Kids: They Always Need A Beating. Trust Me....I Am An Expert.

Okay....are you shitting me?

You know, I am REALLY getting sick and tired of the coddling of America. You wonder why other countries are running laps around your children in education? This is reason number one right here: not breaking a foot off in a kids ass for breathing. Listen to this bullshit:

"It really is a form of abuse," said Ken Merrell, head of the Department for Special Education and Clinical Sciences at the University of Oregon. "It's going to do nothing to change the behavior. You're using it as an isolation booth."

No....abuse is giving a child a Stone Cold Stunner for not knowing the main export of Burkina Faso (Which for reference is AIDS). Leaving a child alone is a pointless endeavor because that time could be used to whoop some sense into the little fucker. Full rant about this on Sunday, I am out to see the greatest comedy ever told that is also the greatest tradgedy ever told..."W"

Review tomorrow after BOB MOTHERFUCKING SAGET!

He's the illest motherfucka in a cardigan sweater. Peace out until then.

Who Am I Kidding.....RAIN IS HERE!

What is up, people! It is another Friday and you know what that means. MAX PAYNE, BITCHES! But before I mark the hell out over that movie, it is time for what you came here for. It is time for the….

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!

Well, we start off with…..hell I will just say it: RAIN IS NO LONGER COMING, HE IS HERE!

20. Rain (Bi) – Love Story (New Entry)

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! After a damn near THREE YEAR HIATUS of pissing me off and making C- movies….THE KING HAS RETURNED! Sorry, TIP. This video makes….three parts of no sense but who cares? IT’S RAIN! I am also digging the preview for “Rainism” because I have been listening to that song non-stop since I got the album. Don’t ask how I got it, just go get it! Rain is back!
19. Bennie K feat SOFFet – Music Traveler (Last Week #16)
After a pretty average run it looks like Bennie K is spending their final week on the Countdown with this one. Oh, and I told you they would be all over the Chachi Awards.
18. Kanye West – Love Lockdown (New Entry)

Okay, let me just say this right here and now: I love this song. This video is on the weird side but most good ones are. Kanye has been all over 2008 and with the video for “Go Hard” coming soon….all I can say is hells yeah. Kanye can be a douche but the music is clean!
17. Young Jeezy feat Kanye West – Put On (Last Week #14, Three Weeks at #1)
So here comes the underdog! Young Jeezy has quietly had a great 2008 with “The Recession” being one of my favorite albums and this being one of my favorite videos. He has come a long way since “And Then What” which was one of the stupidest songs ever.
16. Big Bang – Number 1 (Last Week #19)
The Bang is booming! Big Bang moves up three spots this week as I anxiously await their Japanese album…in all English. Does anyone else feel a bit perturbed by this? Japanese people don’t speak English as their native language! I’ve heard them!
15. Maroon 5 – Goodnight, Goodnight (Last Week #12)

Looks like the return of Maroon 5 has been short lived. They fall three spots this week as I think it is time for a new album. Gimmie what I want!
14. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Remember (Last Week #17)
Hiroko and the crew move up three spots this week as we move along. I cant believe they broke up! Man, this is fricking clownshoes!
13. Game feat. Lil Wayne – My Life (Last Week #10)
Game and Weezy fall from the Top 10 this week as Game has quietly had a big year this year. As for Lil Wayne….I fucking hate “Lollipop.” Worst…song….ever.
12. Yuna Ito – Miss You (Last Week #13)

Mmmm, Miss Ito I have missed you. I am so hoping she does another live Christmas special because her rendition of “All I Want For Christmas” is so damn awesome that it makes me want to give her the nog. I know bitches don’t deserve the nog but Yuna Ito AINT NO BITCH! I’LL KILL YOU!
11. NERD feat Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pusha-T – Everybody Nose (Remix) (Last Week #8)
CRS falls out of the Top 10 this week after a great year for all of its individual members. Anyone hearing these rumors about The Neptunes breaking up? I mean….Pharrell and Chad were like the Black/Asian Hall & Oates! You’re still the one! Or something….
10. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #15, Co-Biggest Mover)
Kumi Koda is back! With her sexy, sexy self. For the first time in almost two years, Kumi Koda is back in the Top 10 after a few lackluster videos. My original baby boo has my heart once again. I love you, too! Not in the creepy stalker way…
9. FLOW – WORLD END (Last Week #6)

After a great return, FLOW fall three spots this week after being held from the number one spot by Fonzworth Bentley. You know, with two Naruto theme under their belt, can I just say that a FLOW Bleach opening would be KICK ASS. Speaking of Bleach, more on that later!
8. Alicia Keys - Superwoman (Last Week #9)
Miss Keys moves up a spot this week as she stakes a claim for Artist of the Year. Three Top Ten videos is a great case if I say so myself. Any reason why they play that stupid ass “Single Ladies” or whatever song by Beyonce as a ladies anthem but I never hear this song considered one? It’s why women will never advance. Take note from Black people! Not ALL Black people, though.
7. Fonzworth Bentley feat Andre 3000 & Kanye West – Everybody [Don’t Stop] (Last Week #5, Two Weeks at #1)
Fonsworth Bentley falls from the Top Five this week after a very good run. You know, I am wondering what his album is going to sound like. If it is anything like this and that song from that Gap commercial (Which was AWESOME! He and Robin Thicke had the best ones so far!) then I am hella excited.
6. Wonder Girls - Nobody (Last Week #11, Co-Biggest Mover)

So it looks like the Wonder Girls are dead set on me ending up in jail. I mean seriously, why do they keep making videos that kick ass like this?! It aint right! I say it aint! This is a tad bit catchier than “So Hot” and SooBin….yes. All I have to say is yes.
5. Hyori Lee – Hey Mr. Big! (Last Week #7)
We begin the Top Five with a familiar face! Hyori Lee is back at the top after a quick break from “U-Go-Girl” as we move on. Can I just say that she really….really needs to eat something? I mean I know that some people in Korea think that thin is in but a lil’ thick is how I wants my chick! Yeah, I’m awesome ladies. Holla at your boy and other stereotypical Black phrases!
4. John Legend feat Andre 3000 – Green Light (Last Week #2, One Week at #1)
After breaking the streak and returning to the top, John Legend and Andre 3000 fall two spots this week. Can I just say I am looking forward to “Evolver” a little more than “Once Again?” John, knock this album out of the park, son! We are down to three!
3. T.I. – What Up, What’s Happening (Last Week #4)

Well, the King is officially back. This is officially my favorite song out there because it is just one of those songs that makes you say “piss off” to all the haters. Too bad he will be gone for a year for being a dipshit but thems the breaks. I hope he learned something from all this.
2. UVERworld – Koishikute (Last Week #3)

UVERworld is one step away! The boys move up to the runner up spot this week as I await their new video for “Hakanakumo Towano Kanashi” from the Gundam 00 Second Season. As kick ass as that song is….HAVE YOU HEAR “VELONICA” FROM AQUA TIMEZ?! The new opening for Bleach is so kick ass it hurts! Remember “ALONES?” EVEN BETTER. Yeah, I went there. Until that video comes and rocks my face, we have a returning champ at number one!
1. Hearts Grow – Sora (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)

Hearts Grow makes it two big weeks at number one as they hope to dominate October! This song is officially a ringtone (Aside from Caramelledansen) and I must say….people don’t dig it. But since people are worthless I’m not bothered by it. This video and song are awesome and if you don’t like it you suck it dry.

Well, that is all for this week! Tune in next week to see if Hearts Grow can make it three weeks in a row! Or can UVERworld FINALLY end the almost two year streak and take over the top spot for the first time since November of 2006? Or will TI take his throne for the second time in 2008? See you in seven to find out!

Go see “Max Payne” tonight! I am also going to see “W” this afternoon so that should be good. Great laughs had by all! Until then, stay up peeps!

Aqua Timez: Rocking My World Since 2006

FINALLY Bleach is done with that mind-numbingly bad traitor captain arc (Been there, done that, done BETTER because Aizen is a DICK) and back to the arc from the manga. Now that the anime is safely behind the manga (SPOILER ALERT! Urahra gets a DeLorean because they go BACK TO THE FUTURE!) and about two arcs back, we get to see the most kick-ass part of the storyline in animated form. Also, AQUA TIMEZ IS BACK!

I guess UVERworld was predisposed making the kick ass Gundam 00 opening:

However if anyone got their second opening theme for Bleach, if it couldn’t be UVERworld is should be Aqua Timez. Here is hoping that either UVERworld or Yui is next!
So a few things I need to go over before I go:

1. How in the fuck did people beat Mega Man games for the Nintendo? I downloaded Mega Man 9 off of XBOX Live and even though it took me back to a simpler time….HOW IN THE FUCK DID I EVER BEAT ONE OF THOSE GAMES?! That shit was hard for no reason! Man, kids nowadays have no idea what hardcore gaming is. Go back and get yourself some R-Type, Gradius or Bar & The Space Mutants if you think you are bad ass. Now THAT was gaming! Also, it was back when controllers could take a beating. Simon Belmont wasn’t killing Dracula with a whip; that was a motherfucking Nintendo controller!

