Yeah... I'm still bummed about the lack of a Rick Roll in this video. There should also be a Mario Paint part in there somewhere, too!

Also Kicesie the sex advice girl from here. I knew I had seen those rainbow socks somewhere before but couldn't place it.

I watched the video earlier but was at work so I had it on mute so I just listened to the song now. Sounds like Weezer, and better than anything off their last album.

I did and was going "wtf this was a waste of my time", then I realized I hadn't turned off safe search since I reformatted this system. Wow. Just wow.

Sorry, that's the wrong opinion, you are wrong. They are sellouts.

:p;)
Hahaha. I didn't like that song at all, but this one is way better. I guess their music lately isn't so bad, but I swear Rivers brain got cut out or something because lately the lyrics are just... fucking... BAD. Not that they were so complex and great before but good god.

Which, when considering that they're 25x better than what's on the radio today, isn't that bad.

Great video. Miss South Carolina was looking mighty fine. I'll definitely have to pick up their album when it's out. I haven't listened to Weezer since my high school days (90's).

never ever heard or seen anything about "charlie the unicorn"... there was something else on there that i'd never seen and isn't on the list... the chick with the rainbow socks... wtf is that from? i know it's not chris crocker because she's got longer hair than he does and she's got tits (2:05 if you wanna check for yourself).

I'm thinking computer generated + doubles. Remember their Buddy Holly video?
i don't know i think they could easily get the original people to take part in this video. the kung fu guy really looked like him

that video really needs a rick roll somewhere in there.

that was definitely afro ninja. i think the people in the video were the actual people.
