Tarzan no use article. No need conjunction. Tarzan use noun, verb!

What does your Netflix queue say about you and your friends? According to this Slate article, the picks at the bottom reflect the person you want to be, while your top selections reflect who you are. Given the fact that my top ten includes season 2.5 of Battlestar Galactica, Bloodrayne, and Silent Hill, I am apparently a trenchcoat-wearing Marilyn Manson fan who's mere days from a school-cafeteria shooting spree. But I really want to be a pretentious ass who watches lots of foreign flicks! So I'm screwed either way, really.

The Gawker media empire has launched it's new music blog, Idolator. Meh. Whatever. Big opening manifesto, no subsequent excitement. The Sound of Young America, on the other hand, is great. Go to the archive and download interviews with everyone from Fred Armisen and Patton Oswalt to Eddie Argos of Art Brut and Chuck Klosterman. Good stuff all.

Alright... it's been a while, but now it's time for...

ANDY KEATON'S INTERMITTENTLY OCCURRING FRIDAY VIDEO CORNER

First, a question... Whatever happened to Drink of the Week?? That was my favorite video show of all.

It's remarkable what you can find when you search for a single word on YouTube. Take "Tarzan" for example. You'll find, among other stuff, two seemingly unrelated clips featuring attractive (underage) girls lip-synching to a cheesy/bizarre first-person Tarzan-and-Jane club track. Like this. And this. I don't get it.

This clip has to be seen to be believed. [Thanks Gaël!]

Check out the Yeah Yeah Yeahs acoustic AOL Interface session.

Finally, the most insane clip of the month. Star Trek slash-fic video!

That oughta keep you going for the weekend. Adios, muchachos.