2. GO FALCONS! They have a bye this week but after two close games against two really good teams (Green Bay AT LAMBEAU and the Chicago Bears in a game that I swore the Wolven had forsaken me but once again he delivered) things are looking up. At least they will be equal to their win total last year, which is about three more games than I thought they would win. People say that Atlanta doesn’t support their sports teams which to a certain extent is true but I for one have stood by the Atlanta Falcons during their multiple….and by multiple I mean all but three….horrendous seasons and aside from maybe the Arizona Cardinals, no fans in the NFL have been more maligned than Falcons fans. Get behind your team, Atlanta! Although whoever started the “Matti Ice” nickname for Matt Ryan needs to be raped. Dumbest nickname ever.

3. Keith Olbermann….I know we usually don’t see eye to eye on most things but you are DEAD ON about the flames of racism being stoked by McCain and Palin:

I have been saying this for a few weeks now because the simple fact is this: if Barack Obama was a terrorist or a threat, he wouldn’t be a Senator, let alone a Senator running for President of the United Fucking States of America. I don’t care if you are a POW and I don’t care if you have been in the Senate for 24 or so years and a I REALLY don’t give a fuck about how much you “deserve” to be president because of what you have done. Your rallies ARE invoking the ghosts of Americas ugly racist past. When you have my grandparents, who LIVED THROUGH those horrible events in the South that Lewis speaks of and KNOWS what that evil and hate looks at because they looked that evil in the eye and voted anyway you know you have done something FUCKED UP. I have always respected you and your record and let you get away with a lot of shit because of what we agreed on in the past (Hell, I was going to vote for you at one point. AND I’M BLACK) but your response to YOUR supporters and the rhetoric that YOU are insinuating that your voters should look at rather than this issues is disgusting. DIS-GUST-ING.

To have the audacity to say that you hear the same racial/ethnic epithets and bigoted bile at Barack Obama rallies that we have heard at yours is ridiculous, bordering on lying your ass off. Even if you have, that is the voice of the people being morons and intolerant. At no point has Barack Obama made that part of his campaign strategy, at least from what I have seen and heard. Your campaign is quite simply using what makes him “different from us” as a point of debate among people. Guess what? At its core that IS HATE MONGERING. Now I say a lot of things for humor and a lot of things to get a rise out of people (Especially women and Blacks. Turks and Irish deserve it, though) but at the end of the day I believe that prejudice and racism are both reprehensible. Shocking coming from me, I admit. As one who has Muslim, Mormon, Catholic, Irish (Ugh…), Jewish, JEHOVAH’S WITNESS (Whoa…I may be a bit TOO tolerant),gay, lesbian and even Christian friends I am understanding of all people, even if we don’t agree.

The fact that YOU have had to stop people from spreading lies about your opponent is either poor damage control because you don’t believe what your own campaign is pushing or what your constituents believe in or once again a bold face lie to America because you believe it or you are trying to save face. Understand this: no one on the planet deserves ANYTHING. If you want it, you have to fight for it and if you don’t want to fight fair that is quite alright. But call it what it is, sir. You are slowly stirring a pot of racism that has been brewing since Barack Obama first got into this race; much like sexism was brewing when Hillary got in the race. However, Obama never used the “women should be in the kitchen, not in the White House” attack that honestly would have been douchetastic (NEW WORD!) and reeking of awesomeness and hilarity at the same time. He focused on what he would do for the country and Hillary did the same, but did go into the “woman power” bullshit which….totally cost her my vote. Long story short, John McCain IS stoking ingrained, racist views in some people out there and HE SHOULD be taken to task for it. Now if people are just SAYING that stuff, that is one thing. However, he and Palin are encouraging the “kill him” and “bomb Obama” comments by their words and not shutting these wackjobs up when they spout off. America is free, but if you yell “fire” in a crowded theater or in this case “TERRORIST” in front of some really stupid White people (Or to be fair, “nigger” at a 50 Cent concert although they might think you are singing along to “In Da Club” so you may get away with it) you should be held accountable. To not is….well….Un-American. Or totally American if you believe in Manifest Destiny and all. Either way, John McCain has officially made the list. Take a seat behind Dane Cook….jackass.

Well, off the soapbox for now. Stay up, peeps.

The Chachi Video Awards: Three Years And Running!

It is about that time! After delays upon delays for extenuating circumstances (Mainly my laziness) I have finally given the peeps what they are looking for! So after a long wait, it is time for the…

Chachi Video Awards Nominee Special!

After the success of the last two years it is time for year three which will be bigger and better than the last two combined! Begin the hyperbole! Let’s get started with the category for the most visually intensive videos…

Breakthrough Video of the Year

Seamo feat Ayuze Kozue – Honey
Usher – Moving Mountains
T-Pain feat. Lil Wayne – I Can’t Believe It
Namie Amuro – New Look
Asian Kung Fu Generation – After Dark
Gnarles Barkley – Run
Crystal Kay – Shining
Linkin Park – Leave Out All The Rest

Yeah, you see a T-Pain video in there. Suprisingly I liked that video a lot and the song was tolerable. Nice to see AKFG nominated for a video after the success of “After Dark” in 2007 but the big leader has to be Gnarles Barkley. That video was quite interesting and Justin Timberlake didn’t even fuck it up for me. Next, we have a category I really didn’t want to have but I put it in because….someone needs to tell these people they fucking suck….

Worst Video of the Year

G-Unit – Rider Pt. 2
Nana Tanimura – Jungle Dance
LL Cool J. feat. The Dream – Baby
Bi (Rain) – Any Dream
Lil Wayne feat. Static Major – Lollipop
Katy Perry – I Kissed A Girl
Nelly feat. Fergie – Party People
Leah Dizon - Vanilla

Leah Dizon and G-Unit are back! I hated those videos and don’t even get me started on my distain for that Katy Perry song. Just ass on wax. Now the surprise is Rain but man….that video made NO SENSE. Even his hotness couldn’t save it. But don’t discount the suck of Lil Wayne on the ironically titled “Lollipop” because that was a shitty video and an even shittier song. Way to live up to the hype. Next is arguably the category with the most fall off from last year….

Best Pop Video of the Year

Colbie Calliat - Realize
NLT – He Said, She Said
Paramore – That’s What You Get
James Morrison – You Give Me Something
Nelly Furtado – In God’s Hands
RBD – Inalcanzable
New Kids On The Block – Summertime
Lady GaGa – Just Dance

After the battle last year (Maroon 5, Nelly Furtado, RBD) this year’s nominees for Best Pop Video show how poor a year that pop music had. This looks like Paramore’s to lose but they are more rock than pop so look out for the returning NKOTB and RBD to make some moves. Next, we have arguably the toughest category this year….

Best J-Pop Video of the Year

Yui – Laugh Away
Hearts Grow – Sora
YA-KYIM – Super Looper
Namie Amuro – New Look
Bennie K – Monochrome
Foxxi MisQ – X.B.F.
Toshinobu Kobuta feat. Misia - Flying Easy Loving Crazy
NaNa – Show Girl

Man, this was a kick ass year for J-Pop! All but one (Yui, who had a rough year) of these videos hit number one in 2008 or late 2007 which shows that it may have been the dominant musical medium on the Countdown this year. YA-KYIM looks to be the front-runner in this category but TK & Misia had the longest stay on the Countdown in 2008 while Hearts Grow have been burning it up in the later months. And then there is Bennie K…seven weeks on top with one of my favorite videos and songs ever. EVER! This will be good! Now, we have the return of my favorite type of music…

Best K-Pop Video of the Year

Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl
SHINee – Replay
Wonder Girls – So Hot
Tae Yang – Prayer
Uhm Jung Hwa – D.I.S.C.O.
Big Bang – Haru Haru
Girls Generation (SNSD) – Kissing You
Jewelry – Everyone SHHH!

Yes, K-Pop has returned! With only Rain putting in work all of 2007, K-Pop ruled in 2008! Hyori Lee made a triumphant comeback while Wonder Girls proved they could be up there with the best of them. A surprise could be Uhm Jung Hwa with “D.I.S.C.O.” which may be the most danceable song of the year. Big Bang was their same old self and SHINee really shocked the hell out of me with ”Replay” because it was quite catchy. Now for the rockingest category to ever rock the rock….

Best J-Rock Video of the Year

FLOW – WORLD END
L’Arc~en~Ciel – DRINK IT DOWN
Nightmare – Lost In Blue
BACK-ON – Sands Of Time
KELUN – CHU-BURA
Maximum The Hormon – Tsume Tsume Tsume
HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – HOT LIMIT
Stance Punks – I Want To Be

Pretty stiff competition! KELUN, HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR and FLOW seem to be the front runners but don’t count out The Arc. With no Aqua Timez in their way, they could be able to take this category for the first time this year. Look out for Stance Punks, too. That song made “Soul Eater” tolerable. Now we have the first of two big returns….

Best R&B Video of the Year

Tae Yang – Look At Me
NaNa – Show Girl
John Legend feat Andre 3000 – Green Light
Alicia Keys – Like You’ll Never See Me Again
Toshinobu Kobuta feat. Misia - Flying Easy Loving Crazy
Usher feat Young Jeezy – Love In This Club
Foxxi MisQ – X.B.F.
Robin Thicke – Magic

R&B IS BACK! We have another rematch as Alicia Keys and John Legend are both nominated with two of the biggest videos of 2008! However, there could be a shocker as Toshinbou Kobuta and Foxxi MisQ both took the top this year and are serious threats. And then there was the return of Usher! Let’s not count out the returning Robin Thicke OR the dominance that NaNa showed in January and February. Tight race once again! Now it is time to get your boogie on….

