I have been a big Weird Al fan for years, like years and years. There may have even been a couple years before that – but that’s it.
Amongst Weird Al fans you find the discussion of what is better, the parodies or the original music? Some think that the songs he writes, like Skipper Dan, Everything you know is Wrong and Dare to be Stupid, are better than some of his parodies. Others think that him making fun of popular music is superior.
To this argument I have a very simple comment.
