If I were halfway competent, I'd make a response site with the "A++++++++" scene from A Christmas Story.

The paper I turned in, "I can has Dialectic Postcultural Theory? : LOLcats, Foucault and semioticist nihilism" totally threw off the grading curve.

What would you suggest? I picked the song because it's so repetitive already that when people have to refresh to get to the next page they wouldn't care so much that the song had to restart.

Good work. I don't have time to read it now, but I will come back.

This is awful. The music is annoying, and it's... it's a freakin' school report! Why is this rated so high? I fell asleep on the third page!

Lots of typos. LOL. Shakespeare spelled wrong several times, "YTMDN.com" twice, "dirrection" instead of "direction", Forrester spelled wrong ... but lol because you used a Henry Jenkins book as a source. I'm using one for the project I'm working on now (non-YTMND related).

I read it all and found it fairly interesting. I've always thought that YTMND has a unique take on pop culture. We don't (usually) regurgitate what we've been fed. Instead, we find a way to put our own spin on it, even if it just means looping it. Some of my favorites are sites where you have pop culture crossover, like [site msfcbf:site]. To me, we aren't just "artists"; we're remix/mashup artists.
