blind in one eye and like 30% in the other.  I guess we didn't put two and two together at the time, but he had like super hearing and must have heard so much smack we'd talk about him at the back of the class. Nothing overly mean, just the things you say about professors who you think can't hear you when you're like 18 years old for laughs.  He was talking to some chick about how his hearing was better, and he said something like "for instance, I know that the guys sitting over there really get a kick out of my earrings".  He had really horrible earrings.

And why isn't anyone explaining this to us?

The only thing I need to know is if this is a joke.

It's the internet.  It's sort of a joke, and sort of creepy because it's still somehow not completely a joke.

If you ever do soemthing that becomes wildly popular over the internet, seemingly overnight, stop and think twice about it. Those people may not be laughing with you. The internet didn't just decide at random that Rick Astley was a god amoung men and should be on everyone's mp3 player. People really didn't love Chocolate Rain. We were laughing at them. I always find it funny when one of the internet's victims is happy about all the popularity. Sure, be happy that you're making money off it, but at least know what's going on, haha.

I wondered when I first saw this how it ever got funded. I mean really, who in their right mind would fund that? Then I read the interview where he says that he gathered the money himself and funded the video on his own. How else would something like this see the light of day? Basically, some LARPer got into some money and this is what he did with it, rofl.

In the interview I posted above he mentioned that he runs a production company and has made a few shows, so guy probably has a decent amount of cash flow.

No no no, it has to be a bit of a joke...right?

You have to wonder that if this isn't doesn't this guy have any friends?  I mean the main benefit of good friends is that they'll smack you in the face and make fun of you for doing something stupid before you make a total fool of yourself out in public.  "Are you seriously wearing that fucking shirt right now?" .  You know when you see those women with fucked up makeup?  You can tell that they're all bitches because they don't have any friends to tell them they look stupid.  Was there really not one person that could take this guy aside and be like "Seriously, love has enemies?  Fucking dragons?!".
