Sending this one out to Elon.

Also google/Alphabet, with their time-wasting incorrect AI slop search results!

Long live the sites and search aggregators that let us do direct search queries on them. AI merits research, and we can expect some MODEST improvements coming from it in the years to come -but at the present time, it’s just SLOP. Google, Meta, and Microsoft are just perpetrating a tech con. Forcing incorrect AI search results is an attempt to gaslight you into believing the tech is presently extremely useful. It’s a con promoted by them out of plain+simple greed.

They want to have an AI tab and you can choose that? Fine! I have to waste time always scrolling past incorrect answers?? Fok dem’!

This one is for Bunker Boy, returning to the scene of the crime of incompetent tariff strategy.

Wanna run a pool for him to do it a third, fourth, fifth…times? Whenever he wants to be the center of attention, he will go there…

Voice synthesis -one of the FEW things AI can presently do well! (though I strongly doubt that musical composition was done with AI…)

That is insane. I really would have thought it was real. And actually kind of better than the original because I wasn’t a huge fan of that exact song. I love Nirvana just never liked some of their songs and the way people didn’t even listen to the lyrics when they came out. My older brother Ann me would would always argue about music. I was more of a punk rocker but also loved oldies which at the time was 50’s to early 60’s rock. Old man rant over! :squinting_face_with_tongue:

If you will indulge me with a funny anecdote that this reminds of, with regards to Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs. There was an episode of The Monkees where they had a battle of the bands contest (and for the life of me: I can’t find it online!) They have along with the Monkees a number of groups emulating rock bands of the day: a group that looks like The Stones, etc. Also in the contest was Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs (an actual guest appearance…) At the end, when it is time to announce the winner (and of course the Monkees are hopeful after playing their well produced video…), the announcer says: ā€œLester Flatt and Earl Scruggs!ā€

A bunch of teeny boppers storm Lester and Earl, to tear off their clothes -hilarious!


A funny episode regarding political donations!

It was used for the opening credits of a German sitcom -hence the German vocals here.

White and Nerdy-Al Yankovic

They see me mowin’ my front lawn
I know they’re all thinkin’ I’m so
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Can’t you see I’m white and nerdy
Look at me I’m white and nerdy

I wanna roll with the gangstas
But so far they all think I’m too
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
I’m just too white and nerdy
Really, really white and nerdy

First in my class here at MIT
Got skills, I’m a champion at D&D
M.C. Escher, that’s my favorite M.C.
Keep you’re 40, I’ll just have an Earl Grey tea
My rims never spin, to the contrary
You’ll find that they’re quite stationary
All of my action figures are cherry
Stephen Hawking’s in my library

My MySpace page is all totally pimped out
Got people beggin’ for my top eight spaces
Yo, I know pi to a thousand places
Ain’t got no grills but I still wear braces
I order all of my sandwiches with mayonnaise
I’m a wiz at Minesweeper, I could play for days
Once you’ve see my sweet moves, you’re gonna stay amazed
My fingers movin’ so fast I’ll set the place ablaze

There’s no killer app I haven’t run
At Pascal, well I’m number one
Do vector calculus just for fun
I ain’t got a gat, but I got a soldering gun
Happy Days is my favorite theme song
I could sure kick your butt in a game of ping pong
I’ll ace any trivia quiz you bring on
I’m fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon

Here’s the part I sing on…

They see me roll on my Segway
I know in my heart they think I’m
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Can’t you see I’m white and nerdy
Look at me I’m white and nerdy

I’d like to roll with the gangstas
Although it’s apparent I’m too
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
I’m just too white and nerdy
How’d I get so white and nerdy

I been browsin’, inspectin’ X-Men comics
You know I collect ā€˜em
The pens in my pocket, I must protect them
My ergonomic keyboard never leaves me bored
Shoppin’ online for deals on some writable media
I edit Wikipedia
I memorized Holy Grail really well
I can recite it right now and have you R-O-T-F-L-O-L

I got a business doing websites
When my friends need some code, who do they call?
I do HTML for ā€˜em all
Even made a homepage for my dog, yo
I got myself a fanny pack
They were havin’ a sale down at The Gap
Spend my nights with a roll of bubble wrap
Pop, pop - hope no one sees me gettin’ freaky

I’m nerdy in the extreme
Whiter than sour cream
I was in AV club and glee club
And even the chess team
Only question I ever thought was hard
Was ā€œDo I like Kirk or do I like Picard?ā€
Spend every weekend at the Renaissance Fair
Got my name on my underwear

They see me strollin’, they’re laughin’
And rollin’ their eyes cause I’m so
White and nerdy

Just because I’m white and nerdy
Just because I’m white and nerdy
All because I’m white and nerdy
Holy cow, I’m white and nerdy

I wanna bowl with the gangstas
But oh well, it’s obvious I’m
White and nerdy

Think I’m just too white and nerdy
Think I’m just too white and nerdy
I’m just too white and nerdy
Look at me I’m white and nerdy
