Time for some stuff. Or something...I'm kind of tired so a lot of this won't make teh sense.
Deep Thought #1: Indie Rock is Indie For A Fucking Reason
Because they don’t rock as hard as Abington Boys School. Just because everyone hasn’t heard of them doesn’t make them “edgy” or “out of the mainstream.” It means they aren’t fucking good enough for people to give a shit about them aside from you and other people who think they are fucking trendy by being “down” with an artist before they sold out. You know who else was “trendy?” Jack Johnson; now 75% of all the rapes of bros in America happen because of his music. Well, that and scotch but Jack Johnson makes the bro ready for bromance…in the butt. Indy rock sucks and no one cares that you think it is “cool” so eat a dick and leave it in your iPod. Jackass.
Deep Thought #2: Every Time You Come To A Complete Stop On The Highway, An Angel Is Sodomized
Or not, I really don’t care about angels but at least it made people pay attention. Seriously, the reason the highway was invented was to:
1. Avoid minority areas
2. Avoid stop lights
3. Avoid stop lights IN minority areas
So for what reason except for two dinosaurs fucking do people need to stop on a highway?! Instead of looking at an accident, be grateful you are still able to drive and aren’t injured and proceed to MOVE YOUR FUCKING ASS ALONG! Instead of slowing down because a police officer has one person pulled over, JUST SWITCH LANES RATHER THAN SLOWING DOWN! He aint the T-1000 and he aint going to chase you down! Quit being a mark ass bitch! Seriously, keep it moving or people should be allowed to move their foot up your ass for being a dipshit. Yeah, I am cussing a lot but this really doinks my doily.
Deep Thought #3: Parents Are Liars.
So at what point did it become acceptable to lie to your kids about any and everything imaginable? I mean parents lie to their kids about Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and being able to be whatever they want to be when they grow up. Unless you are woman. Yes, I went there. If you are a woman and you are broke then it is your own damn fault because a wise-man once said that “pussy sells” so if you aint marketing your vagina correctly then you have no one to blame but yourself. Anyway, I have sat back and watch parents feel bullshit about how babies are born and it always starts that “when a mommy and a daddy love each other very much” to which I say BULL-TO-THE-SHIT! Okay, all the women with kids raise your hand. Now keep your hand up if you are married to the father of that baby. Damn, that is a lot of hands down. You see, this isn’t a MAJOR thing but why can’t parents just say “babies are made from fucking.” That’s what my parents said and you know what? No kids. That is mostly because women WON’T have consensual sex with me without money involved but in the end, isn’t money involved in all sexual activity? Ladies, if you are fucking a broke dude then you have no financial analyst sills and you need to see a Morgan Stanley or something because you need to diversify your bonds…by dividing your legs. DAMN, I AM AWESOME! Seriously parents, stop lying to your kids and tell them that babies are made by zygotes and shit.
Deep Thought #4: FUCK MICROSOFT
So I will never…EVER SUPPORT APPLE. But I have to send my Zune back for a second fucking time (After the first one I got was DEAD OUT OF THE BOX which means this is the third time but I digress) for repair and all I have to say is that I may be getting an iPod after all this bullshit. I really don’t want to do that because I do not like Apple but my iPod was to be phased out by this piece of shit Zune and I have been able to use it a total of 7 time since I got it and I don’t believe those are GOOD DAMN ODDS. Even better was that Microsoft wouldn’t give me a refund even though it has a warranty on it (But I worked support and get why that can’t do it: they are asshole cuntswabbers) and even better they refused to send me a new or even DIFFERENT UNIT after having to go through a DOA unit and the same unit not working after being sent back once for the same problem. I literally had to call them asinine just to get to a manager and even then they just said “fixing it will fix the problem” to which I responded “ no it won’t, jerkass” and after almost an hour and a half of back and forth they said they would give me a different unit. Long story short, Microsoft can lick my balls.
Deep Thought #5: I LOVE SEATTLE!!!
New train of thought and process of happiness I got from a certain someone. I will say this: if I am not in Seattle by my birthday of this year, one of you is getting beaten into unconsciousness. The person will remain in suspense. Hopefully I will be there and it won’t matter. But if I am not, someone is catching a beating.
That is all for now. I will odds are be back on Friday because someone decided that training was a good idea to be had in January. Unless there is a gay bar involved, all training will be hella lame from this point out. Be back soon, ya’ll.

Racism: It's Offensive AND Delcious!
Yeah, Korea JUST MADE MY SHIT LIST:
You know, it is hella sad because AFRICANS DON'T HAVE FRIED CHICKEN! They have wildebeasts and rhinos and shit. Oh, and a whole lotta AIDS. You can't fry up AIDS and eat it! If you could, they would never be hungry again.
Honkeys have always been on my shitlist, though:
If I was China, I would break off a sandal in someones ass over that one. Besides, the only person that eats Jell-O is Bill Cosby with his punk ass. I mean, I make racist jokes (Every once in a while) but I do it for irony and humor. Except against the Turks because they just suck ass. Well, I am out of this bitch.

