For this instance you are allowed to forward the video.

IMO, he is highly under estimated as an artist.

My wife's uncle is the person Weird Al describes in the video.


You can see a plethora of Weird Al's videos HERE

love it...I've had it out with a few people who take a polite request to "please do not forward me long emails that have been forwarded to you by others" as some sort of personal insult

Yep, Momma wins, hands down. Especially the endless forwards and emails. But, to offset that, the original link usually isn't there. Don't know if it is because she still uses (hanging my head in shame) AOL, or something she is doing.

I got fed up about a year ago and sent back a 1-line rely that simply said "UNSUBSCRIBE" and I got tons & tons of crap from my siblings about it - - how nasty & uncaring I was...

I welcome comments on any picture I post... Thanks.

Translation: We don't have the nerve to do that and resent that you do.

I just started sending links to snopes every time my mother would send me some legend or hoax... She's stopped sending me those at least (the last time I did it, she sent back "You're no fun.").

She still sends me every joke and inspirational thing that strikes her... including those that are embedded in .DOC and .PPS files... really, Mom? You opened that on your computer and forwarded it to me? No wonder your computer has every bit of shareware. spyware, and virus known to mankind.

LOL! Excellent.

I've actually had some harsh-love types with my mom about this... and it worked for awhile... but then, slowly... one by one.. more and more emails started to come in.

I find I now have to exercise this about once a year to keep her in check.

My MIL...but I love her too much to tell her to stop.

My neighbor? Yep...only I don't think the video mentions chain emails that threaten bad luck for 5 gajillion years. Does it?