Best Dance Video of the Year

Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl
Chris Brown – Forever
NaNa – Show Girl
Foxxi MisQ – X.B.F.
Usher feat Young Jeezy – Love In This Club
Wonder Girls – So Hot
Tae Yang - Prayer
May J. – Do Tha, Do Tha

Very interesting category this year with no Rain or J-Tim. However, I have to say that this looks like the Wonder Girls category to lose. I mean, just put in “so hot dance” in YouTube and you will see what I mean. Usher and Chris Brown have a shot but not a very good one. Damn it, those girls are going to be the death of me. Now, let us have more rock….

Best Rock Video of the Year

Asian Kung Fu Generation – After Dark
Paramore – That’s What You Get
Kelun – CHU-BURA
L`Arc~en~Ciel – DRINK IT DOWN
HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – HOT LIMIT
BACK-ON – Sands Of Time
UVERworld – Roots
Abingdon Boys School – BLADE CHORD

Yeesh, seems like the J-Rock category all over again. J-Rock was the only REAL rock in 2008 but Paramore did make a break out this year. They seem to be the frontrunners but HAMC’s breakup could put them as a winner as a last hurrah. KELUN has a claim to stake in this as well so this looks to be hotly contested! Now, HIP HOP IS BACK….

Best Hip-Hop Video of the Year

Kanye West feat Chris Martin – Homecoming
Young Jeezy feat Kanye West – Put On
T.I. – No Matter What
Snoop Dogg – Sexual Seduction
Game feat Keisha Cole – Game’s Pain
CRS (Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pharrell Williams) feat Thom Yorke – Us Placers
Lil’ Wayne feat Static Major - Lollipop
Fonzworth Bentley feat Kanye West & Andre 3000 – Everybody (Don’t Stop)

Okay, so there is a lot of Kanye here (four nominations) but say what you will about him the man can deliver when it counts. This may be the most difficult category to choose this year because all of these songs showed how hip hop has returned on both coasts and all styles. CRS looks to be the frontrunner but don’t count out Young Jeezy. As far as I am concerned….as shocking as it sounds….Young Jeezy created a classic with “Put On”. Now we are onto the anime….

Best Video from An Anime

Asian Kung Fu Generation – After Dark (Bleach)
Hearts Grow – Sora (Tetsuwan Birdy Decode)
TM Revolution – Resonance (Soul Eater)
ON/OFF - Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi (Vampire Knight)
Megumi Hayashibara – Plenty of Grit (Slayers Revolutions)
Ikimono-Gakari – Blue Bird (Naruto: Shippuuden)
UVERworld – Geikido (D. Gray Man)
FLOW – WORLD END (Code Geass R2)

Oooohhhhhh, interesting year! Ikimono-Gakari and Hearts Grow look to be on top of this but ON/OFF had caught my attention, especially with everyone’s love of Vampire Knight. With all that said….TM REVOLUTION IS BACK, BITCHES! Yeah, this will be good. Now, it is time for the best team award….

Best Group Video of the Year

Kelun – CHU-BURA
Paramore – That’s What You Get
YA-KYIM – Super Looper
CRS (Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pharrell Williams) feat Thom Yorke – Us Placers
Wonder Girls – So Hot
HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – HOT LIMIT
Bennie K – Monochrome
Hearts Grow – Sora

Well, this looks to be hard to choose as well. All these videos went to number one and make up almost HALF of the 52 weeks of the year with these 8 videos. Domination at its finest. All have a rightful claim but with seven weeks on top, Bennie K looks to be the leader right now. Don’t count out CRS, though. Now it is time for the fellas to get their due….

Best Male Video of the Year

Usher feat Young Jeezy – Love In This Club
Toshinobu Kobuta feat. Misia - Flying Easy Loving Crazy
Kanye West feat Chris Martin – Homecoming
Game feat Keisha Cole – Game’s Pain
John Legend feat Andre 3000 – Green Light
Fonzworth Bentley feat Kanye West & Andre 3000 – Everybody (Don’t Stop)
Young Jeezy feat Kanye West – Put On
T.I. – No Matter What

John Legend vs. TI? Usher vs. Fonzworth Bentley? Game vs. Young Jeezy?! Hell yeah, this is a category for your ass! Toshinobu looks to actually have the upper hand in this one due to how long his run was but every video on here has a chance to take this one. This was the year of the man….about fucking time. This time, ladies DIDN’T go first but here they are….

Best Female Video of the Year

Nelly Furtado – In God’s Hands
Alicia Keyes – Like You’ll Never See Me Again
May J. – Do Tha, Do Tha
Yui – Laugh Away
NaNa – Showgirl
Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl
Erykah Badu - Honey
Yui – Namidairo

It was a rough year for the ladies after last year’s dominance (Nelly Furtado, Yui, Namie Amuro, NaNa and Alicia Keys all took up over 2/3rds of the chart time at number one) but they still had a great year on the Countdown. It looks like a tough category again but I will have to say that NaNa looks to have this one by a SLIM margin. Alicia Keys and May J both can lay claim to the award as well but we will have to see. Now it is time for the grand finale….

Best Video of the Year

Bennie K – Monochrome
CRS (Kanye West, Pharrell Williams & Lupe Fiasco) feat Thom York – Us Placers
NaNa – Movin On
Usher feat Young Jeezy – Love In This Club
YA-KYIM – Super Looper
Young Jeezy feat. Kanye West – Put On
Wonder Girls – So Hot
Paramore – That’s What You Get

Now on the top level, it looks like Bennie K has this on lockdown. However, just because UGK won last year because they had the most weeks on top doesn’t mean Bennie K can. There is a lot tougher competition this year as CRS, Usher, YA-KYIM and Young Jeezy all had more dominant runs. Wonder Girls totally broke through this year while Paramore finally cemented their names with great rock bands to chart. The dark horse is NaNa who barely missed out on last year’s video of the year award but with six weeks on top, she is hard to ignore. Damn, this is gonna be tough!

Well, the nominees are set and ready to go! There will be some pre-show awards to be given the morning of my final decision and just like last year the peeps are encouraged to give their input! The Chachi Video Awards will be given out on Sunday, November 2nd and I hope to see you all there! Until then, stay up!

Chachi Out!

The Dead Have Risen! And The Are Voting Republican!

Okay, I am back up again. It is bedtime (Seeing as how I have been getting to sleep at 2am despite having to be in Denver by 8am everyday this week) so there are a few things I need to get off my chest and then I am out.

Pissed Off Point #1: Yeah, I Want A Margarita, Not Your Panties. Thaaaaaaaaanks….Dumb Bitch.

Okay, I would like to think that I don’t just exude “Can I Get Some!” whenever I speak to females. I mean, I treat them with more respect than I treat the Irish (If you are a female and Irish, you are getting slapped. You are used to it anyway. ZING! I kid, I kid) which is pretty well by my standards. However, it has seemed over the last I would say three years or so (Pretty much once I hit 25) that whenever I am talking about anything….EVER….with a female she has to bring up her boyfriend/husband/significant other. Which is cool, if it is IN CONTEXT. I used the title for this post because a few days ago when I went out to lunch with a friend of mine (Well, KIND OF FRIEND. She is more like a non-enemy), this is how the conversation went:

Waitress: Welcome to On The Border! Can I start you two off with a drink?
Friend: Oh, I’m not sure. Will, you pick.
Me: Yeah….two Borderitas (Is that REALLY THE FUCKING NAME?!) with a shot of Grand Mariner should do it.
Waitress: Cool, my boyfriend LOVES those!

O_o

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?

Now if it was because I was with a female I will let that slide. We aren’t dating (Yeah, I’m sure her husband would kill me since we have been down since the Wu-Tang Clan was protecting their necks) but that could be misconstrued so I can understand that but it really isn’t in context and even though I am not against it, for some it could be inappropriate. Like when I went to see “White Christmas” last year. That was interesting seeing as how I AM NOT R-FUCKING-KELLY! It wasn’t like that but it was to be expected no matter how much it pissed us off. That’s life.

However, this happens all the time. I mean just at random. It has happened to me at (In the last two months):

1. Borders
2. Barnes & Nobel
3. Verizon Wireless Store
4. Hot Topic (Which means he was emo which is worthy of killing)
5. AI
6. Entertainmart
7. THE LIQUOR STORE! (I wants my soju, not your insight. Although the cucumber and soju advice was DY-NO-MITE!)

Now these are all random ass places and yet it is happening more often than not. Now I understand if situations may make them nervous and they blurt things out. Hell, I have been a victim of that as well (Ask any woman I have ever took out anywhere. I am kind of an uber-spazz) but I mean it is starting to hurt my feelings now. I mean do I just come off as that much of a douche? I mean I know I can come off as a condescending asshole (To which I say I have had some of the same friends for 10 years plus and none of them say I am condescending so the problem is with you, bitches. You bitches know who you are) but if you do then you are a dumb bitch that doesn’t get my humor or you are a dude that thinks I am smarty-art-nigga because I AM smarter than you and I say the exact same thing to you that Juelz Santana says: don’t watch me, watch TV.

Not sure what that means, but that is one helluva track. Anyway, long story short is knowing about your boyfriend is fine, but not when I want to know about the pros and cons of a Roth IRA. I don’t care if he has one, I am all about my money anyway.

