ROFL.
Sad Hipster is Sad.
March 15, 2011 at 4:39 pm
I’d be sad, too, if I had to listen to that voice.
There must be people who don’t mind flat and nasal or she wouldn’t be so popular.
March 15, 2011 at 4:51 pm
It seems like she’s so popular because she falls into the nebulous category “so awful it’s fantastic.” The fact that she’s also tarted up like some kind of derpy Drag Queen Pageant Baby is just icing on the cake.
March 16, 2011 at 5:03 pm
Derpy Drag Queen Pageant Baby. That’s catchy. I’m going to start making a beer that’s ten times more obscure than FourLoko and ironic than PBR and that’s what I’ll call it. It’s going to be just awful.
March 15, 2011 at 4:54 pm
Those same people must not have a problem with her godawful lyrics.
March 15, 2011 at 6:06 pm
But … but … the sheer lyrical genius …

(Yes I’m pretty sure this is a joke but still.)
March 15, 2011 at 5:16 pm
OMG, I was thinking the same thing – the way she says Friday is so freaking awful! I want to jam a pencil in my ear….
March 15, 2011 at 5:43 pm
she’s POPULAR? I thought everyone just liked to laugh at her.
March 16, 2011 at 1:42 pm
Does anyone else hear “fried egg”?
March 15, 2011 at 7:05 pm
He’s just sad because he was a fan before she was a big SELLOUT.
March 15, 2011 at 4:14 pm
Sad Hipster is Sad. Bad Song is Bad.
Perfect marriage. <3
March 15, 2011 at 4:14 pm
Ab Fab!
March 15, 2011 at 4:16 pm
NEVA GONNA GIVE YOU UP…
yeah, that’s how I feel right now.
March 15, 2011 at 4:26 pm
A rickroll would have been welcomed.

Just so you guys know.
March 15, 2011 at 7:55 pm
holy shit
March 15, 2011 at 11:54 pm
Overwhelmed by the awesome!
March 16, 2011 at 4:31 am
Oh, wow!
March 15, 2011 at 5:08 pm
Amen, sister. I actually had a website rickroll me while they were down for service. I felt so used…
March 15, 2011 at 4:18 pm
Man, Sad Hipster actually improves the quality of that music video. That’s either sad or awesome.
March 15, 2011 at 4:21 pm
There’s more of them:

What the hell is going on there?! Is this for real?????
March 15, 2011 at 4:24 pm
Jeezus Crust, I was forced to watch that “music” “video” this morning..
Glad to see she made it to the wonderful land of Regretsy
March 15, 2011 at 4:26 pm
Do you know how BAD a singer has to be when even Auto-Tune can’t make her sound on-key?
March 15, 2011 at 6:13 pm
My husband said the exact same thing about that wretched child. Carol Sagan was TALKING and he sounded supa-fly auto-tuned, but he was kind of supa-fly-supa-nova already.
March 15, 2011 at 4:26 pm
She’s actually able to sing only three notes, and that’s how the genius tune came about.
March 15, 2011 at 4:28 pm
I really wish that my iCarly loving kid had not been sitting behind me while that video played, because now I’m afraid that she’ll want to see it again. I need one of those Men in Black pens, stat. For her & me.
March 15, 2011 at 5:13 pm
There have been several times I could have used one of those after visiting Regretsy. Vegan vulva cake, anyone?
March 15, 2011 at 4:31 pm
If I need a song to remind me of the days of the week I’ll go with this one:
March 15, 2011 at 4:34 pm
Darn. Embedding the video worked in the preview.
The Easybeats – Friday on my Mind
March 15, 2011 at 4:32 pm
Oh my various gods, that video is EVERYWHERE today. KILL IT WITH FIRE!
March 15, 2011 at 11:38 pm
It made what was left of my brain leak out my ears… so, I’m with you on the killing it with fire FairlyWyrd.
March 15, 2011 at 4:37 pm
Okie dokie then….
March 15, 2011 at 4:40 pm
it suits, Sad hipster looks on the verge of a suicide pout, and this music i believe would drive most people to rash life ending decisions….. or is that just me?
March 15, 2011 at 4:41 pm
Well… looks like someone hasn’t lived on this earth very long
March 15, 2011 at 4:46 pm
Why do all those kids look so YOUNG?! My gosh, all I kept thinking was “Where are their parents?!” lol oh God!