New Year, Same Chachi.
Okay people, it is about that time! I have put it off for NINE FUCKING DAYS and after many a piece of hate mail from my Blogger peeps I have finally completed it For the second third year in a row, it is time for the…
PASSION OF CHACHI YEAR END SPECTACULAR:
2008 Year In Review & 2009 Preview!
So as a few of you know (Copper especially…because he was fucking there) I had a really irritable 2008. I mean irritable enough to know why people snap and pull a Martin Lawrence. At the same time, 2008 wasn’t all bad…in the way like rape isn’t all bad. Yeah, I went there. Just so you know, 2009 is the year I don’t give a shit anymore because of the first question that was asked for this Omnibus….
What Was The Biggest Story of the Year?
If your dumb ass has to ask then you need to be deported. Two words: Barack Obama. Conservatives can be pissed off about the asinine assumption that we will delve into a socialist republic (Because…we have been doing a bang up job with what we are doing now. What is the foreclosure rate again? Jackasses) which liberal hippie douches can cream themselves on the fact that America is SO PROGRESSIVE BECAUSE WE ELECTED A BLACK PRESIDENT although that man had to be twice as smart as every White candidate ever just to get noticed and almost lost to someone whose biggest claim to fame is that she won’t suck her husband’s dick is kind of sad but at the end of the day it was a ground breaking event. You see, I don’t think people get it. I don’t like it when people say “you don’t know what it is like to be a woman!” (Which is special because women don’t know anything about anything. ZING!) or replace woman with an ethnic group, race, sexual orientation or furry because I don’t give a fuck for one and most importantly…no one knows what it is like to be ANYONE ELSE. My struggle as a Black man was different in Obama’s in some cases and in a lot of cases it was similar. At the end of the day his win wasn’t as much of a win for Black people (Shit, I ain’t got my “We Won!” trophy yet. Unlike when O.J. won when I got a nice wine and cheese basket. Yes, Blacks love wine and cheese. It’s like alcoholic Kool-Aid!) as it showed that some times…when the right Black man comes along…we can trick Whitey in to doing what we want. YEAH, I SAID IT!
I don’t think people get something. My White Republican friends all said that Blacks got Obama in office. Well, you are a bunch of fuckwits and you know it. It is YOUR PEOPLES FAULT! Understand something, honkey: the darkie vote has only effected one election ever. That election was the American Idol election between Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken:
The simple fact is that Obama did something that I don’t think any President in my generation has done aside from President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. He brought Americans together of all races, genders, age group and sexual orientation (Except furries) under one simple line of hope: yes we can. I wish Tupac was alive to see this because he was thankfully wrong:
America IS ready to have a Black President. I just wish it was Camacho first. Because shit’s all fucked up and shit. So everybody, let’s do what we can and let him do his job. At least until the crops die because we give them electrolytes. Sorry…I’m watching “Idiocracy” while I do this. SOUTH CAROLINA, REPRESENT!
What Would You Like To See End In 2009?
I am so glad you asked! Mostly because I was going to tell you any-damn-way but still. There are a few things that I am hoping just either stop or die out in 2009. Here are a few.
Number One: 50 Cent Needs To Shut The Fuck Up
Seriously. You know, he kind of stayed the hell out of my radar this year after getting his ass handed to him by Kanye West but right now he is coming off like a real douchebag McGee. I really didn’t have a problem with him until he had a little mini-rant at the end of the “Heartless Monster” track:
Did you hear his bullshit at the end? Really? Go out and beat up people different than you? REALLY?! What the fuck are you, some sort of Nigger Hitler?! Gee, people who dress and act differently are becoming the norm?! LET’S GET THEM AND TEACH THEM A LESSON! Why don’t you put on a white hood and start night ride, you worthless Black fuck. Seriously, shit like that makes me wish you really do die in a violent fashion. Sorry, I just don’t support people that believe in beating people for being different because YOU SUCK ASS AND HAVENT CHANGED ANYTHING YOU HAVE DONE. You change with the world, the world doesn’t change for you. Anyone who supports this cockmonger should be kicked in the face.
Number Two: Bret Favre Needs To Retire Or Die. Or Both, It Doesn’t Matter
Take your inbred ass back to Mississippi and stay the fuck off my TV. Seriously, you came back and you stunk up the joint. People can say that I don’t have the skills so I shouldn’t say anything and that is dead on. I don’t have the skills to be a quarterback and looking at the last five games, neither did he. People need to get off this guys dick and let other people have some screen time that actually make shit happen. Like Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco and Phillip Rivers. Future of the NFL right there, not some guy trying to stay in the limelight because he doesn’t want to go home for some reason. No Favre in 2009!
Number Three: The Teen Explosion…Again.
Okay, I like boy bands and Korean pop as much as the next weirdo. But the influx of sparsely talented teen singers, inane TV shows and shit-tastic movies and books really is beginning to piss me off. I mean Miley Cyrus was bad enough with her pedophile father (Yes, the dude that gave us “Achy Breaky Heart” likes the loli…and keeps it in the family) but then there were like seven more LESS TALENTED people that came after her and they are everywhere! Well, that is an exaggeration because I saw them during Christmas in the mall which skews the numbers but you get the idea. Combine that with everyone and their mother even CONSIDERING to put Twilight in the same BREATH AS THE DARK KNIGHT makes me want to kick a puppy dead in the nose. I mean, the teen groups of my day were actually…good. I mean Debbie Gibson wrote her own music! New Edition kept the tradition of Motown alive! Even New Kids On The Block gave us the marketing ability to make your own Band-Aids with your faces on them. I mean…okay that’s rather lame but you get what I am saying! You gonna tell me the Jonas Brothers are better than NKOTB? Or Backstreet Boys?! OR EVEN 2GETHER?!:
Now THAT is how you make a boy band, peeps! Besides, Dougie is almost twice my age so I can still make ABSquared! Don’t even get me started on what they try to pass off as “entertainment” on the TV side for teenagers. You know, I had Animaniacs, Freakazoid, The Tick and even Undergrads later on in my teens to watch and learn from. WHAT IN THE FUCK DO PEOPLE LEARN FROM GOSSIP GIRL?! Aside from how to be vapid, vindictive and shallow. I don’t think teenage females need courses on any of that. What is even worse it that teenage males either have bastardized anime (What the fuck is a Beyblade? Is that show even still on?!) or everyone’s favorite UFC/MMA. Okay, understand this: I have plenty of alpha male in me. I mean, I love the pussy:
But still, I am really sick of the influx of bros loving UFC. I mean, the concept of fighting when it isn’t a last resort automatically makes me think we are de-evolving as a people but I digress. The fact that teen boys have MMA as a PE class makes me say “Maybe we deserve to be wiped the fuck out” because we are no better than cavemen with sticks and rocks at that point. Sad.
What Would You Like To See Take Off In 2009?
Hmm…that is a tough one since I would rather what I like not make it into the mainstream because they will do with it what they did with anime: rape and bukkake it and leave it on the floor in a heap of tears and shame when they are done with it with the money on the dresser. Yet, I want to answer this question so here we go.
Number One: Like Hot Butter On The K-Popcorn!
Aaahhhh, humor. Without it, I would have killed all of you. So for a few years now I have been waiting for K-Pop to make the “invasion” like British bands, Latin groups and of course grunge and hair bands did before them. But it never materialized, mostly because Americans are kind of a bunch of fuckwits that don’t have a concept of what is good, which is why Scrubs bounces networks but Flavor of Love had multiple seasons. Either way, I am kind of excited to see K-Pop come to America to a certain extent. I don’t believe it is fair that they have to sing in English because…well, they all sound horrible. You gotta let it do what it do and if you do what you do well in your native tongue then do it that way. I mean Eat You Up from BoA was OKAY but you can tell that either she is part battery drained vocorder or English aint her strong point. Rain does a little better but still you can tell he sounds off. Besides, I prefer their songs in their native language anyway> Americans are slow and egocentric so it has to be their way if you want to play so I understand why. I am looking forward to some Se7en, Rain and BoA coming my way since pop here is TEH LAME. Which brings me to my next grand idea.
Number Two: J-Rawk YOUR FACE!
We all know that rock music has dropped off to the point that they are digging up bands to make comebacks in order to make it seem like rock is worth a shit anymore. AC/DC? Metallica? Guns “n” Roses? What is it, 1991?! I thought they were all fucking dead! New rock bands for the most part are either overrated (The Killers), unoriginal (Theory of a Deadman) or just not fucking talented (Every band I have heard since 2002 with a guitar) which is leaving a void that I think a well marketed J-Rock band could fill. Now Maximum The Hormone built a huge following after the success of Death Note and with Darker Than Black coming over to Adult Swim (I believe) this year, it is time for Sony to push the hell out of Abingdon Boys School and UVERworld. I mean I thought they would take off last year after the whole Bleach explosion but anime fans are still for the most part Narutards so you can’t win them all but HOWLING is the shit:
Add in the fact that D. Gray Man is supposedly coming soon (INNOCENT SORROW was just as bad ass as HOWLING but is like two years old) and ABS has a new single this year then I am saying it right now: ABINGDON BOYS SCHOOL OR UVERWORLD BETTER BE ON AMERICAN RADIO BY SEPTEMBER OR I PUNCH A KITTEN. I will do it.
So what does the New Year hold for us all? We as Americans have new President, a tough financial time ahead and a conversion to Digital TV to worry about. I kid, I kid. I hope everyone is ready because 2009 is going to rock your face! Or at least not be as sucky as 2008 was. MAN, LAST YEAR WAS ASS AND A HALF. Anyway, stay up ya’ll. I will be back soon. Happy New Year, fools!

