Gay joke? Since when is sucking schlong an exclusively gay activity? Crackheads love it too. And that ain't gay, that's just a bargain.
-
Oh please. 69 is visual reference to an oral sex position where both partners pleasure each other by lying parallel to one another. Think of the circles in the number as their heads, and the tails as their bodies. She's shoving a sexual innuendo into the book title. You may have already known that but just missed the reference... though sorry if you're young and that scarred you, but I'm blunt and had a bitter, unmonitored childhood on the internet. (I was approximately seven when I discovered scat and watersports. FURRY scat and watersports.)

I work in a bookstore, and I love this song. To be honest, I haven't read Bradbury since high school-- but I'm definitely not the only nerd girl to have nurtured several crushes on elderly authors*. Who cares if she knows who Bradbury is? It's a universal idea. *My longest was Daniel J. Boorstin, because nonfiction stays harder for longer~
-
yeah... relax... some preparation H might help
-
A big missed opportunity for a "R is for Rocket" joke.
-
I do love it, actually. It's Better than anything Britney Spears ever tried.
-
That wasn't a "gay joke", retard. Just pointing out the obvious that you're obsessed. I can't believe your hatred over a 2 minute pop song. You should be thrilled that someone wrote a song about him at all. What's that? YOU wrote a song about him? Well, I eagerly await to hear it. Oh. You didn't. In that case, take your Ritalin and STFU.
-
My bad, I thought he died. My mistake, but that doesn't change the fact that you still want to blow him. Lighten up, douche.
-
Ray Bradbury the greatest Sci-Fi writer in history? Asimov and Heinlein might want to have a word with her about that.
-
"Nice lookin?" She's the definition of nerd-baiting butterface. Doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the song.
-
I wanna read, ALL NIGHT LONG!! Seriously though, that was hot lol.
-
Or, that could be his actual name. Like "Anonymous T. Nelson, Anony to his friends"
-
Real girls? Bah! I heard the don't even sing about Ray Bradbury!
-
Ummm...hello? It's a quite nice looking girl with great tits singing a kind of funny song....and yet people are getting all wound up about it!? Bloody hell guys - turn off the PC and go for a walk or something. You know; get some fresh air, look at real girls, that sort of thing. Fuck's sake....
-
I like the video; it's cute, it's funny, and for the time allotted to it, was entertaining. With the trolls making their way through this thread, though, this post has achieved full fun-entropy. I read through the posts, and this is where fun just stops. Seriously, add one more troll and it's freaking David the Gnome territory.
-
Decent looking girl, incredible rack, medicore song with a few funny lines... Overall, this is made of win.
-
Preach it, sister. This is how I feel about Carl Sagan.
-
Yeah, and she probably decided "Harlan, Darlin'" was a little too country and understated. Of course, she'd have more things to use: Demon With A Glass Handjob, Orgasm on the Edge of Forever, etc. I'll even give her a line to use: "I've got a wet-on for Harlan He's even fucked James Cameron"
-
Damn, I really hope Ray Bradbury sees this before he dies. Oh shit, just checked his Wikipedia page, and Sunday's his birthday. Imagine that, go through life as a prolific and successful sci-fi writer, and then on your ninetieth birthday you're shown a video of a hot young 20-something singing about how badly she wants to jump you. He'd feel like such a badass.
-
Favorictis dumbestist postist everist
-
And you clearly have a lightning rod up your butt. That what you do when you can't sell 'em?
-
I'm guessing she was going for a living legend, as both of those authors are sadly deceased, and she may have wanted to avoid necrophilia references. I figure even if she hasn't read his complete catalog, to actually do a song like this, she has to be kinda nerdy.
-
I've said it before and I'll say it again... geeky girls are the hottest girls. Velma gave me my first stiffy.
-
If it's UCB, then chances are it's on the level as far as geekiness goes(even if it's not the funniest thing they've ever done). I miss the hell out of their show on Comedy Central--it's the only sketch show they've ever featured that could begin to hold a candle to Kids In The Hall.
-
Also, you gotta love that choreography during the last two choruses.
-
Really, all I was thinking she needed a better bra, those things were swinging around so much it hurt my back just looking at them...
-
Is Fahrenheit 69 the temperature at which necrophiliacs burst into flaming passion?