March 15, 2011 at 5:18 pm
The parents are busy out back in the hottub drowning their shame in vodka and quaaludes.
March 15, 2011 at 5:18 pm
RIGHT?? Seriously – they’re “partying” but wtf, they’re wearing BRACES. Um, I had braces too – in junior freaking high…..
March 16, 2011 at 5:52 am
I know! Right?! The whole time they a`r
March 16, 2011 at 5:53 am
sorry, daughter hit keyboard…
anywho, so the whole time they are sitting on the back of the car cruising down the interstate I kept screaming in my head “PUT ON YOUR DAMN SEATBELT!” ha ha ha ha!
March 15, 2011 at 4:46 pm
I didn’t know Fran Dresher had a kid…
March 15, 2011 at 4:48 pm
Wait, is it just me or is that necklace on the girl on the right look like a watch part!!! I’M SEEING FUCKERY EVERYWHERE!!
March 15, 2011 at 4:50 pm
While I’m not a fan of roofies, I do need something to wipe that crap out of my head.
March 15, 2011 at 4:54 pm
Very, very glad my son was not home to hear that…he’d make me play it again. God, please hurry us to the point where he doesn’t want to listen to his music around me anymore.
March 15, 2011 at 5:00 pm
Goodness gracious, put some seatbelts on those cavalier children! Combined with rapper man’s obvious oncoming car, this video put me in mind of our road safety adverts (graphic): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4Cvg_j7hsE
March 16, 2011 at 3:49 am
This makes me imagine a very different ending for this video. The kids are bopping along, it cuts to rapper man rapping, back to the kids, back to rapper man, and then BAM. They crash into each other and die.
March 15, 2011 at 5:01 pm
Besides, there are much better hipster videos out there! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzocvh60xBU
I play synth. We all play synth.
March 15, 2011 at 5:23 pm
And and AND!!! Ooooh…this video riles me up so much I want to fish my eardrums out with crusty bikini woman’s crochet hook. When I was her age, Friday only existed as an abstract concept. We routinely had 18 to 20 hours of weekend homework to contend with, and so there was none of this bouncing around in backseats with no proper restraints.
Actually, there really was no bouncing around in backseats without proper restraint. Sigh. Kids these days don’t know they’re born.
March 17, 2011 at 9:52 am
It was a better video…before it became all mainstream…
March 15, 2011 at 5:02 pm
Whoa. We were just talking about this earlier today.

March 15, 2011 at 5:18 pm
Ah! Now it all makes sense. It’s a vanity auto-tuned music video company for spoiled little rich girls.
March 15, 2011 at 5:11 pm
Why does she have her PIMP in the middle of the video? For fucks sake, the kids look 12, that dude is just creepy rapping in the car. Does he have a FREE CANDY sign I missed?
March 15, 2011 at 5:14 pm
What the fuck did I just watch?
March 15, 2011 at 5:15 pm
The strangest thing is that I kept waiting for Lonely Island to pop up in the song… and it never happened. So sad.
March 15, 2011 at 5:23 pm
I’m on a hipster!
March 15, 2011 at 5:22 pm
“Partying! Partying! Yeah!” …ahem, no. You sound like a creamy robot.
March 15, 2011 at 5:25 pm
i think one of the posts at youtube says it best, “there’s only one seat available, just get in the damn car”
March 15, 2011 at 5:29 pm
There’s 3 minutes and 48 seconds of my life I’ll never get back.
Well played HK, well played.
March 16, 2011 at 12:39 am
After watching this, I started to feel resentful at HK for getting me to click this link, then I switched to resenting myself for sitting through the whole damn thing.
March 16, 2011 at 12:44 am
Then I started to resent this 100% talent-free “singer” for having record contract, while I have to *work* for a living. *Sigh*
March 15, 2011 at 5:42 pm
The mute button helps a little.
March 16, 2011 at 12:32 am
Yeah, a little, but not nearly enough.
March 15, 2011 at 5:48 pm
This video sapped about 70% of my will to live the first time I watched it, so I’d be asking for trouble if I view it again. But, at least now we know why that damned hipster is so melancholy.
March 15, 2011 at 5:50 pm
Whatever happened to the days of ‘one-hit wonders’? They should be resurrected.
