New Major Lazer Video!

I'm probably the only person around here who likes Major Lazer (and it's well documented that they confuse the hell out of Dave) but I figured everyone (except maybe Shlara) would enjoy their latest video. The premise: take a handful of beautiful young women, put them in skimpy-to-nonexistent outfits, and project a laser show onto them while they smoke blunts. Sort of like a dancehall version of the Exploding Plastic Inevitable only with better looking people and less dangerous drugs. And more sideboob.

Not too much side boob. But is there ever too much?

And almost spit out my OJ this morning when local news mentioned 'Griffins' as a possible new name for the NFL team based in Washington. The state isn't big enough for two pantless griffin teams.

TR said...

There's a "swallowing" joke regarding OJ Simpson in there somewhere...

Mark said...

Z- I expect you to rant at TJ for snubbing you in the NBA fantasy league.

TR said...

Unrelated question on a similarly sophomoric level:

Anybody know the origin of the phrase "bodacious tatas"? It came up and all the guys I work with agreed that we immediately associate the word tatas w/ the word bodacious, but we're not sure why.

One of your 80's fanatics must know the answer to this.

Squeaky said...

The word, tatas, has been around forever but they did not become bodacious until Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.

TR said...

Excellent. Thanks much.

Not to be confused with Bodacious Joe E. Tata.

TR said...

This video is better when the sound is turned down. All the way down.

Dave said...

i probably should stop watching that, considering i'm in a public school.

TR said...

Correction on the quote - while bodacious was oft-used in B&T's Excellent Adventure, the phrase came from Officer and Gentleman, by Gere's sidekick.

"Look at them bodacious set of tatas."

This is a sub-optimal use of my time on a very busy day.

You need a subwoofer to truly appreciate this song. And an appreciation for rhythm over melody.

It is impossble for me to really get mad at Teedge, but why the hell did he invite me to a EPL fantasy league but not the GTB hoops fantasy league? I don't like soccer but I like basketball and I'm bad at fantasy sports in general so I'm a perfect patsy for anyone's fantasy NBA league. I'm guaranteed to subsidize someone else's victory.

Mark said...

I didn't update my lineup after the all star game last season. New year though, rededicating myself to being mildly interested in the NBA fantasy league.

T.J. said...

yahoo sent out invites, more than once, to any email address associated with last year's league

zman, either you have a super awesome spam filter or you just ignored them

zman said...

I wasn't in last year's league. There was a league last year?!

T.J. said...

poor z

we snubbed him not once but twice

T.J. said...

you can take over my team

it will be zman and the t(eej)eam

TR said...

Take a hint, Zman.

rob said...

my stealth team looks nice

Squeaky said...

Zman, just take over my team.

Clarence said...

Squeaky has a team???

Clarence said...

Hey, Rob, good luck to your Red Sox tonight. First World Series Game 6 for them in a while. May this one turn out far better than the last. Or exactly the same, just for the marvel of it.

zman said...

Andre the Giant has a posse.

zman said...

I imagine that everyone who isn't a Sawks fan is pulling for the Cardinals tonight.

rob said...

i dunno. z. they're a pretty lovable bunch of dipshits. and clarence, i'd be happier with a 1975 game 6 reprise.

Squeaky said...

No team, just trolling.

zman said...

They are only lovable to new englanders.

rob said...

that's silly. but i can see how the dropkick murphys could annoy non-sox fans in this context.

zman said...

Dropkicks are indisputably bad and so is their music. The Sawks's beards and unbuttoned unis are a bridge too far to sloppiness. Pedroia looks like an Aerdale. Ortiz has the only fly beard. I admire their scrappiness but that's about it.

Lumpy said...

C'mon z. Victorino's cheese is acceptable. But no one matches the stache on Joyce behind the plate.

zman said...

Salltalamacchia's beard looks like the painting from today's sentence of Dave.

zman said...

I also feel snubbed by Mark, this video is right in his wheelhouse (tattoos, blunts, beats) but no love.

rob said...

z's got an interesting blend of neediness and dickheadedness going this evening.

Lumpy said...

Glad your not on radio silence tonite rob

rob said...

trying to distract myself from this pounding heart, lump

zman said...

That's why our guys snub me.

zman said...

Our = you

Lumpy said...

You and me both squirrel.

Mark said...

I haven't checked the video yet, Z. Long day at the salt mine.

Congrats Red Sox fans. Better team.

Now that that's over with, Carl Pelini was fired for illegal drug use?!? Please, tell me more.

zman said...

Shaq just did an ad supporting Chris Christie for governor. I'm stunned. Not just because of his sweater.

zman said...

John Lackey sounds like he has a concussion.

Lumpy said...

Hi mark :-)

Lumpy said...

Rob. Been thinking about your opening day post watching the game with your grandmother. Took me back to the eighties and watching with my grandmother. What a year!!

rob said...

wooooo! fuck and yes!

zman said...

John Henry just used the phrase "shout out." Almost as surprising as Shaq's ad.

rob said...

just coming here to comment on that. he's endearingly clueless for a financial savant. or maybe just clueless.

rob said...

woke my daughter up to watch the final out. pretty excellent dadness, i think.

zman said...

He's scared of smoke too.

Lumpy said...

Well done Rob. My dad woke me up for the end of game 6 86. This is much better

Lumpy said...

Zman. Ran into John Henry on a ramp in Fenway a few years back. He's a pencil neck geek with no so social skills but he cleans up on the commodity markets. Just ask the losers in the barings bank collapse

rob said...

hello, gheorghies. also, world champs, bitches! i've had a reasonably spectacular last 10 years from a sporting perspective: 3 world series titles, 3 ncaa football national championships, a stanley cup, 4 fantasy football titles, and 2 w&m trips to the caa championship game. pretty decent little run.

Clarence said...

That's actually incredibly neat.

rob said...

chip tell and the late mike edwards would be proud of you.

Danimal said...

2 caa championship games...included in that barrage of dickishness.... can someone help me out here?

Clarence said...

This is why people fucking hate short people.

Danimal said...

yes. thank you.

TR said...

With that beard, John Lackey looked like he could be starring in the Merchant of Venice.

Lumpy said...

you forgot to mention the saints winning the superbowl?

Mark said...

Morning, Lumpy. Congrats again.

Z- As our resident tennis aficionado, I was wondering if you'd seen the Jimmy Connors 30 for 30. I thought it was solid. Even my wife liked it and she wouldn't know Jimmy Connors if he walked it our house and kicked the dog. Which doesn't seem totally unlikely (the dog kicking part). He's still a dick it seems.

zman said...

Whatever, I have more wives than you.

I tried to watch the Connors 30 for 30 but instead the 2004 Sawks segment was on. Sickening. I watched a ton of the 1991 Open including most of Connors' matches. The Krickstein match was mind blowing to me at the time and it still is. Connors was 39, like me today, while Krickstein was 24 and a top 10 player at the time (he beat Agassi in the first round that year). If anything Connors' win is even more ridiculous to me now. I played an hour and a half of tennis last night and my calves are killing me. Connors played five sets at the Open late at night at age 39. And then he won the next match a day later. Insane.

TR said...

I remember watching the Connors-Krickstein match. I was a senior in high school and was fired up for Connors as the aging underdog. Then I remember him yelling "you are an abortion" at a line judge in his next match and thought he was kind of a dick. The TV audio feed caught it clearly. Not sure if I'm remembering that precisely. Did the doc hit on that at all, or just talk about his general douchiness?

Classy guy.

rob said...

new post up. some of you won't like it. sorry.

not really sorry.
