3E Presents: A Top 21 Things on the Internet: #14 I'm on a Boat, the Natalie Portman Rap, and general Lonely Island stuff

This is the second straight entry that makes me want to say "Shawtee!"

Actually, most of their stuff isn't terribly good. But a lot of it is good, and some of it is downright brilliant.



I think it started with Weird Al, that parody and satire started to be better than the target of ridicule. Rap is so silly, though, and so ready to sell out (that is, after all, T-Pain up there), that we're going to reach the point where we can't really talk about satire.
