I've always gotten a kick out of Weird Al. I"m not sure why, but I think it's got to do with the certain aspect of his attitude.
As someone who is a journalist, i may not be perfect, but I really strive to try to use proper english. Daily I cringe when I hear people throw words, phrases, and contractions about that don't even make sense.
"My friend, which is a teacher" just about sends me over the moon.
So I had a pretty good chuckle listening to the latest Weird Al tune, set to Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" which the weird one calls "Word Crimes".
I gotta hand it to Weird Al. All of us could use a little sprucing up on our native tongue...
