“Shutterbugs” video, you guys:
Big Boi would probably be kind of a bad dad, I guess. But still. What he would lack in fishing trips and games of catch and teaching me how to shave and nightly bedtime stories (things I still definitely do with my dad all the time for sure), he would make up for in being AN AWESOME RAPPER WHO MAKES FUN VIDEOS OF HIS COOL SONGS JUST IN TIME FOR THE SUMMER. And even if he was on the road all the time, and forgot to call me on my birthday because the strip club was having a 2-for-1 deal in the Champagne Room, I bet he would still be proud of me. I love you, Big Dad! (Via TheAwl.)

Isn’t that a rip off of the Hostel 2 movie poster?
Gabe saying he wishes Big Boi was his dad is like me saying I wish notsewfast was my dad.
I wish Jessica Alba was my girlfriend.
If I were your dad, we would have hilarious banter as you carried me in a baby bjorn. We’d pretty much star in our own sitcom: My Baby Dad.
That is a sitcom I now want to exist.
I actually imagine it looking more like this:

Careful! Idle joking like this is how Two and a Half Men was conceived…
See, I pictured it more like this:
“Quaid, start the reactorrr…”
Notsewfast being a MUCH better-looking and overall less wrinkly and mutant-like baby, of course!
I’m imagining this guy having sex now…
Shutterbugs was my fav Rodney Dangerfield and Jonathan Brandis movie.
Shutterbug was my favorite Veruca Salt song.
Shutterbugs was my favorite Human Giant sketch.
Music would be a completely different thing today if everyone were using vocoders instead of autotune. It would be much, much better!
I agree. Vocoders rule. Autotune can suck it.
I’m not convinced that isn’t autotune. It’s *definitely* not a talkbox, as suggested in the video with the tube-thingy in the mouth. Could possibly be a vocoder, but that would be with a mic and not a tube.
ok professor music technology. why exactly is it not a talkbox? they can be used with synthesizers as well as guitar, you know..

Gabe, don’t lie, Big Boi IS your dad.
Does that mean Big Boi is, like, 625 years ol*-jumped off a bridge-*
looks like someone saw the heidi montag video at the point of a life-changing discovery…
Not only do I adore this video, but I super-love it whenever people call it the “clink”.
That’s what they call it in the ‘jects.
I would prefer Andre 3000 to be my dad since he wears cool outfits
And when I’m like daddy I want to dress up like a velociraptor for the first day of school he can’t really say no since he wears crazy things all the time
clever girl!
Stay out of the tall grass!
Now THAT sounds like some crazy enigmatic bit of wisdom a parent would tell a child.
they DO move in herds!
Pokémon rules, if anyone wants to battle or trade h1t m33h ^
Because Professor Oak doesn’t want you to go in the tall grass without a–never mind
The real Shutterbugs approve.
not to be an idiot. but guy on the right? who is that?
That’s Aziz Ansari on the left and Rob Huebel on the right, bird, my friend
thanks! i know him from I Love You Man. as Tevin. ew/yay
So deep was my disappointment when I realized this video was not that.
Is that Franklin on bass?! Nice to see him getting work after AD.
he sure needs the money to support those children all over town…
“All black puppets look the same to me” wwwest.
Very cool. Very fun. Very dad.
Big Boi: Hey, is the set from Metallica’s “Unforgiven II” video still available?
Producer: I’m sure we can dig it up.
Big Boi: Nice. Now get me the special effects guys from TRON and some video hoes. Let’s shoot this bitch.
i have this suspicion that this whole thing was written, recorded, shot, and edited all in the same day.
producer: what? tron? puppets? your body keeps exploding? mr. boi, that makes no sense.
big boi: there’s no time to make sense! i have my kids softball game at eight! let’s go!
Big Boi: Can we borrow those Kobe and LeBron puppets from the Nike commercials?
Producer: Uhhhh. No.
Big Boi: Damn!
(I think it’s just “Shutterbug” singular, but it’s hard not to pluralize it when it’s the FUNNEST THING EVER)
cf. “Slips Ands Slides”
I believe it’s actually “Shutterbugg.” But yes. Singular.
Top Notch! These ‘hip-hop’ artistias might ‘catch’ on. Uh, I’m ‘down-wit-it’?
Ahem.
(adjusts cravat, consults pocket-watch, checks barometric pressure)
This song.
Is. Awesome.
It really is.
so much so.
So, since we’re talking about Big Boi and his alterego (?) Sir Lucius Leftfoot, I might as well post Janelle Monáe’s video for “Tightrope”, because I bring it up in real life no matter how tangentially it is connected to the current subject, because I am so in love with it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwnefUaKCbc
Man, I can figure this out I just need a little help:

Way to hustle, Chris Trash! Up top!
My favorite parts of this song are the “buggabuggabuggabuggabuggbugg” under it and also that guitar thing that goes bwewdewbwewdewbwenewnewbwewdwew and also “or bring ‘em BACK TO LIFE, BACK TO REALITY”. Those are my favorite parts. Okay, bye
Is anyone else thirsty for some Crown Royal? I wish I could figure out why…
“I Love you Big dad!” i find this rather funny as i called my grandpa ‘Big Dad’ until I was about 14, and there can only be one! i guess Big Boi is pretty awesome…but my grandpa is 70 and still kicking ass! Ya burnt boi!
its sad franklin wasnt available to perform in this video ( *funky voice – COME ON!)
