It's a pretty accurate parody of gangsters paradise though

Jon Lajoie is pretty good, I'll upvote that.

Although lets be real Amish Paradise came at least 10 years before this guy, so Amish Paradise kind of paved the way for guys like Jon Lajoie

Maybe. I'd like to say one can cleverly write and sing and the other is good at dressup lol... Might be just a personal preference thing with me

Fair enough... but have you ever listened to a weird al original song that isn't a parody? I think he's pretty creative and clever in his own ways: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fn58OF_lA-Q

Terrible, man. Unfunny, dumb....Reminds me of Twitch streamers today who think they are talented and funny, and yet are neither. Stern was really funny before he grew a vagina, edgy, mean...but imagine if he started doing parodies these days...he'd be as interesting as Weird Al..But, to each his own, you know....

Way back when I was just a little bitty boy Living in a box under the stairs in the corner of the basement of the house Half a block down the street from Jerry's Bait Shop (You know the place) Well, anyway, back then life was going swell and everything was just peachy!

Except, of course, for the undeniable fact that every single morning My mother would make me a big ol' bowl of sauerkraut for breakfast

Aw, big bowl of sauerkraut! Every single mornin'! It was driving me crazy

I said to my mom I said, "Hey, mom, what's up with all the sauerkraut?" And my dear, sweet mother She just looked at me like a cow looks at an oncoming train And she leaned right down next to me And she said, "It's good for you!" And then she tied me to the wall and stuck a funnel in my mouth And force fed me nothing but sauerkraut until I was twenty six and a half years old

How is this funny? I just don't get it...he compared his mother to a cow...is he trying to entertain 4 year olds?? Whats going on

If you don't like it's that's fine. It's absurdist comedy

This is an absurdist comedy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yp_l5ntikaU What Al is doing is just absurd, hoping to get a nervous laugh in response, right.. I hope you see what I'm saying and the differences between a well written, clever thing and a jerkoff diary...?!

Yes, but a movie and song aren't the same thing.
