clu> mayo on fries is the way to go.
clu> that, or malt vinegar.
r03> thats my fave....malt vinegar and black pepper!
r03> or hot sauce
r03> but hot sauce is good on everything
clu> One of my old roommates would disagree. He put Dave's Insanity Sauce on his taint one night as we we're all super "inebriated". Can't imagine the burning.
clu> I guess there's a reason they call it dope.
r03> what a dumb idea
r03> taintburn!
clu> The funniest part of the story is after he got back from work the next day. He said as he was riding the bus into cambridge, the burn started to come back, and he just had to sit there and pretend there was nothing wrong, and was started sweating like crazy.
r03> anything i would eat...and that certainly excludes your ex-roomate's taint
r03> that is funnah

Hilarious YouTube Parodies 'Shred' Guitar Gods entertainment
Link #133233 submitted by LinusMines on Oct 17, 2007 11:02pm.   (+290XP)
http://www.wired.com/entertainment/music/news/2007/10/shredders
The video resembles one of the many concert clips you can find on YouTube: Guitarist Jake E. Lee burns up the fretboard onstage while Ozzy Osbourne claps to the beat in front of thousands of rabid fans.  
 
Except that something's not right -- the shredding solo emanating from Lee's guitar sounds as if it was going through an actual shredder, while the rest of the clip is devoid of background noise, save for Ozzy's comedic, overenthusiastic clapping.  
 
Of course, that's the joke (which, admittedly, loses some of its punch in its translation to text). Lee's a legitimate metal guitar hero, and Ozzy's not supposed to sound as if he's clapping to himself inside his bathroom.  
 
But the overdubbed "shreds" videos -- of which there are nearly a dozen skewering the likes of Eddie Van Halen, Eric Clapton and Slash -- have struck a chord on YouTube. Countless posters have praised the creator of the hilarious clips for pairing ax-wielding rock gods with god-awful guitar work, all while making it look real.  
 
The man behind the videos is Santeri Ojala, a 32-year-old from Tampere, Finland, whose YouTube user name is StSanders. One day a few months ago, Ojala happened to catch a Steve Vai performance on TV while the sound was off. It looked "kinda funny," Ojala wrote in an e-mail interview, so he grabbed his guitar...
