This is what a song would sound like if the lyrics were a literal description of what was going on in the music video itself. You can find more of these over at LITERAL MUSIC VIDEOS.

Seth Simonds has compiled the NAPOLEON DYNAMITE GUIDE TO SOCIAL NETWORKING, because let’s face it — anyone who is a new user to Facebook, MySpace, bulletin board discussion groups, business networking events, speed dating, or any other forced social intermingling activity really needs a hand to break through the pre-established cliques and get away from being that awkward wallflower to become a true contributer to the situation.
And who knows, maybe you’ll meet someone and get a date out of it.
The first three rules are:
Take a look at Seth’s article for the other two examples and how Napoleon Dynamite applies to the points he is making.
The whole piece should really be subtitled, “EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT HOW TO SUCCEED IN SOCIAL NETWORKING I LEARNED FROM NAPOLEAN DYNAMITE”.
Don’t know if Seth will take my suggestion though. Maybe if I offer to draw him a liger, he’ll consider it.

The latest meme to spread across the Internet is USING WIKIPEDIA TO NAME YOUR BAND’S FIRST ALBUM.
It’s a three-part process as you discover the name of your band, the name of the album, and the album cover art.
Here is an example:
Do you have friends who text-message you a lot, each time with more and more obscure abbreviations and short codes that are beginning to annoy you because you don’t know what they mean?
I know, it would be easier for your friend to just call you or send you a normal email instead of trying to thumb their way through a cell-phone keypad to tell you where to meet them for dinner.
Luckily, you can pop over to TRANSL8IT, type in the message you received, and have the site convert the undecipherable message for you into ordinary English. Plus, if you have text-addicted friends and you want to look like you have a clue about how to text yourself, you can type in your plain-English message and have the site convert it into text-speak.
Here is a new use for your old record albums: SLEEVEFACE.
All you have to do is take a picture of yourself holding a record album cover up to your head (or other, appropriate part of the body… although, since this site is called SleeveFACE, you would think that a focus on the face would be the way to go).
The goal in the photo is to mimic the body gesture, photo angle, and any significant clothing in the album cover to make the image on the album sleeve appear seamless with the person holding the album cover up.
This is just another example of a great idea for a website being made into a book topic. Who said that the Internet was going to make books obsolete?
I love how creative people can get when given access to the iPhone developer application.
Here’s a video of someone using the iPHONE OCARINA APPLICATION. An ocarina is a small flute-like instrument, sort of a cross between a fancy kazoo and one of those recorders you played in kindergarten.
So some dude figured out a way to turn the iPhone into an ocarina. The touchscreen is a reasonable fascimile of the finger holes on the ocarina itself, but you make music by blowing into the iPhone’s microphone. Brilliant!

April 22, 2009 can’t come soon enough for many people – that’s when MICHAEL JACKSON WILL BE AUCTIONING OFF HIS STUFF.
Sure, it will cost you $20 just to attend the freakshow, but you know that will be money well spent just for the opportunity to browse through the King of Pop’s underwear drawer.
Bad example, perhaps. Think of that more figuratively than literally, please.
The auction will be broken up into 5 different categories, each taking place on different days:
Individually numbered and signed copies of the catalog will be available for $500.