Ladies Night: Drinks A Free For Them But They STILL Expect You To Pay.
It is about that time! It is Friday and it is time for the twenty biggest videos of the week given to you by the King himself! It's time for...
Chachi's Top 20 Video Countdown!
First it is time for Falling Out:
Kanye West – Love Lockdown (Peaked at #1 for Two Weeks)
Young Jeezy – Crazy World (Peaked at #12)
Two of the biggest stars of 2008 finally end their runs. But now we begin with a first timer!
20. Jesse McCartney – It’s Over (New Entry)
Okay, okay. It is a little known fact that I like Jesse McCartney’s music. Yeah, I said it. This video has been a favorite of mine and I knuckled up and put it on here. We have all been there, some of us more times than others. That and he is just SO DREAMY!
19. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #17)
My baby boo is still holding on! She falls two spots but stays on the Countdown as we literally countdown to her album release. ARE YOU READY?!
18. YA-KYIM respects SEAMO - SA IKOU! (New Entry)
Yes, more YA-KYIM! I actually saw this video before I saw the Kome Kome Club cover but you know…Kome Kome Club is CLASSIC. This video still has some kick ass dancing and even Seamo brings some goodness. Can’t believe I wanted to kick his ass at one point.
17. David Cook – Light On (Last Week #15)
David Cook seems to be falling off this week as he falls two more spots to number seventeen. Just saw the ad on FOX…American Idol is back for some reason. Man, I used to LIKE that show. WHAT WAS WRONG WITH ME?
16. Rain (Bi) – Rainism (Last Week #14)
Rain is still falling! I need something new from the bishie king himself soon or I may just have to wait for Se7en’s comeback.
15. NERD – Sooner or Later – Away (Last Week #18)
NERD moves on up this week as we move on. You know, I haven’t bought a NERD album since the first one and was underwhelmed but this one has been pretty good. Glad I picked it up.
14. UVERworld – Hakanaku mo Towa no Kanashi (Last Week #11)
The World is down and looks to be out this week as they fall a big three spots. Here is to patiently waiting for the album!
13. Game feat Ne-Yo – Camera Phone (Last Week #16)
Game moves up this week as he looks to continue 2008’s success this year. As for Ne-Yo, I believe this is the first time he has ever been on here. Doesn’t surprise me, a lot of what he does annoys me.
12. YUI – I’ll Be (Last Week #9)
YUI falls from the Top 10 for the first time since November as she once again failed to take the number one spot. Here is looking to next time, I guess…
11. Kanye West – Heartless (Last Week #13)
Kanye moves up two spots this week as he lies right outside the Top 10. I can honestly say there is no real way he can top 2008 this year but he will make the attempt. If he gets cracking on CRS we COULD BE IN BUSINESS!
10. T.I. feat Rihanna – Live Your Life (Last Week #6, Five Weeks at #1)[Plunge of the Week]
We are into the Top 10 and we begin with the second biggest video of 2008! T.I. will be gone for a minute for a little bid but this video still hangs on. I wonder if he will release one more before he goes in?
9. Joe Inoue – Closer (Last Week #12)
Wow, two Naruto videos in the Top 10?! WHO KNEW?! Well, Joe Inoue moves into the upper half on their first time out and look to maybe hang with the professionals. Can they?
8. Halcali – LONG KISS GOODBYE (Last Week #4)
Halcali falls another four spots this week as they fail again to take the top rung. They come by so sparingly too. It must be what it is like to have grandchildren.
7. RSP with DA BUBBLE GUM BROTHERS – LA.LA.LA LOVE SONG (Last Week #8)
RSP makes a small move up to number seven this week after rocketing up the chart over the last few weeks. Can I just say that this is the most genius fucking song EVER? EVER?! CLASSIC!
6. YA-KYIM respects KOME KOME CLUB – Kimi Ga Iru Dake De (Last Week #10, Biggest Mover)
For the second straight week, YA-KYIM moves up the most spots! The jump up four big ones and just outside of the Top Five once again! Now THIS is how you remake a song, people. TAKE FRICKING NOTES!
5. Aqua Timez - Velonica (Last Week # 7)
We start the Top Five with a former champ in Aqua Timez! It has been about 16 months since they have been this high and it is good to see them back. AND THE SINGLE COMES OUT NEXT WEEK, PEEPS! PICK IT UP!
4. Paramore – Decode (Last Week #3)
After making it to the Top Three last week, Paramore falls a spot today as the fact it is involved with Twilight finally catches up with it. Sorry…but I hate that fricking movie. We are down to three!
3. Nana Mizuki – TRICKSTER (Last Week #5)
Nana Mizuki is near the peak! She moves up two spots to number three this week in her first foray on the Countdown and much like a NaNa before her, she is making a HUGE SPLASH. Can she keep this going?
2. Ikimonogakari – Kimagure Romanteikku (Last Week #2)
For the second straight week, Ikimonogakari is holding the silver medal! That isn’t a bad thing but you know they want the top spot! Well, to get it next week, they have to knock off the reigning queen…
1. BoA – Eat You Up [Korean Version] (Last Week #1, Four Weeks at #1)
BoA has done it once again! For a full month, she has dominated the Countdown after knocking off T.I. and Rihanna. Pretty impressive run for the Queen of K-Pop! Hyori Lee may have something to say about that, but she aint here right now. GIMME MORE BOA NOW!
That is all for this Friday! Tune in next week to see if BoA can make it a huge FIVE weeks in a row at the top! Or will Ikimonogakari FINALLY take over the top spot? Or will Nana Mizuki pull one of the biggest upsets of all time and trump them both? See you in seven to find out!
Well, I am out for now. I will be back on Sunday. Until then, stay up peeps.
Chachi Out
Chachi's Top 20 Video Countdown!
First it is time for Falling Out:
Kanye West – Love Lockdown (Peaked at #1 for Two Weeks)
Young Jeezy – Crazy World (Peaked at #12)
Two of the biggest stars of 2008 finally end their runs. But now we begin with a first timer!
20. Jesse McCartney – It’s Over (New Entry)
Okay, okay. It is a little known fact that I like Jesse McCartney’s music. Yeah, I said it. This video has been a favorite of mine and I knuckled up and put it on here. We have all been there, some of us more times than others. That and he is just SO DREAMY!
19. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #17)
My baby boo is still holding on! She falls two spots but stays on the Countdown as we literally countdown to her album release. ARE YOU READY?!
18. YA-KYIM respects SEAMO - SA IKOU! (New Entry)
Yes, more YA-KYIM! I actually saw this video before I saw the Kome Kome Club cover but you know…Kome Kome Club is CLASSIC. This video still has some kick ass dancing and even Seamo brings some goodness. Can’t believe I wanted to kick his ass at one point.
17. David Cook – Light On (Last Week #15)
David Cook seems to be falling off this week as he falls two more spots to number seventeen. Just saw the ad on FOX…American Idol is back for some reason. Man, I used to LIKE that show. WHAT WAS WRONG WITH ME?
16. Rain (Bi) – Rainism (Last Week #14)
Rain is still falling! I need something new from the bishie king himself soon or I may just have to wait for Se7en’s comeback.
15. NERD – Sooner or Later – Away (Last Week #18)
NERD moves on up this week as we move on. You know, I haven’t bought a NERD album since the first one and was underwhelmed but this one has been pretty good. Glad I picked it up.
14. UVERworld – Hakanaku mo Towa no Kanashi (Last Week #11)
The World is down and looks to be out this week as they fall a big three spots. Here is to patiently waiting for the album!
13. Game feat Ne-Yo – Camera Phone (Last Week #16)
Game moves up this week as he looks to continue 2008’s success this year. As for Ne-Yo, I believe this is the first time he has ever been on here. Doesn’t surprise me, a lot of what he does annoys me.
12. YUI – I’ll Be (Last Week #9)
YUI falls from the Top 10 for the first time since November as she once again failed to take the number one spot. Here is looking to next time, I guess…
11. Kanye West – Heartless (Last Week #13)
Kanye moves up two spots this week as he lies right outside the Top 10. I can honestly say there is no real way he can top 2008 this year but he will make the attempt. If he gets cracking on CRS we COULD BE IN BUSINESS!
10. T.I. feat Rihanna – Live Your Life (Last Week #6, Five Weeks at #1)[Plunge of the Week]
We are into the Top 10 and we begin with the second biggest video of 2008! T.I. will be gone for a minute for a little bid but this video still hangs on. I wonder if he will release one more before he goes in?
9. Joe Inoue – Closer (Last Week #12)
Wow, two Naruto videos in the Top 10?! WHO KNEW?! Well, Joe Inoue moves into the upper half on their first time out and look to maybe hang with the professionals. Can they?
8. Halcali – LONG KISS GOODBYE (Last Week #4)
Halcali falls another four spots this week as they fail again to take the top rung. They come by so sparingly too. It must be what it is like to have grandchildren.

Thinking: It Worked For Those Snooty Greeks
What is up, peeps?! I was hella tired yesterday so I took a small break from posting but I am back with an update! You know you missed me…and I missed you too, baby. Well, now it is time for…
Chachi’s Deep Thoughts!
Deep Thought #1: If You Replace “Short” With “Black” in Randy Newman’s “Short People”…it is really no longer as funny:
Think about it. I mean, short people really DO have no reason to live.
Deep Thought #2: Ladies, You Are Only As Used Up As You Feel
So a few months ago on a post (Or it may have just been a discussion with a female friend of mine, but I thought I had it up as a rant) I talked about women and how some of them (Read: SOME OF THEM. Shut your fool mouths) fuck anything that moves up until they hit around 30 and then realize that they have to either settle down with someone that doesn’t care that she was rode like the Quad City DJ’s (DIG THE 90’S REFERENCE!) in an Atlanta club or continue to fuck their way to either stardom or a paid electric bill. I am one that says you gotta be you no matter who you are so if you are cool with that I am not going to judge. However, in this discussion she got hella pissed off because she felt I was talking about her (To which I just had to respond that she is 24 and doing this which makes her ahead of the game but I digress) and I sit back and I wonder here: is it really that big of a deal that you have a torrid past as a woman? Quite simply, who gives a fuck?
Suprisingly other women. Which I find SPECIAL because only in the world of womandom can a friend be your best bud in the morning and a trollopwhorebitchslut by lunch. I mean I have seen real-time women talk about other women that had sex with a guy a whore…when they fucked the same guy. You see, that is the logic that keeps who you have fucked an issue. I think men have a real simple definition of what makes a woman of so ill repute that she can never be dated or married:
1. Paris Hilton – Nothing personal, I just don’t think that men want to fuck a walking, talking insect.
2. Madonna – Yeah….no. Her vagina is like the Galgamek vagina. And it casts Ultima and Death. AT THE SAME TIME. Yes, her vagina is Hojo from FFVII.
3. Mary Magdalene – Once you fuck Jesus, there is no going anywhere else for your Jew wang. I mean, I can’t have some woman calling out another man’s name in bed! Let ALONE THE KING OF THE HEBREWS!
After this, unless you have decided it was a good idea to lay it down on Magic Johnson, you are not a whore no matter what you have done. I know women, they have done some fucked up and repugnant shit. So have men, but you never judge them for fucking that toothless stripper in Baton Rouge in the ass. Which you should but it doesn’t matter as long as you love them. Or they have money, which is a very legitimate alternative to love. It is science.
Deep Thought #3: Notoriously….Overrated?
Yes, I am saying it right here and right now. Notorious BIG is NOT THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Hell, he wasn’t even the best rapper in 1997. The fact he has a movie based on his life is fine because even MC Hammer had a bio-pic. I guarantee that it was better than Notorious is going to be. I mean let’s face it: he had two albums. TWO ALBUMS. You going to call Kurt Warner one of the best quarterbacks of all time for two MVP’s and two Super Bowl appearances? Fuck no. That is how I feel about Biggie. Yes he was good but to act like the man invented rap when it was obviously Rudy Ray Moore and Gil Scott Herron is just Black people being Black people. There, I said it. Hell, I can name several rappers better than Christopher “I Robbed Bill Cosby of His Sweaters And Pudding!” Wallace:
1. 2Pac (WELL DUH! The greatest of all time, fuck the world if they can’t adjust)
2. Eminem
3. Common
4. Andre 3000
5. Kanye West (Say what you will, Biggie was a product of a lot of production. KANYE IS PRODUCTION)
6. Jay-Z (Ugh…but it is true)
7. Talib Kweli
8. Snoop Dogg (You KNOW you was down with “Snoop’s Upside Yo Head!”)
9. SNOOP SNOOPY, SNOOPY!
10. Rappin 4-Tay
11. Johnny Storm
12. I FLAME ON!!
Now those are just SOME rappers that are better than Biggie. I didn’t even toss in that guy from 69 Boyz! In all seriousness, I am really just sick of people swearing up and down of the greatness of the Notorious BIG when he was good, not great. I mean, I don’t think you may have known this due to the massive orgasm of rap fans over his “legacy” but…Life After Death kind of sucked. By kind of sucked I mean did suck. I tell you it was nowhere near the classic label people seem to be putting on it I tell you THAT FOR DAMN SURE. Biggie was good but he was not the greatest. It is kind of like the whole Michael Jackson and the King of Pop ridiculousness. If you say it long enough, people will believe it.
That is all for now. Countdown on Friday and I will work on the Omnibus this weekend. Until then, stay up peeps.

Dating: In Old Country, Rape After Date Is Customary!
Okay, a quick update because I am kind of in the mood and dreading going to work tomorrow. Seeing as how I have to be up at 5am to get there...I am having some soul searching time. With that, you get a new post! Kind of, I posted this in 2006 but I thought it was rather funny. It was after I had my first official date in about six months or so (Give or take that time I was dating someone and didnt know it because I was dense) and she kind of made it into an event when it was really just dinner, wine, a play and hanging out. Which I guess in the Constitution is a date but I didnt know that. So, here is a short redo about a little thing we all like but are never really ready for.
DATING
Now I will be the first to say it has been a HELLA long time since I have had a date. I’m not going to go into numbers, but let’s just say that I never it has been a while and I never want to see the girl I took out again. What a biggity-bitch. Anyway, what is it with women and dates? As a man, I think of dates as a simple way to get to know a person. No more, no less. Women seem to make dating out to be some big deal like it determines their future even though odds are it is going to go bad because that is all I ever hear. It really isn’t all that complicated. Especially for dudes, who a lot of times see a date as an alternative for getting a prostitute because they pay for tang either way. Listen, as Huey said you aren’t paying her, you are paying the restaurant.
Keep in mind my experience is limited and my attitude about and during a date may be the reason for the lack of them. When you look at it, you as a woman really dont have to DO anything. It is kind of like The Eagles in the playoffs: you are playing with house money. Or in this case, HIS MONEY. Let's put it all into perspective shall we? Ladies, on a date you get:
1. A free car ride. Can be great if the guy has a nice car. Or bad if he has a Honda Civic. Despite that, your ass aint paying for gas and even though the prices are going down it is a matter or priniciple. I for one dont mind driving but I DO MIND when a woman critiques my choice in music or my anime flair on my rear view. Understand something: Fergie sucks and she will not be played in my car no matter how much you like her. Personal expereince...I'm sorry.
2. Free Entertainment. What would a date be without a movie, play or event of some sort? If a lady decided to take me to the movies or to a play I would be all ‘hells yeah’ about it. Women seem to not have the liking for the theatre or the symphony like I do because well, they have all told me on general purpose they dont like it. Which means that the arts are frequented by old women and gay men. Oddly enough, those are the two groups that talk to me the most so it is all beginning to FUCKING MAKES SENSE! Sorry, breakthrough...
3. Free Food. Not only do you get free food, it is usually high quality food. Any man that takes you on a date to a fast food restaurant is straight PIMP because I don’t have the balls to do that. However, if you are okay with it you are dumb as fuck. I’m a sit down restaurant kind of guy when it comes to conversation anyway. This also comes to be a problem because women dont like to...what's that word...think. Women never want to make the decision about where to go on a date mostly because it is a MAN'S time to show you how he will treat YOU. Dates are like mini-weddings for women, except she isn't EXPECTED to give it up at the end of the night. More on that later.
4. Good conversation. This is a double edged sword in my opinion because usually I am told that I talk down to women, which is false. I can talk over the heads of some people but that is normal. Ladies, if a date with a man revolves around his work and you listening it is your own fucking fault. There is nothing better than a dynamic when conversing. One person talking for the whole time while the other listens SUCKS. Oh, and no matter what previous boyfriends have said, it isnt cool to talk about how much you dont like the way someone is dressed. I dont give a fuck and neither should you. This part is what you make of it.
5. No Strings Attached. Now THIS varies by the man. I for one don’t believe a woman owes me jack shit after a date because that is fucking stupid. When I go out with Zach or Nolan or Rick and I pay, I don’t get a 12-pack of Nati Ice and some Axe Body Spray (Inside joke for those that have seen the Bro Rape video) for the rough night ahead. Long story short, a date is a meet and greet to the point it is almost like an interview. Do you fuck the interviewer because they said you did a great job? If you do...damn you nasty.
So if I go out with a woman just on general purpose (lunch or dinner or whatever), not even a date and I pay I expect nothing. Any man that does is kind of pathetic. I’m just saying, money doesn’t grow on trees but have some common sense. Just because you take her out doesn’t mean she has to put out. Oh, and women; if you DO put out because he take you out then you are stupid as all hell. You are the reason that there needs to be a bailout on the pussy because it's stock is dropping like Chrysler. There is a fine line between taking advantage and just common courtesy. Remember that and you will have a good time without feeling like you owe someone something.
Well, I am out for now. I will be back at some point this week for another update. I just had to repost this after a rather comical conversation a few minutes ago and she didnt understand the original post. I hope you understand now. You can keep your clothes on and we can still have a good time, girl!
I would prefer NOT...but that's what the cherry wine is for! IT'S A CELEBRATION! Stay up, ya'll.

Okay, I Am Using My Reflective Blog Card Now. I Promise Cursing And Jesus Jokes Next Post!
What's up, peeps? It is a cold ass Sunday night and I am still working on the Omnibus for the New Year. I will have it up by next Sunday night. This weekend I have just been bummed. Shitty weather, the Falcons lost and I have come to the realization that I havent really accomplished much at the old age of 28. Sure, I hit that Combo Breaker that one time in Killer Instinct 2 but as bad ass as that was, not much else has been done by me. It is of my own accord, mind you but not much has been accomplished nonetheless.
I never wanted to be that person that believed in the Johnny Paycheck idea of "you work sixteen hours and what do you get?" theory but at the same time it seems that is what I have put myself in. Sure in some jobs I had a lot of fun with Copper (Many a time. Like I said, dude. I am David Lee Roth to The Pack's Van Halen) and The Q was one job I surely miss but at the same time...I didn't wake up one day and say "Hot damn it, I want to do sales! That will get me mad bitches!" As we all know, bitches love money no matter how you get it. It is why they date drug dealers and take several years of abuse because they have a roof over thair head and cable. Sounds like she would be a fucking dumbass but in this economy I completely understand it now.
I jest on that but at the same time I am really vexxed about a lot of shit. One of my New Year's Resolution's was to cut back on my drinking and I have already done that (One Vesper?! What am I, a pussy?!) but what exactly will that accomplish? People always say that they want to quit smoking or quit drinking for their health but at the same fucking time you could die from a bear rape and people wouldnt care if you were a chain smoker or an alcoholic. Death dont care if you like the soju. Death only cares if youa re willing to give it the opportunity to fuck your shit up.
I guess I am saying it is time to do what makes you happy. It hit me the other day when I was talking to a total stranger at the karaoke bar when people were talking about resolutions and he flat out said that he won't do them because quite simply:
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?
Think about it. With perfection being a flawed concept at it's core, why do people strive for it? How can you constantly work for your "happiness" when you have no idea who you are? If you dont know who you are or even what you want that will create the perfect you...how can you even be happy? How can you even TRY to be a perfect Christian if you have no idea the basic groundworkings of the words? How can you be the perfect husband or wife to your spouse or parent to your children if not only were YOUR PARENTS NOT PERFECT BUT YOU ARENT EVEN A GOOD ENOUGH YOU TO BE HAPPY WITH WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE?!?! IS THIS SINKING IN?!
Yeah, I had a good old fashioned gut check a few days ago. You see, I always knew that reaching for perfection should never be the goal but attempting to complete what makes you happy before attempting anything else. But man, I put that shit to the side for the logical aspect of paying bills and going to work like a good little cog. It got me to where I am at now which is a lot better off then I thought I would be after some of the dumb shit I have done but even still, I am no vampire hunting rock star ninja pirate. Which is what I really want to be but I know that will never happen because ninjas hate rock. It's a conundrum.
I want to close this with a weird ass story. So it was last year after I had an interview for a company that will remain nameless that flew me out for a round of interviews. If you know me, it's the one where they didn't know that my Anglo sounding name belonged to a Negro and long shoty short when I got home I already had an email saying I didnt get the job from one side and a heart-felt apology from the hiring manager about what we were under the assuption was a pure lock. Long story short, after I found that out I went to a rousing game of "Three Man" at Copper's when I decided that whiskey, soju, PBR and then some sake and Kirin at Ichiban's with Zach was a good idea. Which it was, until I went home a laid down after the debacle. When I went to bed, Tupac:Resurrection was on (Which is one of my favorite movies of all time because the words of Tupac Shakur are the epitome of duality which in my opinion is the foundation of the human being) and as I watched it I drank some more soju (Yes, back then I had a stash) and finally just passed out. Then I had a dream where I was sitting on the deck out back looking out and nothing was there. Nothing. And I was just staring, in the same suit I had my interview in. At that point I just sat there when Tupac walked next to me. Yes, THAT Tupac. Then, one of the most vivid and downright ODD dialogs I ever had in a dream occured:
Tupac: What are you looking at?
Me: Nothing. Nothing is there.
Tupac: Only you can change that, you know.
(Awkward silence. I look back and the backyard and all the other stuff is there. I turn around and he is gone)
Me: Oooooooookkaay. I think I am dreaming.
Tupac's Voice: Life is hard. You will keep getting knocked down. You know why?
Me: ....uh....because I am a dumbass?
(Awkard silence)
Tupac's Voice: No....because getting knocked down shows you are a trying. If you never try, you never get knocked down because you never fight.
Me: That's deep, nigga.
Tupac's Voice: Shut up. Remember that. It aint about getting knocked down. It aint even about getting back up. It is about what you do when you get up. Because just getting up is part of your instinct...learning is how you grow.
Me: .....Damn, nigga. THAT'S DEEP.
Tupac's Voice: NIGGA SHUT UP! You are dreaming right now. Don't forget what I told you. No body ever learns by giving up.
(At this point, Talib Kweli's "The Blast" begins to play)
Me: Wow....thanks...
Tupac's Voice: Now turn that fucking TV off, nigga.......
I then wake up....and Talib Kweli's "The Blast" is playing on VH1 Soul rather fucking loudly. I am sitting up (Still in my interview clothes, mind you) in front of my computer and guess what is in Windows Media Player? Tupac:Resurrection. So as I was typing this, I got sick of ESPN (No one cares about the greatest game ever played, assholes. I will ruin the ending for you: Giants in overtime...jackass) so I turned the channel to VH1 Soul. Guess what was on? Tupac: Resurrection. Yeah, cosmic like a motherfucker. Oh, and guess what I am about to play? Some Talib Kweli:
Sometimes, life isnt priceless and it isnt a game. Sometimes...life is just life. Quite simply, that is all life can be. All you can do is live and learn as you do it. MESSAGE!!!!!!
Live, Laugh, Learn & Love
(KICKING IT OLD SCHOOL! Don't worry, I will be back to ranting next time. I promise!)
I never wanted to be that person that believed in the Johnny Paycheck idea of "you work sixteen hours and what do you get?" theory but at the same time it seems that is what I have put myself in. Sure in some jobs I had a lot of fun with Copper (Many a time. Like I said, dude. I am David Lee Roth to The Pack's Van Halen) and The Q was one job I surely miss but at the same time...I didn't wake up one day and say "Hot damn it, I want to do sales! That will get me mad bitches!" As we all know, bitches love money no matter how you get it. It is why they date drug dealers and take several years of abuse because they have a roof over thair head and cable. Sounds like she would be a fucking dumbass but in this economy I completely understand it now.
I jest on that but at the same time I am really vexxed about a lot of shit. One of my New Year's Resolution's was to cut back on my drinking and I have already done that (One Vesper?! What am I, a pussy?!) but what exactly will that accomplish?

New Year, Same BoA...
Well, it is about that time, peeps! It is a new year and hopefully we are set up for better times! With a new Friday comes a new Countdown as well! So let’s get this bad boy started!
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
Before we get started with the first Countdown of 2009, let’s take a look at the videos no longer with us in Falling Out:
Wonder Girls - Nobody (Peaked at #1 for One Week)
It was a great 2008 for the Wonder Girls with two number one videos. Let’s hope 2009 is just as good! Well, here we go!
20. Kanye West – Love Lockdown (Last Week #17, Two Weeks at #1)
We begin the first Countdown of 2009 with the man that arguably dominated 2008! Love Lockdown looks to be spending it’s last week on the chart after pulling down the number one spot last year. After a controversy filled 2008, what is in store for the new year for Kanye? All I can say is that it better involve CRS.
19. Young Jeezy – Crazy World (Last Week #15)
Another artist that had a huge 2008 is beginning 2009 on a down note. Young Jeezy hit the top twice but this video stalled out before even making it to the Top 10. He has two new videos so we will see where that leads us.
18. NERD – Sooner or Later (New Entry)
NERD FINALLY follows up Everybody Knows! This song caught my attention a while back and the video is…well, ironic to say the least. Also, Pharrell’s voice isn’t as annoying as it can be when he is rapping. Now he CAN NOT SING, but he doesn’t sound horrible. Catchy little ditty, by the way.
17. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #12, Plunge of the Week)
My baby boo falls five big spots this week! Her album should be out any day now and you know it is a front runner for the 2009 Chachi Music Awards. But until then, we just have to live with some Taboo.
16. Game feat Ne-Yo – Camera Phone (Last Week #18)
Game and Ne-Yo move up a modest two spots this week. I am kind of curious with the West Coast rap scene because…well, there IS NO WEST COAST RAP SCENE. Man, I miss the West.
15. David Cook – Light On (Last Week #13)
David Cook falls two spots this week as it looks like he may have stalled out. Does anyone even know when the new season of American Idol even starts? It has really fallen on hard times I tell you what.
14. Rain (Bi) – Rainism (Last Week #10)
Looks like Rain is clearing up as he falls from the Top 10 for the first time in two months. I really need to learn more of his songs but even if I did, no karaoke bar even HAS THEM! That is so jacked. It is like going to an American bar and they not have any Journey. They take away your liquor license!
13. Kanye West – Heartless (Last Week #16)
Kanyeezy moves up three spots this week as we move on. You know, I am really hoping that the remix version of “Go Hard” with Jay-Z becomes a video. It is one of the few Jay-Z guest verses I have actually liked in the last three years from him.
12. Joe Inoue – Closer (Last Week #14)
Joe Inoue moves up two spots as the Naruto bump looks to be helping them out a tad. You know, I haven’t watched Naruto in about 10 episodes and haven’t even been keeping up on the manga. Weird, I don’t know how Narutards put up with the crap.
11. UVERworld – Hakanaku mo Towa no Kanashi (Last Week #8)
The World finally falls out of the Top 10! UVERworld has had a rough go of it over the last year or so since dominating 2006. Here is hoping that 2009 turns around for them.
10. YA-KYIM respects KOME KOME CLUB – Kimi Ga Iru Dake De (Last Week #20, Biggest Mover)
HELLS YES! YA-KYIM makes a triumphant return to the chart! After two weeks, they are already back in the Top 10 jumping TEN SPOTS this week! This song is the mad notes and since I know the hook now…I think I can fake the rest of it at karaoke. Who’s with me?!
9. YUI – I’ll Be (Last Week #6)
Just like UVERworld did in 2006, YUI dominated 2007 but could not take the top spot in 2008 despite four videos hitting number two. Can she change her luck this year?
8. RSP with DA BUBBLE GUM BROTHERS – LA.LA.LA LOVE SONG (Last Week #11)
Welcome to the Top Ten! RSP bring the icons to the new generation with this video! Not only that, they covered a TK song which makes it triple bad ass! Damn, 2009 is looking GOOOOOOD.
7. Aqua Timez - Velonica (Last Week # 9)
Okay, enough games. I want the single for this and I want it FRICKING NOW. It is like Alones all over again. It was number one before they even RELEASED the single! MAKE IT HAPPEN!
6. T.I. feat Rihanna – Live Your Life (Last Week #4, Five Weeks at #1)
After a two and a half month run in the Top Five, T.I. and Rihanna fall outside of it for the first time in a long while. Since this may be the last time we see T.I. for a minute, you better get your fix now. Because he’s going to that gulag!
5. Nana Mizuki – TRICKSTER (Last Week #7)
Nana Mizuki is moving on up! Her first time out, she has taken a spot in the Top Five and the more I watch this video, the more I like it! I may have to make some more room in my baby boo mantle room!
4. Halcali – LONG KISS GOODBYE (Last Week #2)
After coming so close last week, Halcali falls two big spots from the runner up spot! They have been gone for a while and only show up once in a blue moon so hopefully this is a sign of them making more appearances. We are down to three!
3. Paramore – Decode (Last Week #5)
After a short hiatus, Paramore is back near the top! They move up two spots to the bronze step on the podium and they may be trying to go for two in a row! However…this is from Twilight and you KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE THAT MOVIE.
2. Ikimonogakari – Kimagure Romanteikku (Last Week #3)
Ikimonogakari is one step away once again! They have moved into the runner up spot, taking advantage of Halcali’s stumble. Can they do what they could not with “Bluebird” in 2007 and take the crown? Well, to do so they will have to knock off the reigning queen!
1.BoA – Eat You Up [Korean Version] (Last Week #1, Three Weeks at #1)
BoA is eating up the competition in 2009! She ended last year at number one and she holds on yet again for a third straight week! Can I just say that I am looking forward to her arrival in America? Hopefully people will embrace her because I am getting sick of Britney. REAL SICK. Let’s go, BoA!
That is all for this first Countdown of the New Year! Tune in next week to see if BoA can make it a full month at number one! Or will Ikimonogakari finally take the top spot? Or can Paramore return to glory and solidify their rank of best rock band on the Countdown? See you in seven to find out!
Well, SUPPOSEDLY Griff is back so he will be catching a beating this weekend for being a dick. Next week it is back to the grind of working (BOOOOO!) but I will have the Omnibus up before then. Last chance for questions! Stay up ya’ll!

