newsflash: monster mash challenge 2006 begins! written by eric on 10/13/06
“the monster mash” is the most important song ever. sorry john lennon’s “imagine” but we took a vote - and you’re evicted!
bobby “boris” pickett took monsters - which as we all know, are terrifying - and taught them how to dance, which in turn, taught us not to be afraid of the monsters, which in turn taught the humans and the monsters to dance together. that is the greatest message music has ever given us. “four dead in ohio” my ass.
but for reasons unexplained, in spite the awesomeness of “the monster mash” i only seem to hear it during the month of october. yet i’ve had to hear the black eyed peas every month since 2003 - and they suck!
so it’s about time we stick it to the man (and the black eyed peas). it’s time to show that “the monster mash” is important to our awesome past, our awesome present, and our awesome future! overtime comedy presents the monster mash challenge 2006!
here’s how it goes: kickstarting tonight on the witching hour of friday the 13th and going all the way until halloween night on the 31st, we’ll prove that “the monster mash” has seeped into every aspect of culture. and you, our very attractive readers, can help!
if you have a video, a picture, a story proving that “the monster mash” was important to your life, then feel free to present it to the overtime audience. and if you don’t any history with “the monster mash” - then you have 3 weeks to make history. we’ll find out what separates the men and women from the boys and …ghouls.
so get ready readers, the monster mash challenge 2006 begins … now!
