Why on Earth Would You Pay Attention to Rebecca Black?

So Rebecca Black has 2 threads in the main forum and 1 in Kiddical Mass as I post this. And really i can only ask why over and over?

Is the Chainlink mainly made up of 13yr old girls? Is everyone on Chainlink hearing impaired? Does everyone here really love putrid music?

And how is it being debated that it sends a pro-car message? As much as we rail against cars all it shows is kids sitting in a car. That does happen in reality.

A bit repetitive maybe?

Guess we'll have to see what happens this upcoming Friday.

Me too. The whole thing is funny and just goofy whimsical sarcastic fun -other than some of the really mean-spirited threats and insults at RB herself. She's a little girl for chrissakes... But the whole phenomenon is good for a few laughs. I'm amazed it has the legs that it does. It seems to still be growing -not fading out. I give it another week though.

When it comes to copyright it is usually OK to make satire out of something as that constitutes fair use.

I enjoy the meme's that have come out of "Friday" so that makes it not so mad to me anymore.

The friday in hell was awesome and Jimmy Fallen bit was epic.

I'm guessing they didn't trademark or copywrite the music since everyone seems to be doing something with it.

I think he just cranked out something quick to be a smartass in part because a bunch of people had done their own deadmau5/rb mashups. I've got the loop as my ringtone now because I want to die.