2009: The Year Catnarok Strikes. May The Wolven Help Us...
Okay, maybe I wasn’t paying attention. Maybe I blocked it out. Maybe the shit just aint that important. But still, it has to be said…
HIS FULL FUCKING NAME IS SOULJA BOY TELL’EM?!
Um…what?! What the hell does that even mean?! You see, this is why Black people can’t never have nothing! NIGGAS ALWAYS FUCK IT UP WITH THEIR DUMB ASS DIPSHITTERY! How is anyone going to take rap seriously when your name is a DISJOINTED QUASI-STATEMENT?! I mean…DAMN IT! WHY ARE YOU ALIVE BUT TUPAC IS DEAD?! Oh yeah, drive by. Well, I still think it is stupid. God, I hope he pulls a T.I. and ends up in jail.
Alright, ladies here is some helpful advice to you because…it is obvious your dumb asses aint listening:
Lip Injections = Stupid
I understand why you do this. You want fuller lips. But lets face it: if you don’t HAVE full lips, no amount of collagen injections are going to make you look any better. The next woman to say “I do it for me!” is getting slapped because if Ike Turner has taught me anything it is that why take your lip with a lip can be broken. Or naturally swollen. See, getting popped in the mouth can make you sexy! In all seriousness I do not get what the influx with this is. At first I thought it was just few and far between but I have seen about 10 women this week with them and all I have to say is that they didn’t look attractive. They looked like a character from Spongebob Squarepants. Or Jessica Simpson:
WHO LOOKS LIKE A CHARACTER ON SPONGEBOB FUCKING SQUAREPANTS!
Ladies, that is how you look when you get your lips pumped up with marshmallow fluff or whatever that shit is. Seriously…stop. If a man is willing to judge you for your lips then he aint worth dating. On the flipside, if you are a woman that believes that having them helps your self esteem then you also aint worth shit. You are no better than Barry Bonds, and at least he got millions of dollars and a white girl by using steroids. Oh, and he ruined baseball for some people but those guys were losers. Baseball got ruined when they made Sandlot 2. You can not top THE SANDLOT.
Just some helpful advice. Peace out ya’ll.

Another Year Passed, And We STILL Ain't Found Tupac!
What is up, people! Well, we have 364 days, 52 weeks and 51 Fridays for Chachi’s Top 20 Countdown. Now, we add them all up and find out after 24 number one videos and several others coming close…who had the biggest video of 2008? Well sit back, grab a drink and check out the 100 biggest videos of the year before you head out and drink yourself stupid! It is time for…
Chachi’s Top 100 Videos of the Year End Extravaganza Disco Dancing Party!
Long ass name I will admit. Let’s get this Countdown party started right!
100. James Morrison – You Give Me Something
We start with James Morrison, who made a pretty low-key debut when this song was featured in a commercial for the FX lineup. Well, this song is bleeping awesome and that is why it is on here. Oddly enough, he never really followed it up with anything which is lame because he grew on me after a while.
99. Jewelry – Everybody Shhh!!!

Okay, first off this song is fricking awesome. Second off, this video is fricking trippy. Third off I TOTALLY ALMOST PULLED THIS OFF AT KARAOKE LAST NIGHT! Sadly, I only know the hook which is English and easy Korean but still. This is one of those videos that flew under the radar until the end of the year for me and I am glad I saw it because it is great!

86. Maroon 5 – Goodnight, Goodnight
85. T.I. – Whatever You Like

71. Snoop Dogg – Sexual Seduction
70. Tommy Heavenly6 – PAPER MOON
Wizard of Oz + hot Japanese lady rock singer = LOVE! First off, when I heard this as the opening to Soul Eater I was all over it (Especially after it followed TM REVOLUTION!). Combine that with a great video and you have the number 70 video. Not hard to do the math on that.

66. UVERworld – Hakanaku mo Towa no Kanashi
65. Southern All-Stars – I AM YOUR SINGER

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BREAK UP?! In what may be RBD’s last video, they really just did what they always do: LOOK DAMN HOT. Especially Anahi. She reminds me of a girl I once knew…she was special. VIVA LA REBELEDE!!!
62. Kumi Koda - Taboo
61. Rain – Love Story
60. YUI – I’ll Be
59. L`Arc~en~Ciel – DRINK IT DOWN
58. Bennie K feat SOFFet – Music Traveler
57. NLT – He Said, She Said
You know, NLT really disappointed me. After their first video, I never heard from them after that. However, I was all about this song because I was going through my Timbaland phase like I am going through my Runners phase now. That and boybands are awesome.
56. Lupe Fiasco – Hip Hop Saved My Life
55. Usher – Moving Mountains

45. UVERworld – ROOTS
44. Lupe Fiasco featuring Matt Santos – Superstar
Okay, this was actually one of my favorite videos of late 2007 because I am kind of a Lupe Fiasco stan. However, due to YouTube blocking the shit out of everything last year it was never officially on the Countdown. So this is a bit of a thanks to Lupe for changing hip hop a little for us.
43. John Legend – Show Me
42. HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Amazing
41. Lil Wayne featuring Static Major - Lollipop
40. YUI – Laugh Away

31. RBD - Inalcanzable
30. Rain – Rainism
IT WAS THE YEAR OF RAIN! Bi made his comeback this year after laying kind of low in 2007 (Rain’s World Vol IV came out in 2006) in a big way! An album considered for Album of the Year and one of the most visually entertaining videos of the year! Rain isn’t coming…IT’S BACK!
29. Ikimonogakari – Kimagure Romantic
28. Hyori Lee – U-Go-Girl

22. May J. – Do Tha’, Do Tha’ (One Week at #1)
In a year of artists getting their first number one videos after being held back multiple times (Game, Paramore, Foxxi MisQ and Hearts Grow for starters), May J started the trend of redemption! Not only was this one of the hottest videos of 2008 (Not involving lolis I mean. Sun I am looking at you! Damn you, Wonder Girls!) but it was one of the best dancing sequences as well…not done by Rain of course. I MISS MY MAY J!
21. Wonder Girls – Nobody (One Week at #1)
20. T.I. – No Matter What (One Week at #1)
19. Kanye West featuring Chris Martin – Homecoming (One Week at #1)

