Because Xbox 360 is launching, and pretty much nothing else is happening in Australia, I want to call this month after those hilarious kids who got everyone jumping around.

It all started after I saw the slogan for the Xbox 360 - Jump In! I lol'd

and after that all I could say was JUMP! JUMP! JUMP! JUMP! and all I could think about was happy pants and crazy hair.

I say Microsoft needs to revive those artists (and possibly their corpses, who knows where they are now) and bring out a full-blown ad campain of kids in baggy pants telling people to jump!

JUMP!

MS says "JUMP" you say "how high?".

Those two kids (well, men now) no longer wanted to be associated with that song or era of their lives. Many years after that they were in a song with tons of cursing, seemingly just to distance themselves from that image. And they flopped and were never heard from again. It was rumored one of them even had cancer, but I don't know if that's true or not.

Regardless, an MS moneyhat COULD get them to make fools out of themselves one more time. But somehow I doubt it.

Speaking of which, has anyone heard the Vanilla Ice's rap metal version of Ice Ice Baby called Too Cold?

It's bliss.

Everyone must buy MC Hammer's landmark hip-hop album The Funky Headhunter.

Pumps and a bump (Houh!)
Pumps and a bump (Ooooh!)
We like the girs with the pumps and a bump!

What's a bump?

Bump: You'll want it when you see it, but you won't know it till you get it. :¬þ

Wait...weren't these the kids that wore their clothes inside out and started that stupid fad?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #11 on:** February 25, 2006, 02:14:24 PM »

I believe they wore it backwards and yes it was a stupid fad, and yes it was those kids

I need me a little bump

I tried to JUMP IN to the 360 demos that I've found around the place. It's an adventure that goes a little like this:

HELLO THERE SEXY BOX, LET ME PUSH YOUR BUTTONS SO THAT YOU RESPOND IN A WAY THAT REWARDS US BOTH.

*play PGR 3, sideways action and hilarious crashes without damaging car goes here*
*screen freeze*

KAAAAAAAHN!

3 demo units have done this to me already. I lol'd. Nice launch plan, guess I'll just have to drool and mash the buttons in the mean time.

If there's one thing I learned from Kriss Kross, is not to miss the bus...

...and that's something that I'll never ever ever do again....

Screw CrissCross. Milla Vanilla and New Children In The Neighborhood are where it's AT.

I hated kriss kross, I thought they were stupid and asinine and pretentious.

Well on Kid was Jermaine Dupri who is still in the Rap game and dating Janet Jackson,

BUMP POINTLESS THREADS ALWAYS! NEVER FOGHAT!

Anyway, Sexbox 360 launched here last night. 12:01 on the dot. Anyone who broke it would be severely heckled and embarassed by those nerds who waited patiently.
I could have got mine, but I decided that I wasn't funky enough to send instant messages using a controller and passed. With time, perhaps I could be funky enough.

$40 million dollars worth of first day sales allegedy, better than a Harry Potter book and Lord of the Rings movie COMBINED.
I lol'd.

Seeing as how I work in a place that sells 360s (I'm so calling it XBOX SPINNER NOW because no-one's jumping in and i'll just spin around on the spot and try to start my own trendy slogan) and I looked on the computer to find out how many we sold.

0

Hilarious. Considering it was cheaper than retail ($629 instead of $650, GOOD PRICE FOR NUTMEG) and all games were down to $75 (even the $110 ones - they'd sold a few of them at least) it was quite funny.

There was a video going of the various hype movies that I saw sometime last year (with all the staff talking about how the 360 is apparently better than sex AND beer, and then they all drop their various e-tags and make idiots of themselves to be spread on the Internet). Man that J.Allard guy is an moron. Shaved heads are cool if your name is Samuel L Jackson. White people who have single-letter first names just look like morons. You can't argue with science!

Oh, the demo SPINNER doesn't work still. GOOD WORK ALL ROUND, MICRASAWFT!

Dasmos · « **Reply #20 on:** March 23, 2006, 04:08:36 PM »

$75, serious? All the places I saw yesterday had games over $100. I actually saw a few people buying Xboxes as well.

EDIT: Now I think of it, they had games for $75 at JB.
