Artist – WeezerTitle – Pork and BeansIs Like – The Internet in three minutes and 18 seconds
Chances are, if you’ve been even remotely connected with the series of tubes known to the layman as the Internet you’ve already seen this video. The idea is that it takes every major meme, fad, video, and trend on the Internet and condenses as much of it as possible into a video set to Weezer’s “Pork and Beans”. It’s strangely appropriate, since the song is essentially about living life for yourself and not worrying about living up to other’s standards, and the Internet is one of the few places that almost everyone feels the freedom to do or say whatever they want. If you’re not an Internet junkie, you might not understand some of the appearances, but the song itself is still enjoyable. And if you are an Internet junkie, it’s probably one of the most awesome music videos you’ll ever watch.

Artist – ReebokTitle – Terry Tate, Office LinebackerIs Like – A beat-down at the water cooler
Terry Tate was hired for one reason and one reason only: to lay the smackdown on out-of-line office workers. Productivity in the office has gone up 46% since Terry Tate has been there. Didn’t get those TPS reports in on time? Terry Tate will shove you into a wall in the hallway. Taking an extended break? Terry Tate will show you the meaning of pain. Male or female, Terry Tate does not discriminate. He will tackle you, and when he has you on the floor, he’ll point and yell at you until you cry. And you’ll never get out of line again.
