Weird Al Yankovic has done it again, one of the funniest things i've seen in a while.

I'm a big Star Trek fan so when Wierd Al was comparing Kirk to Picard, it hit a little close to home. :o

Haha, he imitated that fat kid on the internet who was pretending to be a Sith, then got all embarrassed about it when he found out that his video "somehow" got on the internet. :p

That was great, probably his funniest song in years (Off The Deep End was gold, but there hasn't been much to speak of since).

Greatness!
He's back! I haven't laughed that hard at any music video since "I'm Fat"!
Strange thing is ... the lyrics are intelligent (always has been), and creative.
He really should get a lifetime acheivement award.

The funny thing is that Weird Al's version is better than the original. :D

I liked seeing Weird Al as Ghyslain Raza (the Star Wars Kid). But I wonder if Al got his inspiration for this video from this one.
Thread cross references:Star Wars Kid-A Mustsee (first mention at MacRumors)

Where can I see the Star Wars kid video?

Am I the only one who sometimes starts to like the original only after Wierd Al spoofs it?

It's a little ditty called "Ridin' Dirty" by the one and only Chamillionaire. What a classic. :rolleyes: I actually didn't know that either until I looked it up online. After listening to them both, I can definitely say with conviction that Weird Al's version is better. :p

Very good parody and a great video. I'm glad to see Al's still kickin' even if his new album is meh ;)

My favorite music weird al yankovic
(should have been one of the lines)
Not saying it's a bad thing it's just true.
I still think it's hard to top the amish man flicking off tourists (off to get video of amish paradise)

That's awesome - nice cameos in that as well. Seth Green (Robot Chicken, etc) with the collectables, classic.

Saw this a few days back, my face literally fell apart. Absolute funny. I don't even like/know about half that stuff but the "And the question I find so hard, is do I like Kirk or do I like Piccard?", Patrick Stewart's big grin. oh i laughed.
I still think it's hard to top the amish man flicking off tourists (off to get video of amish paradise)
I'm sure its our differences in location... but do you know what flicking off means? better still look for it on a torrent app.

I first heard this song while in listening to the radio in the car.
Almost crashed into a telephone pole.

Did anyone notice Al uses Mac OS X in the video.

Yep, and that's MacSolitaire he's playing :)

Anyone else notice when he's standing in front of the candles, they're in the shape of Pac Man?

Hysterical! That song will never sound the same to me now either. :D

Holy crap, that might possibly replace "It's All About the Pentiums" as my favorite Weird Al song. And obviously he likes Picard more 'cause he made it into the song twice (painting and earl grey tea reference).

You are correct sirs. at least according to Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_and_Nerdy) under cameos.
[edit] forgot to say...that was the best video I've seen in many years. I simply could not stop laughing.