Pissed Off Point #2: How Can Two Jews Raping Harrison Ford NOT Be Funny?

Is George Lucas Jewish? I think so….either way, I saw the season premiere of South Park on Wednesday and first off all I have to say is EPIC! The Cartman vs. the Chinese b-Story was kind of weak but let’s face it: if you liked “Indiana Jones & The Fucked Up Alien Bullshit Dome Piece” then you are in denial. You are blaming yourself for what happened but you didn’t ask for it. George Lucas and Steven Spielberg stole something from you. They violated you in your most personal of places: your childhood. Yes, I said it the day I went to see the movie in the theater (Although I was pretty sake boozed up for the first 10 minutes or so. Remember that, Hoag…because I kind of don’t) and I am saying it now after you have all seen the evidence in poorly animate form. All the people that saw Indiana Jones 4 had their childhoods raped. Yes, raped.

Now I used to think rape was funny. I laughed about Bro Rape just like all of you:

Or at least laughed if you knew funny. Now, rape isn’t as funny now. I loved Indiana Jones! He shot Arabs and melted Nazis! You don’t get any more bad ass than that! But we all sat back and let our childhood memories of one of the greatest action stars not named Jack Burton get cornholed by The Great Movie Sodomizers.” They were arrested on the show, but in the real world these men need to pay for their crimes! Rape is neither fair nor glamorous. It can be funny, but not when performed on an icon on a pinball machine. Before you say “Why was it okay for Jodie Foster but not for Harrison Ford” understand that Harrison Ford was ALSO president and has a Millineum Falcon in his garage (He got to keep that in the settlement) while Jodie Foster is an actress and an overrated one at that.

Well, enough for now. Chachi Video Awards Special Sunday Night (LATE Sunday night) so until then, stay tuned!

Chachi Out.

I REALLY Am Kind Of A Doormat. My Cat Shrink Was Right...

What is up, ya’ll! It is Friday and although my week (See: YEAR!) sucked it is all right because I am back for the peeps with a brand new listing of the biggest videos in the galaxy! Nay….the UBER-GALAXY. Here is the….

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown

We begin with the King of the South…. moving south.

20. T.I. – Whatever You Like (Last Week #17)
We begin with the King of the South who is the king of the Billboard charts! Number one album, bitches! Who says the king fell off?! I do because your video falls three spots this week. Get it together!
19. Big Bang – Number 1 (New Entry)
Hell yeah! Big Bang is BACK! After some solo albums the group is back and giving us an all Japanese album which means I know like….three more words than their Korean albums! Yet….it is going to be all in English. Even better for me! This video is kind of Pretty Ricky-ish but Pretty Ricky SUCKS while Big Bang does not. The end.
18. Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl (Last Week #15)
More K-Pop for your ass! Miss Hyori falls three big spots this week as we prepare for the Chachi Video Awards Nomination Special and she does have a few for this video. But how many?
17. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Remember (Last Week #20)
*Sigh* I am still broken up that HAMC has broken up. Word is that Soul’d Out has broken up, too! Diggy Mo is doing his solo thing (Check the new ending for Soul Eater. Pretty bad ass!) and this may be the worst year ever for me. At least I have this video.
16. Bennie K feat SOFFet – Music Traveler (Last Week #13)
Two new videos for Bennie K? Wow, too bad they are releasing ANOTHER BEST OF ALBUM. I mean you have a lot of hits but come on. I WANT NEW STUFF!
15. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #18)
Yeah….Kumi Koda is hot. Did you see the A-Nation performance? Yeah….Kumi Koda is DAMN HOT.
14. Young Jeezy feat Kanye West – Put On (Last Week #11, Three Weeks at #1)
New Kanye! Say what you will about his ego and his overall asshatery, the man can make a song like no other. Almost makes the vocoder tolerable. You listening, T-Pain?!
13. Yuna Ito – Miss You (Last Week #14)
Yeah, Miss Ito is moving up this week albeit just one spot. She knows I love her so it aint no thang. Want to hear something more peppy next time, though.
12. Maroon 5 – Goodnight, Goodnight (Last Week #10)
Maroon 5 falls from the Top Ten this week and I kind of have to ask the question: how come they weren’t everywhere with this album? I mean I liked it just as much as “Songs About Jane” and it didn’t have the annoying late 90’s alt rock feel to it. Yeah, I hated “Closing Time” I don’t care if it WAS closing time.
11. Wonder Girls - Nobody (Last Week #16, Biggest Mover)
Yeah, at some point I am going to go to jail for putting them on here. The Wonder Girls are moving up this week, this time a huge five spots. I am really digging the remix, especially the rap. Mmmm, if only Yubin was three or four years older. Damn you, father time!
10. Game feat. Lil Wayne – My Life (Last Week #7)
Looks like the year of Game is coming to an end as this video falls three spots. Can I just say that I really want to see him work with DJ Quik? You’re Black, he’s Black! Make it happen!
9. Alicia Keys - Superwoman (Last Week #12)
My baby boo is back! Well, number three of my eight baby boos but still. This is one of the few “grrl power” songs I can stand out there because….well it is Alicia Keys. Women don’t listen to this but they will listen to Katy Perry. What the hell, man?!
8. NERD feat Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pusha-T – Everybody Nose (Remix) (Last Week #6)
So can I just say that unless CRS gives me an album by the end of 2008, I am totally going to start punting puppies. I will do it. I did it until Usher gave me an album and I will do it to them. Save the puppies!
7. Hyori Lee – Hey Mr. Big! (Last Week #9)
The Princess is moving on up! Can I just say that seeing her live performances….I am a tad bit underwhelmed. I mean watching her compared to Boa (WHO HAS A NEW ENGLISH SINGLE! GET IT!) or even Wonder Girls makes her look hella boring. She is hella fine though, so it makes up for it. Yeah, I said it.
6. FLOW – WORLD END (Last Week #4)
FLOW falls two spots this week as we begin to get into the big time near the top. They have had a pretty good year but are usually overshadowed by other J-Rock groups (Aqua Timez, UVERworld, L’Arc~en~ciel, HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR) with higher profiles. Speaking of high profile, where in the hell is Orange Range?! Just wondering.
5. Fonzworth Bentley feat Andre 3000 & Kanye West – Everybody [Don’t Stop] (Last Week #2, Two Weeks at #1)
Fonzworth Bentley falls from the runner up spot this week as move along. Can he follow up the awesomeness of this video with another one? If it has Andre 3000 in it….yes. The man is my idol.
4. T.I. – What Up, What’s Happening (Last Week #8)
Could this be the year of TIP? Yes, Lil’ Wayne had the huge numbers but “Lollipop” got on everyone’s nerves aside from Tootsie and I can say TI is better at putting an album together. That and he OWNS Shawty Lo on this song. I mean….damn, son. Yo ass got thervved. We are down to three!
3. UVERworld – Koishikute (Last Week #5)
For the first time in over A YEAR, UVERworld is back in the Top Three! I have really liked their last three videos (Just Break The Limit, Gekidou and this one) and it is boding well for their next album.
2. John Legend feat Andre 3000 – Green Light (Last Week #1, One Week at #1)
After only one week at number one, John Legend and Andre Three Stacks fall back to the runner-up spot! I guess it is because a new video is (supposedly) on its way and I have been listening to this song forever and I played it out myself. Thems the breaks sometimes. Well, with John Legend at number two….we have a new number one!
1. Hearts Grow – Sora (Last Week #3, One Week at #1)
It is about time! First was Foxxi MisQ, then came Game, then Paramore and now Hearts Grow breaks the streak! They get their first number on video and in rather short order to boot! Well deserved because this song is playing for me non-stop and once I get my phone back (See Thursday’s post) this will be the new ringtone….since I LOST THEM ALL. Either way, congratulations!

Well, that is all for this week! Tune in next Friday to see if Hearts Grow can make it two weeks on top? Or will John Legend take back his throne? Or can UVERworld break the wall down and FINALLY return to the top? Tune in next week to find out!

Well, I am out. Kind of pissed, I pick up my phone today and search for new carriers tomorrow. Fuck Verizon in their stupid heads. Stay up, ya’ll.

Chachi Out

Fuck You, Fuck Your Network And FUCK YO COUCH, VERIZON!!!

What is up, people? I am back for the second straight day and all I can say is GO OBAMA! That is all. First off, I am going to have the Chachi Video Awards Nominee Special this Sunday. Before you start yer bitching it is already done but I have a busy ass day tomorrow and the Countdown is on Friday and Saturday I am probably going to drink myself into a coma because I hate my life but so do most of you so you can join me if you like. We can have a “Drink Ourselves Until We Can’t See Shapes Anymore” Pity Party! It will be great!

So a few months ago (Or days ago….it doesn’t matter. None of this matters, Fryman) I had a rant up about how stupid women were the new niggas. Well, while talking to a certain female who dispises everything about me in all way shapes and forms but we have to co-exist because…well if I kill her my best friend will be rather pissed at me I brought up that point (Although not as blatant) and she was surprisingly…..agreeable about it. Now when I have conversations or even “debates” (Which with women become arguments but that is another post altogether) with friends, especially women, my goal isn’t to “win” or be “right” as much as understand the other person in comparison to my view and see how I feel about it. So when I say that females are the new niggas I don’t say that because I am RIGHT I say it because of the observations I have made and the actions they commit it is TRUE. I think that after being my friend for 7 years now (Holy shit….she has lasted a lot longer than all my other friends for the most part) she finally understands that when I say something it is usually true. Rarely right, but I aint in my right mind….I’m crazy in the head.

