Whoa, has anybody seen this? The Texas Tech Red Raiders put together a fun “parody”-style video of an obscure Korean pop song called ‘Gangnam Style.’ This is so weird! Heh! Good job being on the ball with this, Texas Tech, I can’t wait to see how many schools follow your lead! (via Outside The Box Score)

One of my favorite news updates from The Onion, besides the one about the “ask murderer,” is Ping-Pong Somehow Elicits Macho Posturing. Now, thanks to table tennis player and apparent Internet reader Adam Bobrow, that story has become reality.

Bobrow went Full Gangnam Style after scoring a point in the Chancellor Cup in Manila, The Philippines. Maybe if his opponent hadn’t been balls-deep in a Carly Rae Jepsen Flip camera parody video himself, he would’ve seen a ping pong ball flying at him. Bobrow’s excuse:

I was invited to do an exhibition match that was filmed by the national news… I thought you guys would enjoy this. By the way, BIG thanks to my partner in this exhibition… my “opponent”… Peter Francisco! He’s a much better player than me and has a great attitude! Playing with him was an absolute pleasure.

Translation: “I won at ping-pong, so I did a horsey dance and shook my junk around until somebody made me stop. Deal with it.” It’s officially the greatest moment in table tennis history, assuming that stuff with Forrest Gump wasn’t real.

Video is after the jump.

You know you’re onto something good when the first 40 seconds of your minute-20 video is about how everyone you know thinks you’re terrible. Regardless, Mike & Mike in the Morning had the ‘idear’ of doing a Gangnam Style parody, so now that’s a thing that exists.

A quick question for producer William: Did you get the idear from the 400,000 other people who did a Gangnam Style parody video? Because it’s the end of October, and that shit was barely timely a week into September. Also, was your parody idear to just do the Gangnam Style video badly? Because that’s not really a parody. That’s just you doing a horse-humpy dance and putting it on YouTube.

Ah well, I can only throw so much shade at them when literally everyone else in the world has done the same thing. There are starving children in the Sudan somewhere trying to find an elevator for their Gangnam Style parody.

Hey Burnsy, do you own a pair of sunglasses? I’ve got a great idea for tomorrow’s posts.

If you read “Roy Hibbert’s Gangnam Style Flash Mob” and got excited, this is the best video you will ever see. If you didn’t … well, at least he isn’t still dancing around to ‘Call Me Maybe’. (via The NBA Mistress)

Gangnam Style. Woop. Woop, woop, woop.

Despite NFL On Fox killing dead whatever joy we’d have left listening to Psy’s international hit ‘Gangnam Style’ with Jimmy Johnson’s erotic butter-churner dancing, sports-themed Gangnam Style parodies are still hitting the Internet, and we are helpless to stop them.

Instead of devoting an individual post to every one of them (like we did with the Oregon Duck Gangnam Style, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Gangnam Style or the Golden State Warriors dancers Gangnam Style), I’m just throwing them all into one, easy-to-throw-into-the-sun combo post.

After the jump, you’ll find:

1. Manny Pacquiao dancing Gangnam Style.
2. Novak Djokovic dancing Gangnam Style.
3. The Columbus Blue Jackets dancing Gangnam Style.
4. Chris Petersen and Boise State in a South Park-style Gangnam Style video.
5. Your head on a spike, probably

May God have mercy on your soul.

We hope you enjoyed it while it lasted.

Psy’s international hit ‘Gangnam Style’ has gone Full Macarena. What started off as funny thing to share with people on the Internet became a legitimate crossover success, grew into a slew of on-the-ball parody videos and eventually became a kinda-tired thing that was still fun to do with cheerleaders. Now, thanks to NFL On Fox, Gangnam Style has reached its penultimate evolutionary milestone: it’s a thing old people do when they’re trying to be funny. Now it either has to explode, or show up five years from now in an Adam Sandler comedy (or on wrestling) to complete the cycle.

Anyway, they look like they’re having fun, so I can’t talk too much shit about it, but man, I don’t ever want Jimmy Johnson to look at me like that again. It’s like he’s erotically churning butter.
