LoadingReadyRun: Scientist's Rebuttal to ICP

[_Nocturnal]

I started laughing right from the start. About a third of the way in, I had to stop the video, firstly because I already wanted to watch it again, and secondly in order to see the original, so I could enjoy it even better. Now I want more! FOREVER!!!

If you want a laugh, cracked.com posted their ICP article just over a week ago. Some pretty funny stuff. http://www.cracked.com/blog/learn-your-motherfuckin-science-with-the-icp/

As a scientist, I have to say I am slightly offended by the ICP video. They ask how a magnet works, but won't talk to scientists because they're all liars. I wasn't aware we had traveled back in time to hundreds of years ago when magic was the go-to explanation for natural phenomena.

I am so torn between my hatered of rap and ICP and my love of you guys.
I am so very confused right now.

Why torn? LRR is making fun of ICP.

 

[TheMufflon]

I don't get it, why would scientists have a problem with Inductivly Coupled Plasma?

 

[Megido]

Meh...when I heard the song was rap I turned it off in disgust.

Yay for closed-mindedness!

 

[Megido]

sorry but the 'song' was pretty lame. Paul was just talking with music playing in the background. It got better and funnier when Graham came in but it still felt pretty weak.

I'd be willing to bet that was intentional.

 

[Morayman]

YEEEAH SUCK IT SUCKAS! or something along those lines.

 

[Vimbert]

This was... unexpected. Paul was pretty good in this one: "All manner of science up in this *****!"

 

[Maur DL]

if you don't get it, you probabaly ought to watch this:

Definitely need to see this video first. If anyone not willing to watch it is wondering "what they did" it can basically be summed up here:

"F'n magnets, how do they work? And I don't wanna talk to a scientist. Ya'll motherf'rs lyin', and gettin' me pissed."

Quite possibly the most ignorant statement of the decade. Such blatant heralding of stupidity almost made ME pissed. Promoting this kind of thinking (or lack of thinking) is exactly what holds humanity back. So duuuuuuumb.... AAARRGGHHHH!!!!!!

Anyway... that said, Paul should never ever attempt rapping again. His bland monotone voice and delivery also make him a poor candidate for giving lectures. Graham at least had the right idea. If you are going to parody something, you have to at least RESEMBLE it Mr. Sanders

I am grateful to this video if for nothing else making me aware of one of the greater evils pervading our world. I've always heard ICP was stupid, but I had no idea just how much, or how proud they are of it.

It's the opposite of a miracle!

Marshall amplification. The only way to go

I've been a long-time fan of this site, and feel it's time I say somthing.
Being a Juggalo myself, I would like to enlighten you to (at least my) idea of the song you decided to parody.
The song "Miracles" is essentially telling other juggalos (or fans of Insane Clown Posse) to go out and experience the world with a sence of wonder and apreciation instead of closing themself off from it. It isn't a "diss" to science whatsoever.
Sure, The Insane Clown Posse didn't do well in school, or even get to far in it either, but their accomplishments speak for themselves.

All in all I did enjoy your video, but I felt both sides of the story needed some clarification.

Two posts above yours, it is quoted from the song "F'n magnets, how do they work? And I don't wanna talk to a scientist. Ya'll motherf'rs lyin', and gettin' me pissed."

That is not a diss to science? Excuse me?

In comparison to my favourite Paul rap project, This is why I'm Paul, it's can be said that this one was slightly worse. However, it was a rather spot on parody of the Miracles "song", and I use that word sparingly. I have a feeling the reception of this is/will be much like Those Games.

It's called juxtaposition. To me, Paul's dry explanations are funnier because of Graham's actual attempt at rapping, and vice versa.

Besides, Paul *can* rap. Watch 'Rapstar 64K' on LRR's website.

 

[Lord Xtheth]

It's a lyric, meant to both rhyme and entertain their fans. In my own post I admitted that they aren't the smartest of people, but they're entertainers for their demographic, and you are aparently not in it.

In case you didn't notice, they're clowns... if you take them that seriously, I think you may need some help.

 

[Volafortis]

Ehh.. Not the best LRR. Oh well, though, there's always next week.

 

[Chasmodius]

I actually liked Paul's style... at least, I am assuming that he was doing it deadpan by intention, as that is what one might expect from a rapping scientist. I won't go into the question of why Giraffe's heads are so up so high or the fact that their necks are actually so short since A) we don't really know why/how that happened, and B) others have already addressed it here.

I will, however, hold LRR responsible for my having just watched slash listened to an ICP song. That's four and a half minutes of memories I wish I could sear from my brain.

 

[Baldry]

After watching the insane clown posse, I believe this was a fair and remarkable response. Twas also pretty funny, keep up thee good work!

 

[Metallgoth]

Wow. Just wow.
