Call Me Maybe Heavy Metal Cover

Jun 272012

The summer’s hit single Call Me Maybe is the epitome of an up beat, positive, teeny bopper, please everyone pop song. The exact opposite of heavy metal music.

AndyRehfeldt arranged and recorded death metal music for the song and had his fan NewSkies perform the lyrics. Now, the three week old heavy metal spoof of the giddy song just went viral now, and is featured on TimeMagazine and NowMSN.

Syncing the death metal music with Carly Rae Jepsen’s performance on ABC is just so entertaining.

Horrible Parents Won’t Let Mensa Toddler Use The Restroom During TODAY Interview

May 122012

Emmelyn Roettger was just announced as the youngest person to be accepted into the hyper-intelligent MENSA group, and was invited with her parents to tell their story on ABC’s Today show. But even though she’s apart of MENSA now, that doesn’t mean she is no longer a person, let alone a child.

Throughout the interview she had to use the bathroom, and expressed that fact clearly, but her parents, along with Natalie Morales, ignored her, forcing her to endure the length of the interview like an adult. Natalie seems especially venomous. Read more on Jezebel and Guyism.

ABC’s Bill Weir had a chance to take a tour of the plant and interview a woman on the factory line. It’s hard to believe she was being completely honest with her answers, and shocking to find out she has never even held a finished, working iPad before.
