Newspapers, magazines and broadcast networks around the world are chomping down on the "Lazy Sunday" meme as if it were delivered in a box from Magnolia Bakery.But faithful Boing Boing readers know that the Lonely Island dudes' overnight success was a long, long night in the making -- we were fans of Jorma, Andy, and Akiva years before they got their big SNL break.
Of the many headlines they made this week, none is so delightful as this Babelfish-translated item from Der Spiegel:
FRESHLY BAKED MUFFIN RAP STARDo you read German? I don't care. Please don't send a real translation. I just want to remember "Klick-Kult mit Gangsta-Rap" in unadulterated bot-grish.Freshly baked Muffin RAP star could be abserviert therefore fast ice cold: "perhaps we stand there next Monday without ideas. And that is intimidating ", said Schaffer. "we can use each assistance."
And of the dozens of links to fan projects we've received, this one takes the (cup) cake: Boing Boing reader Nate says,
I was totally inspired by the SNL skit to produce a t-shirt for a developer I work with and so I want to send it out to anyone else who wants to upload it to cafe press or whatever.Link to "DIY Chronic-WHAT-cles of Narnia t-shirt." Or whatever.
(Thanks, Micah!)
Reader comment: Graham says,
Someone put up some Lazy Sunday bobbleheads on eBay. It's even got a background thing-a-majig. Link
