Learn F***in' Science with Insane Clown Posse

If the Insane Clown Posse and their juggalo fandom created a science textbook, this is what it would look like. Daniel O'Brien of Cracked.com, who is responsible for this here shizzle, says,

I've created a juggalo-friendly textbook, taking into account the song's claim that they "don't wanna talk to a scientist," who they consider to be a "lying motherf**ker" intent on "getting [them] pissed." To that end, every lesson will be directly based on actual ICP lyrics, and every page will be packed with in-your-face juggalo clown-rage. Or, the best clown-rage I can muster.

Juggaloco Psycho Clown-speak is a shockingly complex language.

Learn Your Motherf#@kin' Science: A Textbook for Juggalos

To fully appreciate this, watch the music video for the ICP song "Miracles."

  @nixiebunny • #1: Good observation. I think the old resistor mnemonic is even more offensive since it seems to makes light of rape.

• [nixiebunny]

  That mnemonic for memorizing the rainbow colors is no worse than the one taught to every young electrical engineer back in the good old days for the EIA resistor color code. Ask your dad.

  • [hechanova]

    …or Google. Yikes. It’s like someone’s drunk, lecherous grandad became a mnemonic.

  • [Anonymous]

    Medical school had some pretty good mnemonics back in the day.

      I learned “Never Lower Tilly’s Pants Mother May Come Home” for the bones in the wrist from my mom, who is an X-ray (well, CT now) tech. I remember the mnemonic, but I can’t remember the names of the bones any more.

  Rainbows occur through refraction, dispersion, and total internal reflection, not by transmission. Just sayin’.
  Easy diagram.
  The hard ‘science’.

• [Anonymous]

  You guys are too white by half. Seriously.

  Have a smoke-n-a-smile and re-listen to the song: it’s just a coupla goofy honkies using a “rap” format to say “life is really neat, and so are rainbows.”

  And magnets.

• [LLLLLL]

  Does everything need a gimmick? Science is kick-ass as-is. Quantum-mechanics, optics, thermodynamics, it doesn’t get much better than that. If you need to pepper it with stupid clown-stuff then you just don’t get it.

  How about “Virgins In Bed Give You Odd Results?” That’s what was taught in my school.

• [fxq]

  Please. Stop.

• [Hughv]

  While I appreciate the awesomeness of the video, the incredibly vulgar language negates any good that might otherwise be done, and suggests the performers/writers aren’t well socialized.
  I’m far from a prude in these matters, but the audience that might gain from this presentation is too young for this kind of gratuitous swearing.

• [Anonymous]

  20 years and still getting people worked up. Gotta love it.

• [siliconsunset]

  So… am I the only one who thinks this reads a lot like a Maddox write-up without the wit?

  Don’t get me wrong, though, I find this to be amazing and funny.

• [Teller]

  Sherman, said Mr Peabody, an Original, Young Gangsta is an impossibility since an OG is, de facto, older.

• [bklynchris]

  So wait, ICP are anti-science Christian fundamentalist freaks? Yes, right?

  • [drivenbyboredom]

    I wrote this thing after seeing that video about ICP and Christianity. They came out of the closet as the strangest form of Christians yet a few years ago.
