The dead awkward silence at the end of the video is at the heart of this awesomeness. Where's the like button? Oh, I guess I'll just leave this tab open in my browser and let the auto-refresh amp up the page views instead.

Thanks for that! Man, I remember 1999, too. It was nutz! I found a cell phone at a dotcom Halloween party and…well, let's just say Kanye's not the only one ripping off the Creative Underclass of '99.

JDS: we know, in our hearts, that this would have made a dope Liquid TV segment.

I vote "Lick my left one" for the alliteration.

Maybe it's the kief but this went down in September, 1999. MTV made a big deal about 9-9-99.

I still think "Suck it, Kanye!" is just so much more… mellifluous.

This is a good thing! Kanye is yet again, proven unoriginal.

Waiting until 2019 to share that may have been a better idea.

Love the dead silence after the interruption. The proverbial turd in the proverbial punchbowl.
