ThunderAnt Returns To The Feminist Bookstore

thumbnail icon: ThunderAnt Returns To The Feminist Bookstore

Guess who's back. Back again. Yup. Eminem is BACK! Relapse is slated for an early 2009 release. But also Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein are back with a new ThunderAnt video returning them to the cashier counter at the feminist bookstore. It's time to decide which of the CDs should be filed in the folk-Gaia section, and which should be filed in the garbage. I think the genius of these characters is that you either think you're watching a spot-on excoriation of new feminism's indulgences, or you think that you're watching a mirror.

Why do there have to be emergencies?

What did your best man say? I'd be interested in hearing this. I quote Kitchenza all the time. I was actually at a restraunt the other day and they started playing "Start Me Up" and I couldn't stop laughing, lol.

When it comes to lefty, cultivated types, Fred Armisen knows exactly what he is talking about. His Nicolas Fehn skit is the truth of graduate students. http://www.hulu.com/watch/11386/saturday-night-live-update-nicolas-fehn

I have that same print of a goat wearing a tie (over Fred's right shoulder). All of those prints are from berkleyillustration. What does that say about me?
