YTMND Thursday: The majestic flock of Kangs photo

Easily my favorite YTMND this week is the flock of Kangs. You just don't expect it at all and it's just perfect. Wow, I really hope this fad starts to take off. I haven't laughed this hard at a YTMND fad in a long time.

Lots of Mortal Kombat themed ones this week. I guess people really wanted to revisit the classic games. I also really liked the 8-bit Guitar Hero remix. The 8-bit version sounds better than the regular version.  

Thanks to Dr. Milkdad and Pedro for a couple of these. What were your favorites from this week? 

Random Man Now Dog: Ricky Ricardo's Babalualuealuealeuale.

Shit's weak! WEAK!

I liked the 8-bit rendition of "Through the Fire and Flames", though.

I dunno. YTMND is hit or miss with me. Sometimes it's so funny I get a headache from laughing so hard, but this week's selections just didn't work for me. I'm sure plenty of people think it's funny, and that's cool. I just didn't get as much "lulz" as you did :)

I wish there was a button on my itunes that made every song sound 8-bit.

Flock of Kangs got me. I burst out laughing in my office. Luckily everyone else is at a seminar.

All right, actually, the Phoenix Wright one is my favorite this week. Had me laughing out loud, but then it went on too long. I think just having the characters utter profanity is weird enough that it makes me laugh.

Kangs, Smoke, and the Phoenix Wright one were the tits (with the appearance of Sean Connery being the icing on the woman-slapping cake).
8-bit Dragonforce was a good song, but bad YTMND.

Great stock of YTMND's this week. I laughed my ass off at the Flock of Kangs. Totally didn't see that one coming. xD

Smoke on a treadmill, TF2, footsteps, and the Phoenix Wright ones were also really good. Except the Phoenix Wright one wasn't synced right, so it kind of ruined the comedic pacing.

Kang, Smoke, and Cannibal Calvin's were incredible.

Cannibal Calvin may have lost his ticket to heaven, but he just blasphemed his way into my heart.

I found the one with Jax shaking the baby very amusing. :OD

Ok.... they we all funny.... but I thought a Flock of Kangs was going to be a continuation of some sort of Biblical theme..... so seeing them fly by was fuck all hysterical. Bravo, good sir. Bravo.

I saw the Phoenix Wright one a while ago, and love it so hardcore because of the awesome music transition.
