Do Me Now, Superman!

No, I don't have a Superman fetish, but I think Spider Woman here might.

I Became A "Translator"!

You know how I've been posting those Indian videos "translated" into English? Well, I made one of my own. Leave a comment and tell me what you think!

Another Indian music video with funny English "translations"!

This one from the original, buffalax. Have you been high today? (Click the video to get the joke).

Poll: Is This Racist?

I have recently made an interesting but hilarious discovery on YouTube. You see, there's this little group on there that likes to take music videos from India, and "translate" them into English. What this really means is that the subtitles are what the Hindi (or Telugu) words sound like if they were singing in English.

For example...well, check this out. Here is the Telugu version of Michael Jackson's "Thriller":



OK, that video really was looking for that. That was just hilarious, even without the "translation". It was done by the YouTube user "buffalax", who now has a wave of followers, such as the person who did the next video. Here's a sexy number that was, again, "translated" into English. *WARNING* May be NSFW. Depends on how much of a tightass your boss is. Rated PG-13.



Here's the thing. I think the whole thing is hilarious, but does that make me racist? Does that make the "translators" racist? I think probably not. I think it's just fun wordplay. I really like Indian music videos, even though I never know what the hell is going on in any of them. This just gives them a...twist!

Please correct me if I'm wrong, though.
