"Instant Fame" -- The Video to Skewer All Videos

Tay Zonday, the Chocolate Rainman, sparked a few million laughs with his deep throated display of music gone wrong. Now one viewer has decided he'd had enough of terrible Tay and all the other goofballs who've figured out how to film themselves being, well, themselves. It's parody paradise!


"Instant Fame," a short from Eric Schwartz aka Smooth-E, flips the switch on a myriad of idiots who've become popular by gettin' giggles from their idiotic self videos.

2. That's like a girl who sleeps with a guy who buys her an expensive dinner and says derogatory things about hookers. Dude, you are what you mock. Shut it.

4. When using the term "myriad", the words "a" and "of" should never immediately precede or follow.

6. This video is so hypocritical it's sad. The funny part is how he gets his instant fame from being the "executive producer". Sure, he's funny. Just don't let him shoot one of his videos at your house. You won't get paid, you won't get credit, you won't get squat. Just ask...me! Every time I see him on TMZ, I hope it helps him get rich. Maybe then he'll appreciate the "little people".

7. wow a guy mocking mockers, and him to the list of idiots, but put him on top because he thinks he's better than them

8. "nice marmot" (#5 above), myriad can properly be used as a noun, as in "a myriad of idiots." Myriad as an adjective is also proper, without "a" or "of". Oh, and this guy's video is stupid.

12. I liked Tay much better and judging from the reaction Tay got as opposed to this guy, I'd say a lot of other people liked Tay too. At least Tay was sorta cute in a mechanical sorta way (except he looks very eerily like a certain Mrs. Foster in a certain school my children attend; maybe that's why she's got that bug up her butt-looking like this dude instead of the older woman that she is).

13. Despite the hypocrisy, this video is hilarious. I can't think of his name, but that fake ADD kid that bounces around in his chair like flava flave on a saturday night pisses me off more than anything
