History has proven time and time again that if you want to destroy a fad, a sweeping trend, or runaway success, all you have to do is make a rap song about it.? There is nothing more pitiful than watching a non-rapper attempt to rap and nothing that enrages the inner soul more than listening to a non-rapper trying to rap.? The 1985 Chicago Bears were perhaps the greatest team in NFL history, throw in the “Super Bowl Shuffle” and you haven’t heard a thing from them since.? The last time the New York Mets won the World Series was right after the team produced “Get Metsmerized”.? One of the latest victims is the Large Hadron Collider, humanity’s most expensive and important science project that is
.? Blame it on this abomination:
If the Rapping Gods are listening, and I really, really hope they are this time, this latest horror show may save the printer industry.? Lyrics follow:
The following are the lyrics from the rap:
I bought a new printer for a bargin price
Printed out some pictures and they came out nice
Suddenly the warning light began to blink
Looked like my photo printer just ran out of ink
So I went to the store, money in hand
Looking for the cartridge of my printers brand
Found the one, but to my surprise
The colour cartridge cost more than I could buy
I found a member of staff
And said whats this?!
Your sign must be broke
Cos its too expensive
So doing his job, he double checked it
And confirmed the price of the ink cartridge
Calmly he says, as he turns
The price of your printer was as cheap as dirt
But when you need more ink thats when you pay
All the printer companies make their money this way!
When we gonna realize stupidity sells
Stop giving up your money to the ink cartels
Wake up everybody cos we’ve all been sold
Printer ink is more precious than gold
If you owned an ink guzzling car
A tank full of ink wouldn’t get you very far
Just one gallon of this printer food
Would cost more than a big barrel of crude
Cost you much more than a pound of gold
So when we gonna realise we’ve all been sold
*******, *****, ** and **** **
Are the real kingpins of the big ink set
But to save
The money you pay
Print economy mode every page
And to get more ink without breaking the bank
Dont go to the store for the brand name swank
Get a refill cartridge buy it online
Get good ink and save money and time
Economic mind through credit crunch time
Quality design with a price downsize!
(song mercifully ends)
Ugh.
You can’t rap. Please stop, for all of us.? Stop.
Stop.
