I don't get music videos these days... I just watched the Whistle music video by Flo Rida and I think it's ridiculous. (And I'm not even talking about what a ridiculous name Flo Rida is). Am I the only one who thinks he looks ridiculous swaying on some rocks thinking he's super cool and good looking? And he looks like a total pervert taking pictures of girls.. but I guess that's the message he's trying to send. The thick gold chain he's wearing is also super funny. Who wears a thick gold chain to the beach?? Maybe he found it after digging up a treasure box? *Arrr, found treasure while swaying around the beach in tight white pants* (piratey voice)
Ah... my friends posted that video on Facebook so I guess I don't get pop culture. And I'm not even ranting about how that video sexualizes women. Video is too offensive (although still very funny) for me to repost. I think a pirate hat and a talking parrot will make the video funnier.

Pop culture is meant to be taken in a pseudo-literal way. The trend these days is that of "toughness" compared to the more care-free versions of earlier pop culture.
Don't worry though -- every generation sees the newer ones as being more and more ridiculous.