March 15, 2011 at 5:51 pm
Who wants to tell her that Robin Sparkles’ “Let’s Go to the Mall” isn’t real? Because I know she saw it and clasped her hands in glee…
March 15, 2011 at 7:59 pm
ZOMG – the first thing I thought, once I crammed my liquified brains back into my skull – was how this video made Sand Castles in the Sand look like frakkin Thriller!
March 15, 2011 at 9:19 pm
I TOTALLY HAVE THE ON MY IPOD!
March 15, 2011 at 9:45 pm
*That
Sad thing is…I did preview it.
March 16, 2011 at 9:02 am
Holy crap, that’s the other thing I was thinking!

I hope she didn’t get you! Snap out of it!
March 15, 2011 at 5:55 pm
I’m a teacher at an inner city school and if this young lady were to step into my school she would mostly likely have her ass handed to her…and her cute shoes stolen.
March 15, 2011 at 7:32 pm
I don’t think she ever leaves her gated community.
March 15, 2011 at 6:03 pm
*sigh* try again:
March 15, 2011 at 7:33 pm
Omg this should be comment of the day!
March 15, 2011 at 6:11 pm
This is one of those rare things that only gets worse the more times you watch it.
March 15, 2011 at 6:49 pm
THEN STOP WATCHING IT!
;D
March 15, 2011 at 7:21 pm
I CAN’T! oh god, what is happening?!?! I can’t stop. NOOOOOOOOO!
March 15, 2011 at 6:18 pm
never heard of this chick before. is she of the bieber generation?
March 15, 2011 at 6:18 pm
Now I am Old and Sad. 3 minutes and 48 seconds older than I was, and that much sadder.
On a personal note, that gal looks like every girl that goes to my kids’ High School. The future of America is doomed.
March 15, 2011 at 6:32 pm
It’s okay hipster, I’d be sad too.
March 15, 2011 at 6:33 pm
The girl’s expression in combination with the horrible music aggrevates me to the point of physical illness.
My generation confuses me.
March 15, 2011 at 7:06 pm
I took the bait this morning and watched it. I watched it all hoping it would get better but it just got worse. She can’t sing, she’s indecisive about a freaking seat, and pedo singer scared me, no way should he have been singing this or even in the video. He has officially ruined any chance he could have had at being taken serious. That voice! Her voice will haunt me forever! On another note I must be the worlds luckiest parent because my daughter looked at me like I had lost it when I watched this lol.
March 15, 2011 at 8:00 pm
Pretty sure that was Usher lookin’ like a creepy old perv up in there. Someone should tell him to stop trying to be relevant to the next generation.
March 15, 2011 at 8:54 pm
Clearly he made the whole thing as a huge sarcastic comment on the declining quality of “music stars”. Usher’s perky smile hides a mind boiling with bitterness and disgust.
March 16, 2011 at 2:35 pm
Um, definitely not Usher.
Not all black musicians are Usher.
March 15, 2011 at 7:14 pm
TOMORROW IS SATURDAY
AND SUNDAY COMES AFTERWORDS
March 15, 2011 at 7:31 pm
But what’s the next day, Rebecca?!?!?! I need to know!!!
March 15, 2011 at 7:43 pm
Unfortunately, Saturday and Sunday are the only two days she actually knows the names of. The rest of them are referred to as ‘Days I have to go to school and, like, it really depresses me, yanno?’
March 15, 2011 at 7:16 pm
LYRICAL GENIUS.
March 15, 2011 at 7:30 pm
I held off on going to bed for that? Well, the giggles from reading the comments were worth it. Rebecca “Crappy Singer” Black – 0, Me – well also 0. It’s a wash.
March 15, 2011 at 7:42 pm
Why the fuckety fuck is she singing about fried eggs?
March 15, 2011 at 7:44 pm
She and Justin Bieber should do a duet. not.
March 15, 2011 at 9:12 pm
If they combined, we’d only have to ignore half the songs, deal with half the unnatural insanity. Listen to them half…no, the kids would probably like it too much and we’d be listening TWICE as much. Damn.
March 15, 2011 at 8:04 pm
At some point, the love and adoration every parent feels for their children has to take a back seat, or maybe the front…no, no, definitely the back…OH SCREW IT! Tell the kid she can’t sing already and spare her the embarrassment of having MILLIONS of people laugh at her!