-
Of course it doesn't measure up to Bradbury's descriptions: it's gang-infested and only marginally more interesting than every other Chicago suburb(the ravine, however, is awesome). But it's my home, and we loves us some RB hereabouts.
-
Moron. You clearly haven't read Bradbury. Half of these posts are quoting him.
-
You mean a *less* mainstream sci-fi author, right? Because everyone knows who Bradbury is - I had to read three (maybe four) of his novels going through middle school/high school. Farenheit, Illustrated Man, The Martian Chronicles, Dandelion Wine, and Something Wicked. Okay, five novels in seven years. It's Clark and Dick who are not mainstream (not that I love them any less). Had to discover them on my own (and I didn't find out about PKD until I was 21 or 22).
-
This parody song is funny and catchy, I'll be singing it out loud for the rest of the night, damn it.
-
Thank you, yes-it's another one of those double standards; if a girl is geeky she can't be sexy, because if a girl is sexy she's not really geeky (she's just faking it for attention/money/her boyfriend) QED. The video itself is amusing, I can picture several of my friends (of either gender) making something similar. In fact it's probably just a matter of time before one of my friends who has an almost unhealthy love for Harlan Ellison does.
-
Agreed. Bruce Campbell = Awesome. I retract my Old Spice and substitute Axe Body Spray. An entire can and a half!
-
Funny or not, I'm showin' up at this chick's next gig dressed as Master Ray. Hell, he's almost 90 (next week), and I'm only 62. I oughtta get SOME sort of action! I know, I know, probably "police action", Ha!!
-
I have a stack of mylar covered B.P.R.D right here for you.
-
That's why he isn't clever enough to even come up with a user name
-
Hey leave Old Spice out of this, I have been bathing in it since before Bruce Campbell made it awesome
-
And the UCB used to be funny.
-
Bradbury is my fave author. I heard him speak a couple years ago at Comic Con. At one point he said to everyone in the hall, "You are all my children. You are all my bastard children!" I think, with his sense of humor, Bradbury would dig this. I love all things Bradbury, from Something Wicked This Way Comes to Martian Chronicles to The October Country to A Graveyard for Lunatics. To all the dudes crying "Poser!": Would you have cared if it was a man saying how he'd like to fuck Ursula Le Guin? Would you be demanding proof of every Le Guin novel he'd read?? Yeah. Thought not. There are chicks in your clubhouse, get over it or get out.
-
You lucky bastard. Although, I doubt Waukegan could really live up to Bradbury's descriptions. He seems to have keyed into a very particular childlike vision of the place wherein normal things are lush and magical. I was lucky enough to hear Doug Bradley (Pinhead of the Hellraiser series) read the passage about the ravine aloud, and it made me shudder with delight and dread. So yeah, jealousy for you and affection for Bradbury. Don't know if I'd feel right shaking my boobies in his name, though :\
-
Oh, I love the smell of misogyny in the morning! Smells like sour milk and Old Spice with a hint of rancid lemon.
-
YOU! You TERRIFIED me by making me think that one of my favorite authors had kicked the bucket!!! You should feel terrible D:
-
As another geeky girl, I second all of this, including the comics. But I'd like to add, doing on top of Superman comics is also right out. And if you have lots of Hellboy I'll get naked faster than you can say, "I'll be in my bunk."
-
Obvious troll is obvious.
-
Check and mate
-
Wow you have a lot of weird aggression about this song. You have some sort of history with this chick or something?
-
I literally don't know what to think of this. I live and grew up in Waukegan, IL--Bradbury's hometown and the model for Greentown, the setting of Dandelion Wine. Bradbury is a living God here. I was raised readng his books, walking the same streets, even hiking the very ravine that shows up in his stories. Ergo, I don't know whether to applaud such an outpouring of affection, or decry the perversion of his name and works. Seriously, this has messed up my head worse than 100 ComicsNix stories. Help me!
-
<<If this girl is a fake geek girl, wouldn't she have chosen a more mainstream sci-fi author? Like Phillip K. Dick or Arthur C. Clarke?>> She is propably saving phil for the follow up, Titled: "I want to lick, Phillip K's Dick" or something ^^
-
That little Medusa had parts of the Very Old Geek turning to stone in a rather hurried fashion. Definitely NSFW!! To quote Sgt. Hulka in "Stripes" to the REST of ya's, "LIGHTEN UP, Francis!".
