“Ever wish songs just sang what was happening in the music video? Well now they do…”

As heard on this week’s Radio Happy Hour

The Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour YouTube account has been permanently terminated “due to terms of use violation” pertaining to a video titled Islam Porn: Prophet Muhammad’s Virgin Fantasy 72.

The video, showing the controversial Dutch cartoon depiction of the Prophet Muhammad and featuring a skit containing several double entendres, puns and plays on words has been on YouTube for nearly a full year.

The skit debuted on the Radio Happy Hour on June 24th, 2008, the same day the video was uploaded onto YouTube.  Though sexual in nature, the video and skit is clearly parody.  In fact, it opens up with a disclaimer claiming just that.

No official reason was given to the Radio Happy Hour, nor did they recieve any notice of a violation.

YouTomb, a research project of MIT Free Culture with the purpose of  investigating “what kind of videos are subject to takedown notices due to allegations of copyright infringement with particular emphasis on those for which the takedown may be mistaken” has yet to find an explaination for the video’s removal or the name of a complaintant.

Below is the full video in question, still accessible on FunnyOrDie.com:

It is incredibly sad to me that Susan Boyle has captured the imagination of the entire world.

Of course, Boyle is the homely looking 47-year-old unemployed charity worker who lives with her cat in a small village in Scotland that appeared on the UK’s Britain’s Got Talent and surprised everyone with her beautiful singing voice.  The media is lauding this as inspirational and heartwarming, fans are forwarding the YouTube clip to their friends and millions have shed a tear at how uplifting this story is.

I think that this whole thing is awful! 

The fact that the entire world is clinging to the overwhelming joy that was brought on by the shocking twist that a frumpy and impossibly heinous looking woman actually had a unique talent is downright depressing.  The idea that the same people who felt it was okay to laugh, point at and roll their eyes at her before she sang were the ones applauding and kissing her ass after her performance.

What the lesson to be learned?  Ugly, awkward people are subhuman until they prove that they have some redeeming value or worth? 

Great. 

“Don’t judge a book by its cover” is such an old cliché and lesson that it probably has a gray beard and needs Cialis, but still, nobody seems to get it!  What kind of message does this whole Susan Boyle hoopla give to all the butt ugly kids in this world who can’t sing?  Should they be resigned to getting bullied and picked on for their entire life because not only were they hit with the ugly stick but were also born without an exceptional talent?

You can all continue to coo over Susan Boyle, but not me.  This is just further proof that mankind has yet to evolve.

Looks like Philsquatch was right! Below is the clip of presidential candidate Barack Obama that the mythical, roof falling creature referenced in last night’s show:

He’s the UK rapper slugging actor Jesse Melcalfe:
