    What?

    First I saw this:

    Then I just got sad and somewhat confused. If this is what passes for kid's TV, I'm sterilizing myself.

    I don't think that was intended for children.

    Oh jeez...this has been around for a l-o-n-g time and was just a novelty song music video. The guy also did a novelty song about folks from the Indian Subcontinent under the name of "Dr. Bombay" or something like that.

    Definitely not childrens' fare...was never intended to be.

    That is not for children. I personally do not take offense to the video. Although I can see how it might offend some.

    It reminds me of weird Al Yankovick. For those who do not remember weird Al, he would take a popular song and rewrite it. For example Madonna's "Like a Virgin" was changed to "Like a Surgeon cutting for the very first time."

    Yeah, I didn't really find anything there that offended me - apologies to those who may have found it so; I got the idea it was a children's show from the youtube comments. Shows me how dumb it is to believe the Internet! ;)

    I believe the term "EEEEEEEK!!!!" about covers it...
