If you have gone to college in the past 20 years, odds are you went to about a thousand more A Cappella concerts than you bargained for. I was an RA in college, and frankly by the end I started boycotting them as a matter of principle.
Anyway, this video is hilarious: A Cappella Addiction Counseling.
Hat-tip: Daniel Drezner.
Didn't they do the er "music" to that wretched Carmen Sandiego show?
I think you mean Rockapella.
Yes, fortunately enough they are no longer a problem, as they were in fact first against the wall when the revolution came. Everyone was so happy they decided to call off the revolution.
Have you ever noticed how much Wikipedia loves to point out if something is a "portmanteau"?
You know I had, and I think it must be that they let people who post articles select from a set of tabs to associate them with. I think I am going to start making up words to put in Wikipedia so that I can use it.
Or maybe I could name my children Portmaneau names...like Fredward...
I feel the need to point out that I have committed the crime of potmanteau-ery with my very on blog name. Oh the HORROR! I hope this means i'll get a wikipedia entry soon. In fact, i bet its a shoe-in.
