The potential for excellence was there.

However, crafting a rap song with little concern for proper rythm and using a computer generated voice that doesn't even follow the beat is not, unfortunately, "hot."

I don't know CF12, there was a sort of charming slap-dashed-ness about it. Like the person who made it got and idea, and 20 minutes later had the final product.

Though, yeah. It was clever, it could have been brilliant with a bit more work.

That ubiquitous robot voice can go straight to hell.

it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Coincidentally, our microwave platter just cracked in three pieces, and it turns out they're stupidly expensive to replace. $25 for a glass plate?

Cheap microwaves are nothing to laugh at.

Like I said, the potential for excellence was there. Maybe five more minutes spent making it... I don't know, "better" would have been beneficial.

Then again maybe I'm just being a blackhole for positive energy.

I was waiting for someone to parody that song in some way...and now it has arrived.

Prepare for the deluge.

The facebook link requires a login and therefore is useless to me.

I have heard of people dumping a car when the ashtrays got full. Now, one sells a microwave when it gets dirty? Progress.

Lame tags, dude.

Lame tags, dude.

I was set to be all "you're complaining about the tags?? Look at the post, the POST I tell you!!"

But damn. You are correct. It's kind of like this post is echoing.

I'm disappointed. I thought I was going to find out where to acquire a stolen microwave.

vronsky--
I'm saving up to buy you a new brain.
This may take a while.

Vronsky - just stick it in the micorwave for a few minutes. That should unimplode it.

Ah, whatever, it sucked, just in a different way than the original, in which the dude embarrasses himself by bragging about how he doesn't even have to rap, and then... really really doesn't. Also, rhyming "hot" with "not" is all he can bring.

Way better: What You Know About Math? (chopped and screwed)
