Ugh, Soulja Boy iPhone App? Ugh, Soulja Boy iPhone App.

Oh finally, I am sick and tired of not being the one who decides when different parts of the mix come in and out (for drama). Why is this guy so bored of his own product? My favorite part is when he says "OK, this is starting to sound good," when all it sounds like is a worse version than the original song. If "all of your friends will be impressed" by this, whoops, you need new friends! You also need a new iPhone. Because I accidentally threw yours in the garbage can. My bad.

P.S. Sachar asks, "Why do they keep making ways for teenagers to be so annoying on the subway?" Gabe responds: "Good question? No, GREAT question. Increasing the annoyance-efficiency of teenagers on the subway is a cottage industry at this point."

"From the people who brought you Romplr, now presenting this helpful new grooming app for the iPhone. With helpful tips such as 1.) roll out of bed, and 2.) stick head in toilet. Now I can add 3.) flush toilet gurgle. Gurgle then gurgle gurgle. Splash. And that is how you too can paste your own filthy hair to your own fucking forehead."

I bet someone is going to get famous by using this app and start their own, even more pointless and awful music career.


It's the circle of :(, and it moves us all.

This is really a fun, next generation way for my head to interact with the bullets from my gun.

Excuse me? What video were you all watching?

Because I think you all failed to realise that the whole music application is just decoration for the true purpose of creating cool SOLAR EFFECTS!

It's like I'm the one true master of the sun!

Can't wait to leave my kids at the petting zoo and head straight to the Romplr booth at The 2010 Gathering...

Somebody should tell them that if you want to composite scenes in a video, red screens won't work.

"For reference, here is the original version of Soulja Boy's 'Turn My Swag On' ".

That sentence should only be allowed to follow: "There are many things that are truly awful about the world..."
like, say, in a book report about awfulness. Immediate A+! Otherwise, this sentence should not exist.

I like to watch this ad whilst imagining that the presenter's hands are nailed to the table in front of him, but he's been coerced (at gunpoint or the like) to complete the commercial deadpan.

He really starts to let the hysteria creep in in the last ten seconds, though...

I know MY musical "repertoire" would never be complete without such a hot track from Souljaboytellem. That's my opinion in a nutshell.

I'm not sure if you could have a whiter guy selling that app. My grandfather could do a better job selling axe deodorant body spray to bros.

oh, he wants those of us over 15 to believe that this is a "deep" app. because pretending to be a d.j. on your morning commute via your phone is something that will enhance your life, people.

I don't want to tell the people at Romplr (what?) how to run their company, or creative commune, or IM frisbee team, or whatever, but the next time they make an iPhone tutorial movie, they should hire someone who doesn't suffer from Index Finger Parkinson's.
