I heard the refrain "Give Up" as homage to Negativland's "Christianity..."

Minor household inconveniences will motherfucking kill you.

3:30 and 3:39 is the voice of Chris Chandler, who I used to work with.

He had some funny stories about some of the fly-by-night operations he sometimes did voice overs for. Like the one that paid him with a rough-looking pile of fives, tens, and twenties. And the job that they told him was something else, and it was the introductions and bridges for a gay phone sex line.

But that's my life!

I propose a "culture of whining" tag.

Also, you turn that rock music down, Grandpa! I've had enough of you trying to bend over, with your hunching.

Every chance I get to say "OH NO!" in an infomercial tone, I take.

Early on the weekends, when I'm at the gym it seems like all they show are these things. You're on mile 3 and on TV someone is touting the benefit of some ridiculous spot-reduction device.

Your capitalism at work, ladies and gentlemen.

Why don't we all just give up?

"Are affluent American vices based upon exploitative marketing practices getting you down!? Well, it's our turn now, pal!"

It's as if these narrators we're being sacrificed to a terrible, ancient, desert god and these were their last curses upon the people.

Go on, do it! Once I am gone, strangers will come to your homes and spray POISONS around your FOOD, CHILDREN, and PETS!"

This is a suicide note, is what it is. Nicely done.

Fuck you, Discovery Channel.

YOU LIED!!

Reaching for this handgun and loading it and pointing it at my family and then myself is such a hassle in my busy 24/7 day-to-day modern life full of failing household appliances and awful cooking and debt and filth and infirm dogs and my own rotting aging body, there just has to be an easier way!!!!! I can't stop crying, just please stop and let color return to my world you godless voices just sttooooopppppppppp Stoppppp STOP

We are constantly busy, fumble fingered dough bags who are completely able to bend over or pull together the concept that a 4 inch wide apple will not fit in a 2.5 inch hole. Nothing ever goes right for us. We unintentionally poison our children on a daily basis and sneeze without covering our faces. We are unable to work around problems that seem to have been placed there only to torment us. Everything is meaningless. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a better way. There must be a bette____________________

Five stars for jangbones, NovaPolice and Urburos. The video's good too! Favorited.

The new opening to the Zooropa album.

It's about time somebody did this. A parade of incompetent people.

The video does not work. Why does the video not work? :(

The most profound thing EiT will ever do.

there must be a better way

Also, seriously, this needs the "First World Problems" tag more than anything has ever needed it before.

OH! NO!

Oh yeah, I'm getting an unsightly bulge from all this failure.