Been a shitty ass day and it is about time to let it out because if I don’t, someone is going to get fucking hurt and hurt in a way that is going to required a search party to find all their fucking body parts. Yeah, I have anger issues.

FUCK VERIZON

Okay, every year or so I have a post about how much I hate Verizon. Every few months they fuck me over (Charging me for text messaging on my plan when the service wasn’t activated, Not implementing my corporate discount for five months, not telling me in any way shape or form that software has updated and looking at me like I should know that shit via osmosis) and yet I continue to go back to them, mainly because…..well, I don’t know why. Their network sucks (It will work in the middle of Kansas but not in my fucking house) and their service leaves a lot to be desired. Today was one of those moments where I realized that when I finally snap…they are getting it first. First off, my battery has not been holding a charge for about a month or so. Literally, it will work for seven minutes and then have a low battery when it SAYS it was fully charged. The phone will just shut off on general purpose and my favorite…it won’t ring. Like, at all. I will just look and have six text messages and five voicemails…from two days ago. Yeah, no shit. With all that suckery I take that bullshit because I have too much other shit going on (Like trying to avoid sucking dick for manga money behind Borders) to go in and raise hell. So today I stopped by a Verizon kiosk at Circuit City (Another place that will feel the wrath if I go all “Falling Down” on motherfuckers) to see about upgrading my phone and the rep (Who was nice but seemed to want to talk about her boyfriend the whole time which is funny because I wasn’t hitting on her as much as I wanted A MOTHERFUCKING PHONE!) stated that I could but I would have to pay full price for a phone. I asked when my trade in date was when I get a discount on a new phone and she said November. That’s next fucking month. About 39 or so days away from today, and I am unable to get a discount on a new phone to replace a phone that doesn’t work. That is shittier customer service than a female penitentiary. At least there, the rapes come with three hots and a cot. Cell phone companies overcharge you as often as they can and as long as your phone somewhat works and you get your Katy Perry or Plies ringtone/ringback you take the anal violation like Ashley Blue. Well, she gets PAID VERY WELL TO TAKE SODOMY. I pay $100+ a month (Yeah, I have a data package that I can’t use half the time because the Colorado Springs service sucks the ass) and I still take it in two holes every month…and pay a bill. So after some cordial discussion (I wasn’t in pure pissed off mode yet) she said that she has the LG XV9800 (The eNV or as I call it the “Clam Fucker”) and it was doing the same thing until she got a software upgrade. I asked if she could do it there and she said no because Circuit City is just a reseller of Verizon and doesn’t have the capability.

Now about this bullshit: if I go to a dentist that is an offshoot of a larger dentist, I don’t want him to tell me “Oh, I only work on incisors. Molar work needs to go to the main branch because I’m just a dentist reseller.” That is….just….fucking stupid.

Back to my story. So I go over to the local Verizon picture show and tell them my problem. This is where things get a bit….um….what the fuck-ish? So the guy takes my phone, takes the battery out and spins it in a circle and says “Oh, this battery is dead.” What the fuck, is this “The Cell Battery Whisperer?” So I take his word for it and buy a new battery. While I am doing that, someone else is looking up my software version and tells me I need an upgrade because the latest software for the phone is Version 4. I was on Version 1. Now I don’t know if I am supposed to proactively get software updates for my phone to KEEP IT WORKING but I was never told to so I didn’t. If it is that imperative that if I don’t get an upgrade that my phone becomes a mini-hydrogen bomb then I should be told that. Either what, it was what it was and I left it there to have the software upgraded while I did what I had to do.

I return two hours later to ask about my phone and I wait. And wait. For about 10 minutes….with no one in the store. I finally ask someone and they tell me that the software fried the phone. Yes, FRIED THE PHONE. It wouldn’t boot up at all. Now I wanted to question it but I am under the firm belief that you trust the experts. So I asked if they could give me a replacement but….they only had a display model. So they fried my phone and didn’t have any replacement there that meant I was either phoneless or stuck with a bright orange display model. I was about to freak but there was a child there and when I get mad the first thing I attack is at knee level so that was a bad idea. I asked if I could just get a replacement from a store in the Springs (This was in Aurora, BTW. East Denver for those not here) because it was closer to me and not in another fucking COUNTY but they said I could not because it goes against inventory or something. At this point, my head was dealing with the voice of the Wolven telling me to sacrifice the first person with the letter “B” in their name so I just accepted that since I had to go back up to Denver the next day anyway but then I realized something. The phone was orange…..my new battery is silver….WHAT THE FUCK?! Now I know the last thing I should be concerned about is the COLOR of my battery in comparison to my phone but come the fuck on! SHITFUCKCUNTMCCAINASSRAPE!

Okay, I am stuck with a mismatched phone that isn’t mine that I have to replace and has to have everything transferred back on (Oh, did I mention they almost shipped off my 4GB memory card with the bad phone? Customer service, my ass!) to make whole again? Do you know how long it took me to get all those ringtones on there?! How will I know if Copper is calling me if it doesn’t play the Danger Mouse theme?!


How will I know if it is Nicole if “Rebelde” doesn’t play?!

I won’t ever know who is calling me! I DON’T KNOW NUMBERS, I KNOW RINGTONES! In all seriousness, I would figure I would have better service than this. I mean I pay my bill on time and I rarely call for problems because I am rather savvy about wireless (I used to sell it and know about the network….no matter how shitty it is) and yet I get screwed over quite often. Now I know I pretty much let it happen and take the blame for that completely but I have been a Verizon customer since 1999. Before that, I had AirTouch but they got bought out. I have gone through 8 phones in my 10 years or so and you know how many failed? SEVEN. SEVEN PHONES HAVE FAILED! Now that is a manufacturer problem but my issue hasn’t been the phone, it has been the service to the problem. I have had three of those phones fail while IN THEIR CARE either trying to install software or fix other issues. Now one would say “Hey, they fix the problem so everything is fine like cherry wine” but why are these things always happening? I mean seriously, is this normal? It can’t be! Needless to say, I am sick of this shit.

So to go along with my stance on Blondies, Circuit City and Macaroni Grill I am officially boycotting Verizon Wireless. Once my contract is up, I am going with someone else. This is total bullshit and I am not going to take it….ANYMORE!!

At least until they say they are sorry and buy me some flowers. They still love me! Man…Copper was right. I AM a battered wife.

Well, that is all for now. Countdown tomorrow and I will try to update Saturday or something. Until then, stay up.

Chachi Out.

Bringin Back That Old New York Rap! Wait....I Don't Even LIKE New York!

What is up, people?! I am back on the scene with a pocket full of….lint. FUUUUUCK ME. But that’s the way life is if you want to get what you want sometimes. So another Hip Hop Honors has come and gone and there are a few artists that I am pissed off about not being inducted yet. I mean I am no hip hop connoisseur (Although I HAVE beaten Def Jam: Vendetta, Def Jam: Fight for New York AND Def Jam: Icon which makes me more old school than nickel water and mayonnaise sammiches) but I do know a thing or two about some of bringing back that old school rap. So today I bring to you a little bit of that gangsta shit. I give to you….

Chachi’s Hip Hop Honors 2009 Honorees!

Honoree #1: DJ Quik

First off, the fact that he is NOT in the Hip Hop Honors, albeit not a standard “hall of fame” is infuriating. When you think West Coast rap you SHOULD think of five people:

1. NWA (This includes Dr. Dre, Easy-E, Ice Cube and MC Ren)
2. Snoop Dogg
3. Too $hort
4. Cypress Hill
5. DJ Quik

Honestly, as far as I am concerned it isn’t even in that fucking order. DJ Quik is actually who introduced me to West Coast rap because I thought NWA…what’s that word….oh yeah. SUCKED. Seriously, I was all about De La Soul, Tribe Called Quest and Fresh Prince (More on him later. STOP HATIN!) back then and felt NWA lacked talent. Yeah, motherfucker I said it and I STILL HATE THEM. They were no Geto Boys. YEAH, I SAID THAT SHIT TOO! Record sales and controversy don’t equal being good but that is another rant for another time. DJ Quik never really had the mega-popularity of the other West Coast rappers (Although I own all his albums) mostly because he wasn’t rapping about ALL the gangsta ridiculousness. Now he did the gangsta rap thing but his love for Roger Troutman before everyone sampled his music and effectively raped his vocorders’ musical corpse (T-Pain & Kanye….I am looking at your Black asses) is really what drew me to his music. His style of old school smooth R&B was more of an East Coast style (See: Pete Rock & CL Smooth….more on them later) and yet he still dropped that lowrider, summertime jam music that I still roll with to this day. You TELL ME that “Summer Breeze” and the bomb music when driving on a summer evening with a straight face and I will face-fuck your cat. I’ll do it.

What really makes DJ Quik (IMHO) one of the Top Ten ever is his lyricism. He has been underrated for damn near 20 years as not just a West Coast rapper but a rapper in general. Remember the intro to “Rhythm-A-Lism” and how fucking AWESOME that was? He had the same laid back flow as other Cali rappers but he could rip it if need be which is something that we cannot say for other rappers out now. Also, can I just say that Quik’s Grooves are some of the best instrumentals EVER? Add all of that together and you have one of the most influential rappers and producers ever. Shame he isn’t in yet and a bigger shame that some people don’t know who his if. If you do, big ups and if you don’t BUY A FUCKING ALBUM RIGHT NOW.