WHY GOD WHY?! First RBD broke up and to cap off the worst year ever, HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR are breaking up as well! Luckily, one of the videos they had as their swan song was a cover of the TM REVOLUTION CLASSIC! This video was number one before you could blink and for a final hurrah it was well worth it. I will miss you Hiroko!
14. NaNa – SHOW GIRL (Two Weeks at #1)
13. Paramore – That’s What You Get (Two Weeks at #1)
12. Kanye West – Love Lockdown (Two Weeks at #1)
11. Fonzworth Bentley featuring Kanye West & Andre 3000 – Everybody (Don’t Stop) [Two Weeks at #1]
AND NOW WE ARE DOWN TO THE TEN BIGGEST VIDEOS OF 2008!
10. Wonder Girls – So Hot (Two Weeks at #1)
We begin with the tenth biggest video of 2008! The Wonder Girls made their triumphant return to the K-Pop world and solidified my vendetta against Chris Hansen. This video is hilarious and yet surprisingly awesome at the same time. And yet I cannot shake the feeling every single time I watch this video, the party van comes a little closer to my house.
9. Usher feat Young Jeezy – Love In This Club (Three Weeks at #1)
At number nine we have the returning Usher! I had a threat-watch for Usher just as I did for Rain and Usher heeded my threat and came out with a kick ass video this year. Not only was the song great, he brought along hip hop’s biggest surprise in Young Jeezy which began HIS huge year as well. More from him later…
8. BoA – Eat You Up (Two Weeks at #1, Currently at #1)
BoA has returned! After only being released for about two months or so, BoA ranks in at number eight on 2088’s biggest videos! It is the current number one video and she has proven that she can dance and sing as well as her not as talented American counterparts. Oh, I so went there. This song is the ringtone, too!
7. Toshinobu Kobuta featuring Misia - Flying Easy Loving Crazy (Two Weeks at #1)
Kubota Toshinobu ft. MISIA-FLYING EASY LOVING CRAZY [PV]
Uploaded by Ashelia
The Legend finally gets his due! Toshinobu Kobuta was on the Countdown longer than any video in its three year history and even topped off that by taking the number one spot for two weeks this spring. It was well deserved for someone that has been laying it down for R&B in Japan for YEARS.
6. Hearts Grow – Sora (Three Weeks at #1)
When Hearts Grow breaks through, THEY BREAK THROUGH! After being held back from the top spot twice, the third time was the charm enough to put them at number six on the biggest videos of 2008, right outside of the Top Five! After a pretty lengthy journey, they not only took number one but took it for almost a month! Here is hoping for an album in 2009. We are down to FIVE!
5. Young Jeezy featuring Kanye West – Put On (Three Weeks at #1)
We begin the Top Five with one of the biggest suprises of 2008! Young Jeezy had been one of the mid-range rappers on the Countdown but this year he came out with a vengeance, pulling down the fifth biggest video of the year! This video was topical and hard at the same time. Let’s not forget he brought Kanye West along for the ride which always helps out. He put it on for the Countdown!
4. YA-KYIM – Super Looper (Three Weeks at #1)
So we move up to number four and we have the fine, sexy ladies of YA-KYIM! They had arguably the biggest year of all the female artists with this video. It was catchy, had great dancing and did I mention that Yurie is damn fine? Because if I didn’t…she SO IT. I totally love her.
WE ARE DOWN TO THE THREE BIGGEST VIDEOS OF 2008!
3. CRS (Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Pharrell) featuring Thom Yorke – Us Placers (Four Weeks at #1)
Hard to believe that an obscure track on a Kanye West mixtape would be the third biggest video of 2008. Yet, when you have an outside of the box video such as this you have to take notice. The song is meaningful (Especially Pharrell who gains a new level of respect from me for this one) and the video is so different that you have to sit back and watch. Combine those factors and CRS takes the bronze!
2. T.I. featuring Rihanna – Live Your Life (Five Weeks at #1)
Okay, we are at the runner up spot and if it wasn’t for BoA, this video may have ended up being number one! However, since Eat You Up knocked it off, T.I. and Rihanna will have to take home the silver for 2008. T.I. actually had the biggest video of 2006 and after a slow 2007 he came back to have four videos in the Top 40! This was the crown jewel and tosses his hat in the ring for not only the King of the South, but the King of the Countdown! Well, with T.I. and Rihanna at number two, we KNOW WHO THE CHAMP IS!
1. Bennie K – Monochrome (Seven Weeks at #1)
The Queens are back! How fitting that one of the groups that made me fall in love with J-Pop have the biggest video of the year almost 10 years to the date I took to the whole Asian music scene? Well, if any video deserves it, it is Monochrome. It spent an ASTOUNDING seven weeks at number one this year and is hands down the biggest video on the Countdown for 2008, and maybe ever! Yuki and Cico are two of my faves and it will be interesting to see what 2009 brings!
That is all! Tune in Friday for the FIRST PASSION OF CHACHI TOP 20 VIDEO COUNTDOWN of 2009! Bennie K took it this year but look out for BoA, Ikimonogakari, Aqua Timez and even more Kanye West and Game! 2009 is looking up!
Well, I want to thank everyone who visited the blog this year. Whether you cared about the Countdown or not, it is good to have you visit and take a look. Stay tuned for the 2008 Year In Review Omnibus which I will work on tomorrow (Once I sober up and all…) and have up this weekend. If you still have questions to ask, lay them on me before then. Thank you again to all of the fans out there and I will put in the work to keep you coming. Until next time, stay up peeps. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

2008: Well...At Least It Wasn't 1987. Now THAT Was A Shitty Year.
What is up, peeps! I am back for a quick update before the final few days of 2008! There are a few things I want to bring up right now:
Congratulations, Falcons!
As a Falcon fan, I am very happy about this season. Even as optimistic as I was, I never thought that these guys would rally together like they have and pull off what they have done. They came one bad New Orleans defensive read of being NFC South Champs which is a lot more than any Falcons fan thought. Hell, many of us thought they would be bumped down to a Big East Conference team. And STILL finish 4-8. Instead, we got arguably the most offensively sound (Few sacks, until recently few turnovers) in the NFL combined with a defense that seemed to stop people at pivotal moments when teams of our past would have ran away and said “HE’S COMING RIGHT FOR US!” while they ran up and down the field. Rookie QB, rookie coach, career backup running back and a malcontent wide receiver equals one of the biggest team chemistry and team rebuilding turn-arounds in sports history. People who aren’t fans do not understand how the collective hearts of the Atlanta Falcon fandom sank when Mike Vick walked into that courthouse as we watched video of him blatantly lying to his fans on draft day about his participation in dogfighting. When Bill Parcells said not no but HELLS NO to becoming the leader of the Falcons franchise to go to the DOLPHINS THAT ONLY WON ONE DAMN GAME showed how badly this franchise had fallen. Even the staunchest fan turned their backs. I was one of the most skeptical fans out there, seeing my favorite team go through so many shifts and changes that it didn’t even look the same. They let go of Warrick Dunn (A personal fave) DeAngelo Hall (Who could eat my ass) and Alge Crumpler (Who ate everything in sight…no offense) which pretty much gutted the team. Then…something happened. Matt Ryan, a guy who called “talented but man is he prone to fuckups” stepped in and didn’t fuck up. He actually played well. The Falcons began to win and dammit it felt good. Real good.
So today I look forward to the Falcons in the playoffs for the first time without Mike Vick in over a decade. I honestly thought this day wouldn’t come for three years or so but here I am totally looking forward to next Saturday’s playoff game. I am more of a closet sports fan (I can only discuss it with Rick for the most part) but today I am happy to say I am proud of my team. Great job, guys. Great job.
I Have A Dream…Of A New Holiday!
Okay, so I am sick and tired of there being that lull after New Year’s Eve until Valentine’s Day. Mostly because I haven’t had a good Valentine’s Day since 2006. However, I think it is time that we as Americans rally around a new holiday. It is a day that is overdue for a mascot and even a festive food choice. I bring to you the new major celebrated holiday…
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR DAY
Yes, before you hippies start your blathering I know he already has a day. What I mean is make Martin Luther King Day the next Christmas. Not in terms of the Jesus ridiculousness. I mean we should have Martin Luther King Day cookies and cakes! They will ring with the delicious taste of freedom and equality! Much like Christmas has eggnog, MLK Day can have Swirl Milkshakes! Taste the racial equality and refreshing, frosty taste of vanilla and chocolate mixed together! Oh, and I know some of you assholes were thinking I was going to say orange drink or something and for that I hope you get raped in the face…racist jackass. We should have a Santa Claus-like mascot! Martin Luther King delivers justice to all the good White and Black boys and girls (No Mexicans. You have Cinco De Mayo AND that creepy Day of the Dead thing that no one knows but you. Besides, Mexicans + Corona + tejano music = a holiday ANYDAY!) of America…and he gives out CD’s of Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye! Why? They are fucking awesome and if you don’t think so you should be whacked in the babymakers. You could even sit on MLK’s lap at the mall and tell him what you want for MLK day! Of course, don’t ask for separate but equal because you will catch a hot one to your domepeice.
Top it off with some MLK Day carols and we will be all set! It would be the greatest day ever! Could you imagine the Charlie Brown MLK Day Special? It would look a lot like this:
See, already better than Christmas! So join me on Martin Luther King Day in celebrating his contributions and shaking it like a Polaroid picture while drinking phosphates and ringing out in his familiar chorus! HEEEEEEEEYYYYYYY YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Well, I will be back this week. If you have any questions for the Omnibus let me know them know because I will be working on it on Tuesday. Until then, stay up peeps.

Congratulations, Falcons!
As a Falcon fan, I am very happy about this season. Even as optimistic as I was, I never thought that these guys would rally together like they have and pull off what they have done. They came one bad New Orleans defensive read of being NFC South Champs which is a lot more than any Falcons fan thought. Hell, many of us thought they would be bumped down to a Big East Conference team. And STILL finish 4-8. Instead, we got arguably the most offensively sound (Few sacks, until recently few turnovers) in the NFL combined with a defense that seemed to stop people at pivotal moments when teams of our past would have ran away and said “HE’S COMING RIGHT FOR US!” while they ran up and down the field. Rookie QB, rookie coach, career backup running back and a malcontent wide receiver equals one of the biggest team chemistry and team rebuilding turn-arounds in sports history. People who aren’t fans do not understand how the collective hearts of the Atlanta Falcon fandom sank when Mike Vick walked into that courthouse as we watched video of him blatantly lying to his fans on draft day about his participation in dogfighting. When Bill Parcells said not no but HELLS NO to becoming the leader of the Falcons franchise to go to the DOLPHINS THAT ONLY WON ONE DAMN GAME showed how badly this franchise had fallen. Even the staunchest fan turned their backs. I was one of the most skeptical fans out there, seeing my favorite team go through so many shifts and changes that it didn’t even look the same. They let go of Warrick Dunn (A personal fave) DeAngelo Hall (Who could eat my ass) and Alge Crumpler (Who ate everything in sight…no offense) which pretty much gutted the team. Then…something happened. Matt Ryan, a guy who called “talented but man is he prone to fuckups” stepped in and didn’t fuck up. He actually played well. The Falcons began to win and dammit it felt good. Real good.
So today I look forward to the Falcons in the playoffs for the first time without Mike Vick in over a decade. I honestly thought this day wouldn’t come for three years or so but here I am totally looking forward to next Saturday’s playoff game. I am more of a closet sports fan (I can only discuss it with Rick for the most part) but today I am happy to say I am proud of my team. Great job, guys. Great job.
I Have A Dream…Of A New Holiday!
Okay, so I am sick and tired of there being that lull after New Year’s Eve until Valentine’s Day. Mostly because I haven’t had a good Valentine’s Day since 2006. However, I think it is time that we as Americans rally around a new holiday. It is a day that is overdue for a mascot and even a festive food choice. I bring to you the new major celebrated holiday…
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR DAY
Yes, before you hippies start your blathering I know he already has a day. What I mean is make Martin Luther King Day the next Christmas. Not in terms of the Jesus ridiculousness. I mean we should have Martin Luther King Day cookies and cakes! They will ring with the delicious taste of freedom and equality! Much like Christmas has eggnog, MLK Day can have Swirl Milkshakes! Taste the racial equality and refreshing, frosty taste of vanilla and chocolate mixed together! Oh, and I know some of you assholes were thinking I was going to say orange drink or something and for that I hope you get raped in the face…racist jackass. We should have a Santa Claus-like mascot! Martin Luther King delivers justice to all the good White and Black boys and girls (No Mexicans. You have Cinco De Mayo AND that creepy Day of the Dead thing that no one knows but you. Besides, Mexicans + Corona + tejano music = a holiday ANYDAY!) of America…and he gives out CD’s of Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye! Why?

