Yeah, that’s the song I am referring to. To be clear I was not claiming the Kid Rock song was “pretty good”.

That video caused me to do a little digging and from what I can tell at least the Monster Truck band doesn't seem like they're full on MAGA. Reading this article the lead singer just seems like a bit of a dumb stoner

This song is even more poignant with the animation:

MrBeast recreated Squid Game and had 456 people compete for $456k. It's impressive he was able to get this put together in 40 days.

I don't actually know who MrBeast is but my kids sent me the video because we all watched the show.

This kind of advertising needs to make a comeback:

Tim Heidecker is doing a livestream parodying Joe Rogan. It’s spot on.

That was pretty fun, other than the blatant advertising midway through.

It cost $3.5 million to set up. Someone had to pay for it.

Ya, I was thinking that before the ad hit...this looks expensive! So I get it. I'm just not used to watching videos with that intense of advertising. Felt like a sledgehammer to the head!

Yeah, I did not download the mobile game so even with a sledgehammer it didn't work.

Though I did temporarily subscribe to his channel for the chance at the $10k. That part worked. Temporarily.

I use a browser extension that automatically skips through youtube sponsored content. SponsorBlock. Try that bad boy out.

That video was fun; I said after watching Squid Game that it'd actually be a fun thing to watch (apart from killing people).

I totally would have taken the $4,000 and ran

They should have left out the junior high drama class quality acting with that "scuffle" at the end. That was so cringe. In fact anyone making viral videos should leave out any kind of combatants. It's the hardest thing in acting to get right, and ends up looking just stupid when amateurs try to add it in.