Honoree #2: Kid ‘N’ Play

Go ahead, get your laugh on. I’ll wait, you ignorant motherfuckers. You done? Okay, now that you are done making a shit out of yourself do you realize that before Ice Cube, before John Singleton (On a major forum), before 50 Cent there was Kid ‘N’ Play making movies. Good movies at that. Well, House Party and House Party 2 were good (PAJAMA JAMMY JAM, BITCHES!) but I will admit that Class Act and House Party 3 left a lot to be desired….like being good. Not only did they make movies they had some really good albums and YES they were a bit happy and un-thug but think about it: what makes hip hop great is it’s variety. Kid ‘N’ Play gave us not only a different sound but they revolutionized fashion even though it was for the tacky. I mean, who DIDN’T have a high top fade? I mean I didn’t but that was because my hair would just lay down (I got that good hair, got some Indian in me). They had some classic songs and along with Salt N Pepa and EU (DOIN DA BUTT!) introduced “go-go” to hip hop, a movement that I wish would come back because that shit is dance-worthy. They were one of the first hip hop duos and really changed how rappers viewed making movies as part of their business ventures. They had to put up with a lot of shit over it and kind of paved the way for that 50 Cent movie (You know, King Kong. ZING!) but in the end they really did a lot for hip hop and gave us a lot of great songs and the GREATEST DANCE SEQUENCES OF ALL TIME!

Hell, House Party ALONE is worth the honor. Speaking of movies…

Honoree #3: The Last Dragon

They have honored movies before and with the death of Julius Curry (Sho-Nuff) earlier this year this movie would have been a great fit. Now first off, I am going to say this right here and now. There are a few movies that all Black people…male and female….have seen and if you haven’t they you ain’t BLACK!

1. Hollywood Shuffle (In my opinion, Robert Townsend’s best work. Hoecakes!)
2. The Mack (The scene with Richard Pryor and the dynamite in his mouth haunted me until I was 15)
3. Soul Man (Five words: Harvard, There Is No Substitute!)
4. I’m Gon Git You Sucka (Everybody needs theme music….)
5. The Last Dragon (WHO’S THE MASTER!)

If you are Black and you haven’t seen those movies, you are TEH SUCK! The Last Dragon had everything from action to comedy to romance to Vanity. Back when she was hot and freaky. The movie also had the greatest song ever in El Debarge’s “Rhythm of the Night” back when he and Kenny Loggins were battling for the most songs on a soundtrack (SHORT CIRCUIT, FOOL!). Hell, Sho’Nuff is one of the most quoted yet under-recognized characters of the 80’s! Yes, I put him up there with Lo Pan. YEAH, I SAID IT! Overall, this movie was one of the biggest movies in hip hop’s history even if people don’t want to admit it.

Honoree # 4: Pete Rock

Okay, now a lot of hip hop heads may say that he doesn’t have a big enough body of work to be able to achieve this honor. Guess what…you are a fuckwit. Pete Rock has been producing artists FOR YEARS and has given us some of the best beats that either you never heard or you fucking slept on. Sometimes, being consistent is better than being flashy (Pharrell, I am so looking at you) and Pete Rock has always given the world some awesome production. If you don’t consider “They Remince Over You (T.R.O.Y.)” one of the best songs ever then there is no hope for hip hop and no hope for the future. This is one of those honors that is going to be scoffed on by many (Why aint Ja Rule in there? WHERE’S JA?!) but at the end of the day, Pete Rock is an innovator and one of the best producers of all time. Just behind DJ Quik.

Honoree #5: Master P & The No Limit Soldiers

*Sigh* I REALLY didn’t want to do this. But even I had to admit….I still have those ugly ass Master P, Mystikal, Mia X and Silkk Da Shocker albums with the art that looks shooped. Say what you will about some Master P and odds are I will say the same. I know that he was lyrically as good as Rappin Ronnie. I know that his catchphrase was fucking annoying. And yet….we all know it and you can lie to yourself all you want you all said it. You know it….

UUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNGGGGGHHHHHH!!!! NA NA NA NA!!
None of us want to admit it but we were all bout it, bout it. We all miss our homies. We were all No Limit Soldiers and someone out there still has that dumb ass doll. Master P brought back the huge medallion that has become an object of niggardom and thuggery in the years since. The man had movies (Which all sucked), clothing (Which as 80% ugly as shit) and toys (Which surprisingly sucked, too) in a day and time when rappers were happy just being ignorant little shits that had no redeeming quality aside from the fact they could move 500,000 units. Master P was a businessman and entered into ventures that have shaped hip hop to this day. Remember how he had his group manage Ricky Williams into Miami? Remember how he marketed (Pimped?) his son as the next young rap star? Remember how he made us give a fuck who Mr. Magic and Kane & Abel were? The man was a genius and changed hip hop as we know it forever. For better or worse, but still. Na na na na!

Honoree #6: DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince/Fresh Prince of Bel Air/Will Smith

To all of you “hip hop purists”…..FUCK YOU AND STOP HATIN! Say what you will about Will Smith or even DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince the group….but you KNOW you were all about The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. You know it, I know it, your momma knows it and smooth skinned baby Jesus knows it. From the beginning with Parents Just Don’t Understand and Nightmare On My Street, Will Smith has been part of hip hop since the beginning. You can hate on Summertime all you fucking want to but that song was the mad notes and you know it. Oh, and all of you rappers acting (DMX, I am looking at you….while you are looking at crack. ZING!) now owe this man a debt of fucking gratitude. I remember all my friends calling Will Smith a sellout because he was acting instead of rapping and now all rappers are acting. Hell, if you are Rick Ross you are acting like a drug dealer and if you are Plies you are ACTING LIKE A FUCKING RAPPER. He had one of the greatest shows on TV that had the luxury of being like “Homeboys In Outerspace” but instead tackled all races issues (Racism, broken families, drugs) and still had time to make me laugh. Then there was the “Big Willie Style” era in which you know FUCKING WELL you were “Getting’ Jiggy With It” with the rest of us. We could have done without “Willenium” but everyone has their “In My Lifetime Vol I” so I can let that slide. In the end, I personally believe that Will Smith should have been inducted the second year but that’s just me. This busted logic that the only hip hop is hip hop where people aint smiling needs to stop. You should be thanking “hip-pop” artists for taking your shit and allowing artists like NWA, Wu-Tang Clan and Too $hort to even be on the radio. Think about THAT.

Well, those are MY nominees for 2009. And dammit, if DJ Quik isn’t in there, I am kidnapping Flavor Flav. Have Flavor of Love without him, VH1! I FUCKING DARE YOU! Until next time….THE CHACHI VIDEO AWARDS NOMINEE SPECIAL!! I hope to have it up Thursday and will announce the date of the show then as well. Stay up, peeps. And a hip hop you don’t stop!

Wow….DC Talk. That was special.

Chachi Out

The Year Of 3000!

What is up, people! After an outage by Comcast stopped me from posting this YESTERDAY (A-holes!) I am back on the scene with the Friday staple….just a day late. It is time for….

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!!

We start off with the end of a J-Rock era…..

20. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Remember (New Entry)

HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR IS BACK…..for the last time! This will be the final single and video from arguably one of the best new J-Rock bands to come along in a long time. The title is a fitting swan song and the video (Albeit hippiesque) brings everything full circle. Welcome back, HAMC. You will be missed.
19. Yui – Summer Song (Last Week #14, Plunge of the Week)
Looks like the Year of Yui has come to an end. Three number two videos is one of the best performances of the year despite the fact this video falls 5 huge spots this week. The announcement of the Chachi Video Awards nominees is Sunday so you better believe she will have a few nods!
18. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #20)
Kumi moves up a modest two spots this week as we move on. Well, it’s a lot more modest than her usual outfits…which are HAAAAAAWT!
17. T.I. – Whatever You Like (Last Week #13)
“Paper Trail” is out! Go pick it up now! I gotta grab my copy this weekend (My bad, Clifford, been looking for some good work so aint had time to support the King yet) and just know this: it is well worth it IMHO.
16. Wonder Girls - Nobody (Last Week #19)
The Wonder Girls are back! Can I just say that this song is a little bit too catchy for its own damn good? I mean seriously, this song is stuck in my head like that damn FreeCreditReport.com song. But a lot more awesome.
15. Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl (Last Week #12)

Miss Hyori is still hanging on with this one. She is definitely nominated for a few Chachi Awards this year because of this video is damn hot. Also, the album isn’t too shabby, either. 2008 is the year of K-Pop!
14. Yuna Ito – Miss You (Last Week #17)
Miss Yuna moves up three big spots this week in her return to the Countdown. She usually comes around every few months or so and steals my heart but you know what? That’s what my baby does.
13. Bennie K feat SOFFet – Music Traveler (Last Week #9)
After peaking just inside of the Top Ten, Bennie K falls four spots this week. This video really didn’t catch me and the song just really isn’t as good as “Monochrome” but few things are.
12. Alicia Keys - Superwoman (Last Week #15)