-
I don't like to think of the legions of fangirls that Gaiman has. It's too mindboggling. Then again I got so many Sandman posters and shit up in my room... I'm wondering if maybe I don't want to fuck him myself.. geez...
-
Yeah, that was a nice little bit. Though really I love both authors.. so either chick is fine by me!
-
I coulda used more cowbell...
-
"Houston, we have a THROBlem..." Gotta love that. I may make it my SMS alert...
-
Fahrenheit 451 is one of my favorite books. Though I think Fahrenheit 69 might top that... Though, girl, I am disappoint that there was no mention of A Sound of Thunder which I loved since I was a kid. Plus it lends itself so easily to a sex joke, making her scream like a sound of thunder or something.
-
I presume that said comics should be bagged and boarded for...protection?
-
Amen.
-
I got it Yoggie... She was taking a number in the title and substituting '69' on purpose so that she could say she wanted to '69' with him. THat should be enough for you to type into Google and figure out from here. I don't want to be responsible for ruining your mind if you turn out to be 15 or something...
-
Boobs win. That's all you need to know.
-
A few points: A) there are not nearly enough songs about classic sci-fi authors. Beats the shit out of another "I'm so wonderful" song. B)It's in my head and I can't get it out. GET OUT OF MY HEAD! C) Am I the only one who thinks the song needs a cowbell? D)I like the single entendres.
-
What an interesting conflation of copulation and literary interpretation, hmmmmmm.
-
STFU!
-
I approve the fuck out of this video.
-
Wow straight nerds will find any girl who seems into "nerd stuff" attractive based on this video. Chick isn't hot and punny use of book titles is pretty lame (as is the wanna be punky backup band).
-
Okay, seriously guys, this has to end. First of all: I'm a huge Bradbury fan and this is one of the most awesome things I've ever seen. This describes exactly how I feel. But why is it that everytime an attractive girl expresses some form of geekiness she's, according to you guys, a fake?! Can't girls be allowed to be geeky and sexy at the same time?! Guess what? When we dress up as slutty sci-fi characters at conventions, it's because we actually like those characters. Also - we do this because we want to make mad, insatiable amounts of love to you right on top of your comic book collections. (Unless you like the wrong comics, personally I wouldn't want to mate on top of Spiderman comics, but if you're a DC fan and have plenty of Batman comics, I'd totally do you. Deadpool from Marvel would be fine too.) If this girl is a fake geek girl, wouldn't she have chosen a more mainstream sci-fi author? Like Phillip K. Dick or Arthur C. Clarke?
-
There was no flub... it was deliberate. "69" If I have to explain it to you, well I'm just not going to. I'll leave that to one of the guys.
-
To be honest, I pick up on the vibe that alpha invictus is talking about. I realize that it's supposed to be a "fun pop song video" and all, and I thought it was pretty catchy. What I think alpha invictus is picking up on is that there is definitely a trend starting of (arguably) nerdy girls making sexually suggestive humor music videos, and I have to agree...it does feel pretty targeted. This may sound a little harsh, but I think that the primarily male nerd population has been so eager to promote fairness and equality to girls with nerdy interests within the community over the past few years, that we are overlooking the way that a nerd-girl niche can be exploited and used as a marketing tool. This video definitely has a twinge of that.
-
i give the girl in this video props for having tastes in legendary authors she would love to fuck as a joke since there is no way that vidoe would ever become a reality.ever. though she seemed to goof up on farenheit 451. other then that little flub and Ray himself not making a cameo in the video kind of liked it.
-
Like what? It's a two minute song about fucking. For all we know she's a huge Bradbury fan... but it's still a two minute comedy song about fucking. If you don't like the song, say so. Perhaps you didn't find it funny. Perhaps the idea of a song about fucking Ray Bradbury just doesn't amuse you. But that you make a MORAL stance that this comedian hasn't proven her Bradbury 'cred', is just comical. I find you ridiculous.
-
Yeah, I got a kick out of that, too.
-
Oh, is that what you're doing? Because you're not very good at it. Better practice, practice, practice dude!
-
Love how she slaps the Vonnegut girl at the end.
-
This is brilliant, and very silly.
-
Who, me? Ahhhh, I wasn't hungry anyways.
-
Thank you. I sincerely mean that.
-
Open letter to TR commentators: Do not feed the troll.
