WHY GOD CREATED YOUTUBE™: Don't Copy That Floppy


Courtesy of Anonymous A comes this vintage slice of ineptitude, a "rap" "music video" written by a lawyer to try to get kids to stop copying software. The use of stretched Arial, a Corinthian column as a tv stand, and Max Headroom-era video effects place this squarely in 1992's lap, and if you can stomach the first 3 minutes and 14 seconds you'll get to see a handful of programmers (and the lawyer who wrote the "rap") talk about how video games will go bye-bye forever if you keep copying them. I know, it's difficult to get through even the first minute of this without wanting to tear your own eyes out, but it's worth it, trust me.

Truly, this is why God created YouTube.
