“2 Girls 1 Cup” Song Lyrics: (if you don’t know what “2 Girls 1 Cup” is then do a search on google..)
I thought i was the only one
who knew just how to have fun
now my greatest fantasy
is right in front of me
lets throw out the toilet
what a waste of space
poop on my face
holy shit! literally 100% free
just kidding thats gross
why eat poop when you’ve got toast?!
i couldn’t believe my eyes
the first few seconds were pretty nice
the thought of me throwing up? impossible!
they ate that shit like A POPSICLE
what the hell was that
someone give these women their dignity back
has poop become the latest snack?
SHITS WACK! haha get it?!
forget bulimia! watch 2 girls 1 cup!
i guarantee you will throw up!
holy shit literally! what the FFF….
HOLD UP
You think these bitches might be hard on a dick
but instead they poopin in cups and garglin shit
half a billion views, this is horribly wrong
somebody tell these women that they morals is gone
i got sent a link, but its the fact that i followed it
instead of flushin it, the broad actually swallowed it
man watch the video its evil what she do
MAN I don’t eat SHIT people I eat food!!
poop! if you eat it does it come out food?
im never gonna take another poo
Lili,take another walk out of your fake world
please put all the drugs out of your hand
you’ll see that you can breathe without no back up
so much stuff you’ve got to understand
for every step in any walk
any town of any thought
i’ll be your guide
for every street of any scene
any place you’ve never been
i’ll be your guide
lili,you know there’s still a place for people like us
the same blood runs in every hand
you see it’s not the wings that make the angel
just have to move the bats out of your head
for every step in any walk
any town of any thought
i’ll be your guide
for every street of any scene
any place you’ve never been
i’ll be your guide
lili,easy as a kiss we’ll find an answer
put all your fears back in the shade
don’t become a ghost without no colour
cause you’re the best paint life ever made
for every step in any walk
any town of any thought
i’ll be your guide
for every street of any scene
any place you’ve never been
i’ll be your guide

investor, Facebook
got me a CS degree
honor roll, MIT
moved to Palo Alto
opportunity Knocked
thought i had the perfeect plan
took a job at webvan
traded in my twenties
for a worthless pile of tech stock
Suffered throught the market crash
lost a giant wad of cash
Pink slips, burger flips
would you like some fries
happy days are here again
lary page, sergey brin
time to write a business plan
so i can be like those guys!
here comes another bubble
it’s a monster rally
all around the valley
first you need a buzzword
(Ajax)
then a second and a third
pick at least two industries
you’ll revolutionize
(newpappers + friendship bracelets)
find yourself an engineer
feed him pizza, buy him beer
(product placement : Samel Adams)
Give him just a fraction
of a fraction of the pie
need a good domain name
must be cheap, can’t be lame
something cool like
flickr, meebo, wikiyou, mahalo, bebo
“telephone” without the “t”
“digg” but with a triple “g”
make your elevator pith
(“We’re going to change the world!”)
code it up and flip the switch
(internal server error)
here comes another bubble
(VC #1: friendship bracelets and news is a game changer.)
the VCs are backing
(VC #2: The next wave of the web will be friendship bracelets.)
baby let’s get cracking
blog, blog, blog it all
blog it if it’s big or small
blog at the cineplex
(justin.tv)
blog while you’re having sex
blog in the locker room
babies blogging in the womb
blog even if you’re wrong
won’t you blog about this song?
(Yet Another Stupid Web 2.0 Video)
launch party, nicely dressed
what the point? sausage fest
blue shirt, khaki pants,
looking like a line of ants
need to get a facebook page
all these guys are half my age
twenty nice, past my prime
i feel so behind the times
here comes another bubble
(Matt is broke)
in a year we swear
we’ll all be billionaires
make yourself a million bucks
partly skill, mostly luck
now you can afford a down payment
on a small house
if you want a bigger one
hillsborough, atherton
better hoipe the same thing
happened to your spouse
IPO… luky you
have your cake and eat it too
Party yacht, party jet
why not buy a matching set?
build yourself a rocket ship
blast off on an ego trip
can this really be the end?
back to work you go again
here comes another bubble
(im in ur serverz making thingz better!!, Twitter has problems!!)
and when we are gone
(You looked better on Myspace)
this will still go on
A report from Denis Olivennes, CEO of Fnac.com has been signed this Friday by the french government of Nicolas Sarkozy.
The pact was signed between french government and about 40 associations from Music, Cinema, Television and Internet Service Providers (ISP). However this agreement has been very criticised by french Assembly.
Among the artists who support Olivennes Friday: Thomas Fersen, Patrick Bruel, Calogero, Didier Barbelivien, Jean Reno et Christian Clavier.
Internet users are just starting to discuss about this agreement and it is going to be huge in the blogosphere and medias.
Denis Olivennes : “[…] J’ajoute qu’en l’occurrence, il est précisément question de tout sauf de prison ! Suspendre l’abonnement après trois avertissements, ce n’est ni une condamnation, ni une amende ni une peine de prison […]”
(translation: “It is everything but jail. Suspend internet access after three warnings is not a conviction, a ticket or jail”)
The pact plans to send a notice to the internet user after three P2P downloads. If the user does it again, he won’t have access to internet (done by ISP) and he could be put on a blacklist.
So the internet user won’t be able to connect to the internet!
Sarkozy said: « J’avais pris des engagements sur le droit d’auteur avant les élections. Chaque artiste doit voir son travail rémunéré, je ne transigerai pas sur ce point. »
(translation: “I took the pledge on copyrights before the elections. Every artist should see his work paid. I won’t compromise over this.”)
And : “We run the risk of witnessing a genuine destruction of culture”
“The Internet must not become a high-tech Far West, a lawless zone where outlaws can pillage works with abandon or, worse, trade in them in total impunity. And on whose backs? On artists’ backs” he said.
But currently the law is not applied and even if it’s applied one day, we are going to see other alternatives for illegal music and movies downloading.
And besides how could the independent authority technically detect automatically the P2P downloads ?
And what about the prices in France if a lot of people P2P download ?
Here in Canada I pay CAD$ 3.99 to rent a DVD. When I was in France in the previous months it was about CAD$6.75 (4.50€).
And it’s the same for CD. It’s about 30% more expensive in France than in Canada.
May be a drop in prices could help a little the entire industry?