As we move toward the Top 10 we see arguably the most successful female artist of 2008. With two Top Ten videos including a number one video in January of this year, she is putting her name in there with Yui for the Queen of the Countdown.
11. Young Jeezy feat Kanye West – Put On (Last Week #8, Three Weeks at #1)
After dominating the Countdown for almost a month, Young Jeezy and Kanye fall from the Top 10 for the first time since this summer. Been a big year for Jeezy and surprisingly so. I have to say….WTF, JEEZY WAS KILLING IT IN 2008! Onto the Top 10!
10. Maroon 5 – Goodnight, Goodnight (Last Week #10)
Maroon 5 stands pat at number ten this week as we enter the upper half. Been a slow year for these guys aside from that annoying song with Rihanna but even still, it’s the Five. Love this band, peeps. Love this band.
9. Hyori Lee – Hey Mr. Big! (Last Week #11)
Well, The Princess is back in the Top 10! Needless to say, that didn’t take long. Also, can I say her dancing has stepped up a great deal since the “Dark Angel” days? She used to be like….well, Britney Spears and I never really thought she was the next Janet. I mean “Control” Janet not the Janet we see with the midget.
8. T.I. – What Up, What’s Happening (Last Week #16, Biggest Mover)

The King is back in the Top 10! TI moves up a HUGE eight spots this week with his newest video. This is a diss song that rates up there with the “Hit Em Up” crowd. Not that Shawty Lo is a viable opponent but you have to beat who is on your schedule as Lee Corso would say.
7. Game feat. Lil Wayne – My Life (Last Week #5)
As we move on up, we see Game & Lil Wayne fall two spots this week. This song just doesn’t do it for me anymore and Lil Wayne officially needs to sit the hell down for a while. I saw him in a Wachovia commercial yesterday. Sad.
6. NERD feat Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pusha-T – Everybody Nose (Remix) (Last Week #4)
Looks like the CRS album may or may not be out at some undisclosed time in the next seven years according to all three members. I hate you guys. Because of that, you fall from the Top Five. Don’t mess with me!
5. UVERworld – Koishikute (Last Week #7)

UVERworld is back in the Top Five! It has been over a year and a half since UVERworld was up this high but man…I loves me a good ballad.
4. FLOW – WORLD END (Last Week #2)
After peaking at number two last week, FLOW falls back two spots this week and out of the Top Three. Looks like rock is back in 2008 but it has been a tad overshadowed by the return of hip hop. Oh, HIP HOP HONORS ON MONDAY! DON’T MISS IT! And we are also down to three!
3. Hearts Grow – Sora (Last Week #6)

Hearts Grow is back! After a long hiatus this kick ass song is in the Top Three! Can I just say I love this song and although the video is just like their last three it is totally fricking sweet? I just did so there.
2. Fonzworth Bentley feat Andre 3000 & Kanye West – Everybody [Don’t Stop] (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)

After two weeks on top, Fonzworth Bentley and the crew fall from their throne! Andre 3000 looks to be having a huge year….without releasing a damn album. The dude doesn’t need to, though. I wonder how Fonzworth is going to follow this up. We are down to one, and it may be a bit familiar…
1. John Legend feat Andre 3000 – Green Light (Last Week #3, One Week at #1)

Yes, you know it! After over a year of being held back, John Legend is back at number one! This marks his fourth number one video, tying him with Kanye West (Although he only has one solo number one video) for the most number one videos ever with four. The Chachi Award nominees are up; you think he may take one home? You damn right! Congrats John and welcome back Three Stacks!

Well, that is all for this week! Can John Legend make it two straight weeks? Or will Fonzworth and Co take the top back? Or can Hearts Grow finally get their first number one video? Tune in next FRIDAY to find out!

The Chachi Video Award nominees will be announced tomorrow! Stay tuned to that, it will be all that plus some! Until then, stay up peeps!

Chachi Out

Let's Groove Tonight Like The Funk Bands Of Old! You Know The One's I'm Talking About!

What is up, people! It is a rather lazy day Sunday and all I got going is laundry and self regret. Usually at the same time. But what is done is done and all I can do is get drunk to make the voices go away. Soju, here I come! But before then, I have a huge beef with people and their non-dancing asses. Now don’t get me wrong, I am no Minwoo but come on. I mean we all remember the dumbfuckery that was “The Soulja Boy” and that got us nowhere, if just closer to doing minstrel shows for Blacks and many a dance related injury for Whites. Once again, Mexicans slept and Asians waited with a zen-like patience. Gotta offend everyone.

Now I rant about these every few months or so but seriously, when was the last dance that everyone could get up and do not called “The Cupid Shuffle?”:

As DJ UNK said, grandma can do it with her cane! Grandma can’t do the Soulja Boy, she’ll break a fucking hip! And I have to say, I was feeling the Fred Sanford. Anyway, it is time for my first in a series of as many until I feel like stopping posts about kicking it old school. So I bring to you the first….

Passion of Chachi Presents: The Decline of…..Dancing

Now the art of the dance has been used for several things. Whether it was to convey joy or whether it is to acquire a mate, dance serves many functions. Now for those that don’t think it is for acquiring a mate please see:” Getting your eagle” on for women because a woman with her legs open garners a lot more attention than a woman doing the “Walk It Out”:

Which is sad because a woman that can do that deserves lovin more than a woman that pops, drops and locks it. Also, see men and the “Make It Rain” which isn’t a DANCE but since dance has fallen to shit in the last few years….it kind of counts:

That and let’s face it, women flock to floating money like Jews flock to floating money. AAAAWWW, SNAP! That wasn’t cool. Okay, like Black men flock to overweight White women. Gotta offend everyone. Back to my point if there even happens to BE one. It seems that dancing has lost its way. Now we can all sit back and blame Soulja Boy but it isn’t ALL his fault. Now he is the nail in the coffin but dance has been dead and chilling out with rigor mortis for years. Here are the reasons why.

Reason 1: No Instructions Included….But They ARE FUCKING NEEDED.

Okay, can someone sit back and TELL me how to do the Soulja Boy? Seriously, there are more moves in that fucking dance as there are in a Knowshon Moreno touchdown run. And they aren’t even as cool. You see, dances now are a combination of even SHITTER dances to make one uber-shitty dance sensation. With all those dances there are a lot of movements and a very slim margin of error lest you end up bumping into someone or punching someone in the eye which they fucking deserve for doing that dance. Now don’t get me wrong, it caught my attention for a good five weeks or so….until I saw the dance. Then I broke it all down to learn it and told myself “Self, you look like MC Hammer on crack….but not in the good way. You see, the level of difficulty in the dance wasn’t high but the grasping of all the spastic, non-rhythmic and totally out of sync movements made it so that you had to have an instruction guide just to get past the first verse. You see, a dance has to be simple AND fun to do. I have to say that I didn’t have one iota of fun doing the Soulja Boy. NOT ONE, at least after I got over the novelty of learning it and realized I looked like the neighborhood spastic hepped up on jujubes and smack. Yes there were videos on the net and YouTube but going online to learn a dance is like not having a CD of your operating system when you buy a computer: BULLSHIT. Real dances tell you what to do DURING the song. See: THE HUMPTY DANCE!:

How do you DO the Humpty Dance? Well, allow Humpty Hump to tell you. I will translate for the non-gangsta macks:

First I limp to the side like my leg was broken
Shakin' and twitchin' kinda like I was smokin'
Crazy wack funky

(Translation: Get on the floor and jump around and flail your arms like Kermit the Frog if he was on fire and about to be raped by Gonzo. That was his thing….raping frogs….with his nose)

People say ya look like M.C. Hammer on crack, Humpty
That's all right 'cause my body's in motion
It's supposed to look like a fit or a convulsion
Anyone can play this game
This is my dance, y'all, Humpty Hump's my name
No two people will do it the same
Ya got it down when ya appear to be in pain

(Translation: You may not look like you are doing it right but if you look like you are doing it right your fool ass is doing it wrong)

Humpin', funkin', jumpin',
jig around, shakin' ya rump,
and when the dude a chump pump points a finger like a stump
tell him step off, I'm doin' the Hump.

(Translation: Don’t let anyone tell you that you are doing the dance wrong and if they do, smack that motherfucker up like you should a small child that talks too fucking much)

You see? A hell of a lot better than the Soulja Boy or the Shawty Lo dance (If you could really call that a dance. Looks more like some shit you would do on the fucking Wii Sports) just with a little bit of direction. Oh, and keeping it funky but that is what dance is all about.

Reason #2: Can’t Groove If You Aint Got No Room!

Now we have all been to the club. It has been about five months since I went to a club and actually DANCED lest you count NDK which I don’t because that is a different world. The club would be a lot cooler if they played “I’m Coming” by Rain but that is neither here nor there. That being said, a club’s main goal is not to make sure you have a good time. It is to make sure you get drunk and spend all your money whether it be on some woman to hopefully take her home and (Keep your fingers cross, pervert fucks!) sodomize her like an 11 year old boy in ancient Greece or on yourself so as a woman you can get drunk….and then be sodomized like an 11 year old boy in ancient Greece. Do the math ladies: DRINKING = SODOMY. The Greeks knew it, Kobe Bryant knew it, frat boys know it (Don’t take off my pants, bro!) and now you know it. Use this information wisely and cut back after two Long Islands. I’m just saying.