March 15, 2011 at 8:11 pm
I am thoroughly convinced that this is Justin Bieber in a wig. Same voice, same dorky expressions, same amount of appeal (none to speak of for anyone over 13), and the melody is almost exactly the same as Bieber’s “Baby.”
March 15, 2011 at 8:20 pm
I just – how is this a song? It barely qualifies as language, for one thing. She’s got this, then claims I got this. Maybe, if “this” is a piercing make-no-sense migraine.
Then there’s the whole days of the week poppycock, which is more of a preschool lesson than lyrics. Next Justin Bieber? Honestly, I’d voluntarily listen to some Justin Bieber if it would disappear this girl.
I have never been so vexed something existed before. This song is like a fucking chigger.
March 16, 2011 at 4:31 am
It’s like your inside my head! <3
March 16, 2011 at 4:32 am
*you’re
duh.
March 16, 2011 at 2:18 pm
Watch out. I might get comfortable in there.
March 15, 2011 at 8:49 pm
The song is terrible, yet it is stuck in my head!

BUT GUYS, ITS FRIDAY
March 15, 2011 at 9:23 pm
Ceiling cat hates her.
March 15, 2011 at 10:06 pm
So many things wrong here! The label that produces this garbage, Ark Factory, wrote on her page “It includes all the makings of a hit: 1) it’s educational (teaches the days of the week), 2) it incorporates real life issues that everyone struggles with (which seat to take), 3) it’s fun (even repeats the word “fun”). ”
1) I use a calendar to know remember the days of the week. 2) I struggle with which bills to pay, or if I should order another gin and tonic. 3) Well, I guess it is fun. You got me there Rebecca Black!
March 15, 2011 at 10:15 pm
i just like the gif of the hipster
March 15, 2011 at 10:19 pm
I never thought I would EVER say this, but this busted shit makes Kesha look like a lyrical mastermind with an angelic voice (well, a heavenly auto-tune?)
Oh, excuse me… I just remembered it’s spelled Ke$ha.
Since this video has been haunting me on every site I enjoy reading, I had to look at the links explaining the production company behind it. It’s a wholesome vanity company apparently. Are your parents rich? Are you a non-threatening pre-adolescent with aspirations of pop mediocrity? Well then, sign with your sweet sweet virgin blood on the dotted line. Because surely lord satan is behind this. “Oh yes, you will be famous, FAMOUS!” under his breath: “as the moron of the moment on the internet, getting ridiculed and laughed at by every single person with a connection fast enough to watch a YouTube video.”
March 15, 2011 at 10:32 pm
What in holy hell? I love how she’s, like, just making a fucking list of what she’s about to do. “Just waking up, going downstairs, stepped on the creaky stair, get my milk, get my cereal, put on my watch, fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun.”
This makes Bieber seem like a damned Beatle.
March 15, 2011 at 10:35 pm
For some reason I have the feeling she had to google the days of the week just to make sure she get them in the right order.
Also, we were listening to this in maths today and bitching about how horrible her grammar was…which is pretty sad considering I do extension maths and most people in my class aren’t exactly the best at English.
March 15, 2011 at 11:22 pm
March 15, 2011 at 11:41 pm
lol braces
March 16, 2011 at 12:35 am
I always swore I’d never be one of those people who bitches about new music, insisting music was better “back in my day”. This garbage is making me rethink this policy.
March 16, 2011 at 10:12 am
I seriously thought this was a joke. She is honestly popular? What the hell? My mind is officially blown.
And I just wasted a good three minutes of my life in complete disbelief.
March 16, 2011 at 12:53 am
I think my brain exploded around 1:48, but SO glad I stuck it out and did miss that *totally necessary* rap verse. /eyeroll/
March 16, 2011 at 1:29 am
I don’t even want to know how many of my brain cells died from watching that.
Kids these days….
March 16, 2011 at 5:49 am
I think we need to look at this more deeply. It can be viewed as a heartbreaking look into the life of a young girl dealing with
highmiddle school.In the opening scenes, her family rushes around, doing their morning routine, completely ignoring her. Perhaps this is why she stresses, “gotta get my bowl, gotta get my cereal.” Mom may get everyone else’s breakfast, but Rebecca must fend for herself.