-
I know you've heard it a thousand times before. But it's true — hard work pays off. If you want to be good, you have to practice, practice, practice. If you don't love something, then don't do it.
-
I really liked it. Clever and catchy. Her boobs were awesome, quite good lyrics too. ...I'm not sure what alpha invictus' problem is. Maybe he hates Fun. it's a freakin' pop song... get over it.
-
Guess that makes Drappelfeld homophobic and ignorant.
-
I'm being ironic. Don't interrupt a man in the midst of being ironic, it's not polite.
-
Why should I giver her credit for "even thinking about Ray Bradbury"? You can smell from the video that she has no interest in Bradbury. It was just picked because the video's creator figured they could make a viral video by mixing tits and an arbitrarily chosen nerd icon. There was probably a "Fuck Me" roulette wheel with other easily rhymable names like Kurt Vonnegut and George Orwell on it.
-
huhuhhuuh, you said "came" huhuhuh!!!
-
She doesn't have to write her master's thesis on Bradbury, but she needs to demonstrate that she has read something other than his Wikipedia page. Clever or interesting wordplay would be appreciated, too.
-
those things had me sucked in like a tractor beam. it was the only thing stared at the entire time. i can barely remember a song playing
-
Wow. I'm glad I lived to see the day nerds get to be jaded hipster humorless douche bags, assuming something is "targeted" at them. It was a cute little song and funny. Not sure what the motivations are for it, but if it gets some kid to pick up a Bradbury book and read, then yay. And isn't it about time "fail" gets retired? There's got to be something on 4Chan that's replaced it by now.
-
What did you want in a two minute pop song full of nothing but sex jokes? A detailed analysis of "The Illustrated Man" followed by a verse on how "The Fog Horn" should have more faithfully been adapted into a movie? His beef with Micahel Moore over "Farenheit 9/11"? Would those have made the song more acceptable to you?
-
DAMN! I see a trend starting. this is pretty damn funny in that crazy way only fans will hate to pieces. what will 'have me for your next threesome Neil Gaiman' look like?
-
I was just ticking off the seconds until a "Something Wicked" joke came up...
-
//"She demonstrates only the vaguest familiarity with the writings of Ray Bradbury."// Did you see a special 'extended cut' where she actually tries to talk about his work or something? It's a song for Christ's sake, you're limited by what rhymes and fits into the pentameter, there isn't room for a dissertation on Martian Chronicles or how 'Something Wicked...' kept her awake all night when she was a kid. So dismount form your high horse and look around. It's a song, it's meant to be funny, and it's pretty damned cute in the process. At least she's not singing about the 'Twilight' saga or pointing out that Anne Rice seems to write a story, realize that it's too short, then adds about 75 pages in the middle that bog everything down and seems to go nowhere. Give the girl credit for even thinking about Bradbury...
-
Obvious fanservice. Don't care.
-
Oh, look at that. Drappelfed made a gay joke. I bet he thinks he's clever. I know the site is for fun, dickweed. But the only fun to be found in a video that patronizes science fiction fans so badly is in mocking it.
-
Ray Bradbury being dead is probably news to Ray Bradbury, especially since he's just given an interview to the LA Times: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/herocomplex/2010/08/ray-bradbury-is-sick-of-big-government-our-country-is-in-need-of-a-revolution-.html
-
Dude, chill. This is a site for fun, and that song/video was made for the same reason. She'll never get to fuck Bradbury since he's dead. You, however, sound like you're still sucking his schlong.
-
Nice try, but it's a fail. The song is not clever. She demonstrates only the vaguest familiarity with the writings of Ray Bradbury. I doubt she's read anything other than his Wikipedia page. She is just trying to become popular with nerds because she has tits. Nothing wrong with that, necessarily, but pretending to care about Mr. Bradbury when you're really just whoring yourself out is insulting both to nerd and to the sci-fi legend you're singing about. Next time put a little effort into it. That goes for you, too, Topless Robot guy.
-
true dat
-
That's what I thought the entire time =O Decent song, too
-
this chick's tits are rockin. that's a great set.
-
only me thinking about a FFF whit bradbury, asimov and clark called...
-
Other than the Space/Love part, that was great. Too bad Ray himself didn't make an appearance at the end smoking a cigarette.
-
And Arthur C. Clarke kicked it a bit too soon too...
-
Fuck and Yes!
