So the “The Jonas Brothers suck” video we posted the other day is still lighting up YouTube, with the original clip getting removed by the service (!), the guy who made it posting an “apology video” that predictably turns into more sorta-homophobic big-upping of himself, and, as is custom on YouTube, a countless number of response videos like the profanity-laced one above, which is by a very angry young woman who goes by the name of ADiehardFOBFan and who I think compares the Jonas Brothers to the masterminds of–wait for it!–9/11. Basically, all of this is making me really, really glad that webcams and YouTube weren’t around back in those days when I was really into embarrassing myself in the name of rebellion. Also: Slipknot is “emo”? Is that classification just given to anyone who wears makeup these days?
Re: The Jonas Brothers suck [YouTube]
LET PEOPLE WISH DEATH!!!!
The best quote from Conan that wasn’t actually in the movie, but said by a pre-pubescent girl on the internet.
@dickdogfood: Isn’t “ADiehardFOBFan” Ashlee’s flickr name? Class? Anyone? Anyone?
I TOTALLY THOUGHT THAT WAS A BOY
Winter vacation is a bitch.
I don’t think I have to see this video (can’t anyway, I’m at work) to figure its author assumes the masterminds behind 9/11 were all Iraqis doing the bidding of Saddam. Because that would be just too perfect/nauseating.
Don’t any of these girls have books to read?
@dickdogfood: Nothing so complicated. She doesn’t implicate anyone in particular for 9/11, but notes that she wishes death equally upon the masterminds of 9/11 (and more generally “people who have killed people”) and upon the JBs.
And since you can’t watch I’ll even give you the run-down on her two follow-up videos. In the first she and a friend analyze/mock the lyrics to “That’s Just the Way We Roll”:
“‘battle dance against Hanson’–who the hell is Hanson? Where did he come in?”
But she eats her words in the second: “You assholes got me deleted off of myspace!”
It looks like the JB fans are winning this brutal war of user-generated attrition.
I’m just waiting on “The Jonas Brothers shred” at this point, really.