She goes to the bus stop, unable to count on a ride from her friends. Notice how they take a long moment to look her over, as if deciding whether to take her along. When the boy in the back seat finally beckons her in, he does so reluctantly. These people do not want her along–and it’s not surprising. She is so socially inept that she struggles with which seat to take, despite the fact that there is only one available.
March 16, 2011 at 5:50 am
This is where fantasy takes over. She speaks of “partying, partying” and “fun fun fun fun fun”, but she clearly has never been to a party, because she has no idea what happens there. The best she can do is imagine herself standing there, bouncing and pointing. She invents an Usher lookalike who sings her praises, despite being much too old for her in real life.
Most likely she is sitting in class, remembering the events of the morning, and imagining an exciting weekend ahead of her, but her reality will be much different.
Or, it’s just a terrible, mindless song sung by an incredibly annoying little girl.
March 16, 2011 at 6:03 am
Angel Drawers, I was thinking the same exact thing! I kept saying (praying) that there just had to be some demented twist to this story and those kids would be catapulted right out of that car and they’d *never* make it to their Friday party.
Alas, today is Wednesday, so back to being productive.
March 16, 2011 at 6:36 am
At least she knows the days of the week in the correct order. She might have a chance after all.
March 16, 2011 at 9:22 am
Dear God that hurt my soul and traumatized my senses. Between the page peel strobing with additional rotoscoping, baby-talk grammar “we we we so excited. wee wee wee go potty potty potty”, Rebecca Black’s freaky-huge “eat you up” mouth, the midi-like music and twangy voice, and watching a bunch of 12 year old kids drive around illegally in a convertible, Ferris Bueller style, I am ready to crawl under my desk and stay there the rest of the day. Maybe I will come back out on Friday because then,”tomorrow is Saturday, and Sunday comes afterwards.”
March 16, 2011 at 10:04 am
fucking T-pain plugin for AutoTune has destroyed music as we know it now and forever.
thank god I don’t listen to this shit.
March 16, 2011 at 11:54 am
Her satire is so amazing it comes off as sincere.
Genius!
March 16, 2011 at 11:55 am
Thank god for this little girl, I have never been able to get the concept of days of the week, but now I’ve got it down. Not to mention I don’t feel so alone now because I too have a problem deciding whether to sit in the front or the back of the car. Now if I could only get Sad Hippster to loan me his swater while we ride around in the convertable…
March 16, 2011 at 1:36 pm
First, sad I watched this all the way through.

Ugh, I really wish I hadn’t broken down and clicked on that link. All the things I’ve seen on Regetsy and THAT’S the one thing that actually HURT to look at. Can I sue this child’s parents for pain and suffering? They obviously have to much money on their hands.
March 16, 2011 at 2:14 pm
Damn it!
*too
See, this video has killed some of my brain cells!
March 16, 2011 at 2:44 pm
Make it stop.
March 16, 2011 at 4:46 pm
Every song is better with a rap break, right?
March 16, 2011 at 4:58 pm
Youtube comments must be approved and ratings for the video are disabled… That’s usually a bad sign. I should have realized that before I watched it. Like I said before, she’s definitely not slutty enough to get away with singing so badly.
March 17, 2011 at 10:08 am
The fact that she’s not slutty enough isn’t a bad thing, seeing as it looks like she’s 13. So while her parents are enabling idiots, at least they haven’t pimped her out yet.
March 16, 2011 at 5:06 pm
“Can I sit in the front seat or the back seat? “Neither, you piss all of off. Just ride in the trunk. For fuck’s sake, we all know it’s Friday.”
March 16, 2011 at 10:39 pm
This song is balls-to-the-wall-awesome.
New ring-tone, here I come!
March 17, 2011 at 4:34 am
You go Hipster! Slap dat bitch!
March 17, 2011 at 10:29 am
I think I need some mental mouthwash. Maybe I’ll go watch 2 Girls, 1 Cup, it’s less traumatizing…

Ohhhhhhhh my god that was godawful. The way she says “Fryyyyaaiiidaaiiyyyeeee” was grating to my ears.
March 18, 2011 at 6:41 pm
I didn’t think that song could be any worse.
Boy, was I wrong…