Rap: Sucking Since Some Hatin' Ass Nigga Decided To Take Tupac Shakur From Us.
What is up, people?! It is the week before 2009 and I hope all of you had a great Christmas or whatever holiday you celebrate or whatever. Well, the Year End Extravaganza is completed (Barring some huge chart moves) and I am gearing up for the Year End Omnibus so be sure to get me your questions ASAP if you want them answered on the 30th. Just a heads up and reminder about that. Just leave a comment or send an email if you have questions that you want answered. Short update tomorrow to recap the last week of the NFL slate of games and a few short words (Maybe) about the Atlanta Falcons and their turnaround this year. If you aren’t a Falcons fan, you wouldn’t understand.
Well, real quickly. I need to get something off my chest. Can I just say that I am sick of rappers talking about how much money they have while we are in the beginnings of a FUCKING RECESSION? I mean seriously, if you are so ballin why don't you help some of the schools that can't get technology funding or some of the safehouses for abused women that are shutting down left and right? You wonder why no one takes your trifiling asses seriously. YOU DON'T TAKE YOUR TRIFILING ASSES SERIOUSLY! All the money in the fucking world (Or so you claim) and you can't buy a bit of common-fucking-sense. It is why I switched to J-Pop and K-Pop. Well, that and I love's me some YA-KYIM. But mostly because rappers piss me off. Kanye was wrong: BLACK PEOPLE DON'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE. Or as Prop 8 showed, Black people don't care about much of anything. Except Lil' Wayne. Still don't understand that one. GET A DAMN HAIR CUT, YOU HIPPIE!
Well, enough on that. I just get sick and tired of relying on the same five rappers to bail me out of the cespool that is the current rebuilting of hip hop. Every brick that someone lays down, 50 Cent manages to tear down. Or Plies, I think he is hot in the streets now. And I STILL don't know what a Shawty Lo is. I will be back soon, hopefully Sunday evening. Until then, stay up peeps and enjoy some YA-KYIM:
I love this fucking song so much right now.

Another Christmas, Another Year Without Christmas Cake...
Well, it has been another year and another successful 52 weeks. But we now have the final Countdown of 2008 so sit back and see the final listing for the biggest videos on Earth with…
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown
Let’s begin with Falling Out:
T.I. – What Up, What’s Happening (Peaked at #2)
HIGH AND MIGHTY COLOR – Remember (Peaked at #6)
HAMC’s swan song makes me sad as we end the year and as for T.I. I guess he will be gone for a year as well for other reasons. Let’s get the Countdown started with the return of the shooting stars of 2008!
20. YA-KYIM respects KOME KOME CLUB – Kimi Ga Iru Dake De (New Entry)
Hells yes! YA-KYIM is back with a mini-album of covers/remakes and this may be the best of the bunch! I was familiar with the Kome Kome Club but this song was one I had never really heard to a big extent due to my language barrier. I have to say, I love this song now. And these ladies are fine as hell.
19. Wonder Girls - Nobody (Last Week #16, One Week at #1)
The Wonder Girls are STILL hanging on to the Countdown this week! They don’t look to have a new video out before the end of the year, which is a shame.
18. Game feat Ne-Yo – Camera Phone (New Entry)
Looks like the Game is back! This time he brings along Ne-Yo whose irritation factor has dropped of significantly over the last few months. This initially wasn’t one of my favorite songs on the album but it has really grown on me.
17. Kanye West – Love Lockdown (Last Week #14, Two Weeks at #1)
Kanye is still holding on with his first video from 808’s and Heartbreak. He has arguably had the biggest year of any artist not named Lil Wayne and we will have to see if that equals awards.
16. Kanye West – Heartless (Last Week #19)
Mo Kanye, Mo Problems! His latest video jumps up three spots this week as we move on. Here is hoping he does a video for “Amazing” or “Coldest Winter” because those are my favorite songs on the album.
15. Young Jeezy – Crazy World (Last Week #12)
The Snowman falleth! He falls three spots this week as we end the year. Can he get his latest video out by next week?
14. Joe Inoue – Closer (Last Week #17)
Joe Inoue moves up this week as they look to start off 2009 with a bang! Their Naruto opening is looking to become the third to make it to the Top Three.
13. David Cook – Light On (Last Week #15)
Yeah, I like David Cook. Sue me. With rock being relegated to the return of AC/DC. Guns ‘N’ Roses and Metallica…rock needs help.
12. Kumi Koda – Taboo (Last Week #10)
Miss Koda falls out of the Top 10 for the first time since October!! Her new album comes out next month and I am looking forward to this almost as much as I did Black Cherry! I missed my baby boo!
11. RSP with DA BUBBLE GUM BROTHERS – LA.LA.LA LOVE SONG (Last Week #13)
This song has officially taken over. It is one of the three new ringtones and when people hear it…they don’t know who it is and I don’t care. Either way, RSP is making the most of their Countdown debut!
10. Rain (Bi) – Rainism (Last Week #7)
We enter the Top 10 with Rain! And he is falling down this week. I am hoping that there is a video for “Fresh Lady” in my future but odds are…not this year. MAKE IT HAPPEN!
9. Aqua Timez - Velonica (Last Week # 11)
Aqua Timez is back! They move into the Top 10 for the second time this year and are hoping that they can pull down their second number one video! Also, Bleach is FINALLY kicking ass again in the manga. Get caught up and check it out!
8. UVERworld – Hakanaku mo Towa no Kanashi (Last Week #6)
UVERworld stalls once again in their quest to end their streak of videos not hitting number one. It is hard to top the success of three straight number one videos, though.
7. Nana Mizuki – TRICKSTER (Last Week #9)
Nana Mizuki is making the most of her stay! Her first time out and she is moving up to the Top Five! This video is now on the phone and I don’t care what people think about it. She is a cutie, too!
6. YUI – I’ll Be (Last Week #3)
Much like The World, Yui continues her streak of not hitting the number one after two straight chart-toppers. As a matter of fact, she has hit number two with six straight videos without taking the top spot again. Damn…that’s rough.
5. Paramore – Decode (Last Week #8)
Paramore is back near the top! This gives them their second Top Five video of 2008 in the last week of the Countdown of this year. Too bad it is from that shitty ass Twinkle movie. Oh, check out the trailer for Underworld. THAT is how you make a vampire movie, jackasses.
4. T.I. feat Rihanna – Live Your Life (Last Week #1, Five Weeks at #1)
T.I. and Rihanna fall from the top spot! They had the second longest reign of 2008 (Behind Bennie K’s astounding 7 weeks on top) and even though they fell from the top, they still had a very big year. We are down to the final Top Three of 2008!
3. Ikimonogakari – Kimagure Romanteikku (Last Week #5)
Ikimonogakari is back! For the second time this year, they make the Top Three! Can they FINALLY pull down their first number one video?
2. Halcali – LONG KISS GOODBYE (Last Week #4)
Halcali is back! The ladies move up to number two this week and are the highest they have ever been since 2006! But with T.I. & Rihanna at number four and Halcali at number two, the new queen is still on top!
1. BoA – Eat You Up [Korean Version] (Last Week #1, Two Weeks at #1)
BoA is on top for a second straight week! This song is the new officially all call ringtone and I even saw a commercial for this video on MTV! Could we see BoA truly invade America?! I hope so because dammit I am TIRED OF BRITNEY! Give me BoA!
That is all for the final Countdown of 2008! Tune in on January 2nd for the first Countdown of 2009! Will BoA begin 2009 the way she ended 2008 at number one? Or will Halcali return to the top spot? Or will Ikimonogakari FINALLY take the throne? Tune in next Friday to find out!
That is all for now, peeps! Tune in on New Year’s Eve for the End of Year Top 100 Video Countdown of 2008 and the Year End Extravaganzaa on December 30th including the final Omnibus of 2008! Stay tuned and stay up!
