A song by Weird Al Yankovic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9qYF9DZPdw. 2 minutes 51 seconds. Lyrics and detailed explanation: https://genius.com/Weird-al-yankovic-white-and-nerdy-lyrics.
I’m just too white and nerdy
Really, really white and nerdy
It’s a parody of Charmillionaire’s Ridin’ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtwJvgPJ9xw):
They see me rollin’, they hatin’
Patrollin’ and tryna catch me ridin’ dirty…
I particularly like at 24 seconds, where Key and Peele lock the car door… of an open convertible. Also Donny Osmond’s dancing is excellent:
And the fake Trivial Pursuit card at 1:10 (for about 1 second):
And good news from Fix the News:
“The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced.” Bill Gates has announced plans to give away nearly $200 billion between now and 2045, after which the Gates Foundation will permanently close its doors. In a wide-ranging interview with the New York Times (gift link), he explains why this is the time to go all in given Trump’s assault on global health, the promise of more lifesaving innovations in the near future, and the potential impact of AI.