Back to the ranch, though. Who here has been to the Ritz in the CSP? Now how many of you could actually MOVE through The Ritz until last call due to how many people are crammed in that bitch? They are blatantly over maximum capacity and although it is more of a bar than a club, it is like that everywhere and almost every club I have been to in Denver, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Seattle, Salt Lake City (Mormons get down, too! Just very lamely) and Boise (Which has the most awesome gays EVAR! Seriously, you guys are cool). Your comfort and ability to have fun are put to the side for the ability for you to be involved in their quest for more money. You ever been at a club and people try to do the “Cupid Shuffle?” I can say right now, I have seen more niggas fight over getting bumped because there’re is no more room for the third left in the bridge or they get kicked in the back of the heel than anything else out there. And if there is one thing niggas LOVE to do, it is fuck up a good time for everyone else because someone “looked at them funny.” Yet, punching someone while doing the Young Joc dance (DUMBEST. DANCE. EVER) I feel is justified. But in this case, it isn’t their fault. No point in making club songs about dances if people can’t dance in the club.

Reason #3: Music Sucks

Now this is kind of a copout but think about it like this: if artists can’t make a song about jack shit in general, what makes me think they have the talent to make a song about a dance? The key figure of R&B would rather piss on you than make you dance. Oh, and don’t call “stepping” a dance because it is exactly that: stepping. It’s like calling DDR dancing….WHICH IT ISNT. Not exactly the guy I would rely on to create the next dance sensation. The key figures in rap are either too busy feeding their own ego (Kanye, I love you like no other but you really need to tone down the dipshittery), too busy being simian fucktard assholes (Fiddy, you mushmouthed cockmonger. You suck and I hope you die. That is all) or dead. And dead men don’t make dance hits. Except maybe Falco and shit:

Aaahhh, Bloodhound Gang. Definitely better than Blink 182. Anyway, music has fallen off to the point that there is no money in albums because the days of forcing us to buy a full album with 1 or 2 good songs is pretty much over. That and people are fucking stupid enough to let iTunes and record companies charge you 99 cents to $1.99 for a song so there is no need to make GOOD music that people want to dance to when you can make a good song that is great for niggas and dumb bitches to have as a ringtone (See: Fergie for the bitches and MIMS/Yung Joc for the niggas. Man, two Yung Joc references in one blog? I am off my game) and make 10 times the money. Face it, musicians don’t make music for the fans or the love of the art. They make it for the money. Aint nothing wrong with that but just be true to your fuckery.

With all that said, it saddens me to see the days of dancing are officially over. I have said it before and I will say it again: no one dances anymore. The club looks more like Caligula to a Polow Tha Don beat than a scene from House Party or even Less Than Zero (AWESOME MOVIE, BTW!). Seriously, the next time I get accosted on the dance floor I am suing everyone for harassment and getting my cash. The days of the Tootsie Roll are over. Which is sad because it replaced the butterfly….because it was old. So we are now stuck to dancing at anime conventions which is sad in a way but at the end of the day….I can do the Caramelledansen:

And THAT is fun. That is all for now, peeps. Odds are I will do another post sometime this week to bitch about how shitty my life is going. Until then, stay up and….
 
Dansa med oss
Klappa era händer
Gör som vi gör
Ta några steg åt vänster
Lyssna och lär
Missa inte chansen
Nu är vi här med
Caramelldansen!

Look it up, bitches.

Chachi Out

Laziness....You Never Appreciate It Until It's Gone.

What is up, peeps! It is my last day of freedom for a while so to celebrate, it is time for the Friday tradition!

Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!

We have three debut videos this week, all from artists who have had number one videos! Makes for a great fall and winter! Let’s get started with the return of my original baby boo!

20. Kumi Koda – Taboo (New Entry)

Koda Kumi - Taboo [MV]
Uploaded by INCENSE-KISS

MY BABY BOO IS BACK!! After over 18 months of lackluster (Read: BAD) videos Kumi Koda is finally back with some hawtness! While it is not up to the standard of “Juicy” which created a paradigm shift in how videos have been created ever since, it is still hawt as hell. Catchy little ditty, too.
19. Wonder Girls - Nobody (New Entry)

HELL YES! The greatest thing to come out of Korea since Bulldog Mansion (Buy “Funk”…RIGHT FUCKING NOW! Yes it is old but it is SO WORTH IT!) is back with an even BETTER video than before! Although JYP is there (He kind of annoys me) he doesn’t take away from one of the more original videos that ripped off a Beyonce led movie this year.
18. Kelun – CHU-BURA (Last Week #14, One Week at #1)
It looks like the run is over for Kelun. It was a huge summer for this band with a number one video and a Top Three video so it can’t be all that bad. And here is a spoiler…THREE CHACHI AWARD NOMINATIONS!
17. Yuna Ito – Miss You (Last Week #19)
Mmm….I missed you Miss Ito. How have you been? Oh, you have a new video and it moves up two spots this week? Very nice. Can….can I touch your hair?
16. T.I. – What Up, What’s Happening (New Entry)

Two months, three T.I. videos. Yes, the KING IS BACK! This video is so simple in its greatness as he pretty much tells those that hate to eat a dick….Monarch style. Also, I don’t know what a Shawty Lo is, but he just got SERVED.
15. Alicia Keys - Superwoman (Last Week #18)
Miss Alicia looks to end this year how she began it: at number one. She moves up another three spots this week as this makes her fourth video of 2008 to chart. She and Kanye are really battling for the artist of the year with one other person.
14. Yui – Summer Song (Last Week #10)
Yui happens to be that person With three number two videos this year she has come so close to being the best there ever was but man….no one remembers number two. I still love you!
13. T.I. – Whatever You Like (Last Week #16)
More Clifford! TI moves up another three spots this week as we look forward to eventual Album of the Year nominee “Paper Chase” on Tuesday. I have it (Don’t ask how) and dammit….it is awesome.
12. Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl (Last Week #6, Plunge of the Week)
Miss Hyori falls a HUGE six places this week and out of the Top 10! Very good year for her and it was nice to see her back….and not ripping off of Britney Spears. Although I liked “Get Ya” a hell of a lot more than “Do Something” but the law is the law.
11. Hyori Lee – Hey Mr. Big! (Last Week #13)

More Hyori! She is on the verge of having her second Top 10 video of the year and can I just say that….damn she is fine. That is all. We are moving on to the Top 10!
10. Maroon 5 – Goodnight, Goodnight (Last Week #11)
After over a year and a half Maroon 5 is back! They move up one spot this week with this interesting video with the beginning and the ending of the video playing on the opposite side. Very faboo.
9. Bennie K feat SOFFet – Music Traveler (Last Week #8)
NEW BENNIE K VIDEO! It is all animated, though. I need my Yuki and Cico in their all natural and soft flesh! So soft…I’m creepy!
8. Young Jeezy feat Kanye West – Put On (Last Week #4, Three Weeks at #1)
After holding down the Countdown for almost a month, Young Jeezy and Kanye fall four spots and out of the Top Five. New video from Jeezy but much like ”Go Getta” last year I am really not feeling the follow up. It may grow on me, though.
7. UVERworld – Koishikute (Last Week #9)

The World is slowly turning and moving up! They are just short of the Top Five which is a place they haven’t reached since the middle of last year. It has been a long stretch but they look to be back in the mix!
6. Hearts Grow – Sora (Last Week #12, Biggest Mover)

Huge moves by Hearts Grow! Last week they moved up five spots and they TOPPED THAT by vaulting up six spots this week! Is this video that good? Yes. Is this song that awesome? HELL YES! Can they get their first number one video on the third time? We will have to see!
5. Game feat. Lil Wayne – My Life (Last Week #7)
The Game and Lil Wayne move up two spots this week after stalling last week. Game is looking at being one of the big hip hop artists of 2008 after finally getting the monkey off his back of never having a number one video. Can he go two in a row?
4. NERD feat Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pusha-T – Everybody Nose (Remix) (Last Week #2)
After coming close to knocking off C.O.L.O.U.R.S. last week, the CRS posse falls two spots out of the Top Three. You know, I have been listening to this song for about three months now so by the time the video came out I was kind of played out of it. But still, kick ass video. We are down to three!
3. John Legend feat Andre 3000 – Green Light (Last Week #5)

Andre 3000 is running 2008! John Legend brings him along as he achieves his SIXTH Top Three video! “Evolver” should be out soon and dammit I am so waiting for that! Can John get his record fourth number one video after failing on his last two attempts? Well, he will have to take down two heavyweights to do so!
2. FLOW – WORLD END (Last Week #3)

FLOW is one step away from their second number one video! It has been over TWO YEARS since “Re:Member” went to number one and over a year since their last video charted but they are making up for all of that right now by moving up one to the runner up spot. With all of that, they fell short to the reigning champ!
1. Fonzworth Bentley feat Andre 3000 & Kanye West – Everybody [Don’t Stop] (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)

Don’t stop, baby! Fonzworth and Company hold it down on the chart for the second straight week! Yeah, I am just as shocked as you are but man this song is the mad notes! And nothing beats Andre 3000….nothing. Big ups to COLOURS!

That is all for now! Tune in next week to see if Fonzworth Bentley can make it three straight weeks at the top! Or will FLOW return to the top after two long years? Or will John Legend FINALLY get his record breaking 4th number one video? Tune in seven days from now to find out!

Well, I am out. Sushi tonight and then I will do my rant on the state of dancing on Sunday before I start work in hell on Monday. Yeah, I will be a pissed off panda until November. Until next time, stay up peeps.

Chachi Out!
