    One episode of the Guild, or perhaps half an episode, was enough to turn me off to it forever.

    But Felicia Day is pretty cool I guess.

    No, I just think it's annoying how every pretty face Whedon 'discovers' becomes a sensation on the internet.

    Becoming a "sensation on the Internet" doesn't really require much. :P

    And to be fair, I didn't watch Buffy and don't watch Dollhouse, and I'd still bone Eliza Dushku like whoa.

    I finally made myself watch the whole thing and it basically made me cringe the whole way through. You can't make a sexy song using MMO terminology. You just can't. You shouldn't even try. Not even as a joke. It's not funny, just depressing.

    That's pretty much what all music does these days. It's a fad that needs to be beaten until dead.

    And Felica Day isn't all that amazing a personality (or actor), she's just another Joss Whedon discovery. Pretty much any girl he points a camera at becomes masturbation material for internet nerds.

    Wow, I think i can spare some of my sense of humor and donate it to you. I mean, even scraps would be better than having absolutely NONE of it.

    It's supposed to be a joke, that video. That's why it includes all the tropes from "modern" shitty music.

    I'm not sure that's entirely accurate since the biggest profile jobs she's had involve two webshows that basically only geeks know about and some Sears commercials.

    Being famous on the internet isn't exactly the same thing as having a thriving acting career. I mean, don't misunderstand I think she's a pretty cool lady and I even actually like The Guild in (very) small doses, but you're just kind of giving off a lot of anger here.

    That's amazing.

    Though, perhaps not. I imagine most songs follow a pretty well defined format, and it's not super crazy that two of them would do the verse-chorus changes at roughly the same time.

    This thread is taking itself way way too serious, presumably due to the influence of internet professors who wish to show they have no time for tomfoolery.

    Music video was goofy as hell, I got a chuckle out of it in spite of its lack of high art.

    Verily good sir, I cannot understand the actions of these rogues. It is not ungentlemanly to indulge oneself in the more simple pleasures and satirical whimsy of the masses, rather, it helps to assuage fears of losing touch with the working-class.

    There is a forum for off topic discussions which happens to have a youtube video thread.

    It's a video from a major gaming thingy. So it's VERY game related.

    Okay, I endured the vocals and found some chuckle-worthy visual gags.

    And yeah, the Rogue is the perfect fit for this video, because he's taking his Not Serious Business totally Seriously. :D

    The fat that she stops lipsyncing the vocals to eat/drink more made me snicker heartily.

    Okay so I just flipped back to page 2 and the "Tycho grooming Felicia" video.

    I expected, like, monkey style grooming, sound effects and all. I was sorely disappointed. :(

    Man, this video was weird.

    Normally Tink does nothing for me when I watch the show, and Felicia makes me want to kinda track her down and rape her (gently). But it was sort of the opposite in the video.

    Re: The sound... meh. I don't think she's got a bad voice or anything, and it's just as catchy as most shit you hear on the radio these days. I don't get the hate.

    Is it wrong that I thought that two Nickelback songs at the same time actually sounded better than either alone :)

    And still, the guild is awesome, Felicia Day is a funny girl who is also pretty hot and also seems to be really nice to her fans, AND this song is pretty funny if you've played an MMO.

    Eh, you know what I meant.

    And I actually enjoy the Guild, even though I barely play MMOs anymore. The last ones to get any real time away from me are UO and EQ. It's a cool show. I'll admit it gives off kind of an annoying vibe at first, but ignore it for an episode and you're golden.

    Lyrics were amusing. I cracked a smile a few times.

    The music itself wasn't so good, but is as good as I would expect from any sort of music that does parody, but then again, I need to ask myself, was this a music video meant to be taken seriously? In the same way that AL yankovich or Flight of the Concords is to be taken?
