Renzo's Rant

Why Weird Al Kicks Both Of Our Asses


1. He's an architect.

Alright, he's not an architect, but he could be. He has a degree in architecture. This man gave up a bright and promising career in the exciting field of architecture in order to entertain and bring joy to thousands. Talk about sacrifice. There is one downside, though - it's now this man who's making your houses.

Yes, Our Old Friend David Goldstein Is At It Again!

I don't know about you, but I'm not entirely comfortable with a "set painter what don't make no money" designing my home. Oh, and if you haven't read my beef with this guy, perhaps you should click here.

2. He saved your ass in 'Nam.

Remember when you got tagged in the middle of the Vietnamese jungle? You thought you were going to die, or perhaps get captured by those Commie pinkos. But who just happened to come along, and carry you back to safety? That's right, it was Weird Al.

The Last Face You Thought You'd Ever See

After carrying you on his back for twelve miles, he fought off a Viet-Cong ambush single-handedly while waiting to be rescued. If that doesn't kick ass, I don't know what does. [Renzo's note: Is it just me, or does he uncannily resemble Martin Sheen in Apocolypse Now in this shot?]

3. He pissed off Coolio and lived to talk about it.

Too bad I can't say the same thing about this guy:

Tupac, We Hardly Knew You

4. He's the long-lost twin brother of Bruce Campbell.

It's a little-known fact that Weird Al was reunited with his twin brother Bruce Campbell in 1978, and was his stunt double in all of the Evil Dead movies, as well as the TV shows Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess. You wouldn't think it, given their apparent facial dissimilarity caused by Al's normally long hair. But closely regard the following:

Reunited At Last

5. He somehow manages to make accordians cool.

Yes, I know we all thought that Newton proved this to be impossible back in 1790, but somehow Weird Al manages to defy physics. He has done what Urkel failed to do: play the accordian and not be an annoying wiener.

Jaleel White - No Longer Urkel, Still Not Cool


If you're still not convinced that Weird Al kicks your ass, you must be suffering from paranoid delusions. Or maybe you're Jaleel White.
