Weird Al has adapted to the Internet better than any other artist from the 80's. His Chamillionaire parody "White and Nerdy" has over 50 million views on YouTube, and is currently one of the site's most popular videos of all-time. The song was his career peak, going all the way to#9 on the Billboard Hot 100 (his previous best - "Eat It" at #12 in1984). Since then he's explored digital distribution which, for the first time in his three decade career, has allowed him to parody current events and songs that are popular right now. Really, it's hard to believe Weird Al survived at all - much less thrived - before iTunes and YouTube. He recently released The Essential Weird Al collects 38 of Al's best songs into two discs.

CollegeHumor: How did you decide which were the greatest hits from your distinguished career?

Weird Al: It was tough. I've got twelve studio albums of material and I did have to leave off a lot of stuff that some fans think should have been on the essentials collection. There's some historically important ones missing. "My Bologna," isn't even on there, which was my first pseudo-hit. Even though My Bologna was historically important, it wasn't so brilliant I would consider it among my best work. So I had to weigh fan favorites with what I thought were songs that actually merited being on a best-of compilation.

CH: So you hand picked the songs yourself?

WA: I did, yeah.

CH: When you were going through your earlier albums, did you rediscover any material that you'd forgotten about?

WA: I don't think I'd actually literally forgotten about any of it but it was kinda nice to listen to some of the old tracks again that I hadn't heard in a while. It also was an opportunity to clean up a couple things. This new collection is completely remastered. It's not remixed, but we cleaned it up. I won't mention where exactly because I don't want people to obsess over it the way I did, but there were a couple songs that had a few little pops and ticks and just little things that probably most people have never heard before in their life but they'd been bugging me for 25 years.

Wikipedia is a wonderful place to share information. It's also a wonderful place for immature people to call things they hate "gay." Few things are as universally hated as Nickelback, so we had our interns scour their Wikipedia history to find every instance of vandalizism. We've compiled the results into one big Nickelback-bashing video.

For centuries Man wondered what wiped out the dinosaurs millions of years ago. Then a bunch of know-it-all scientists ruined our fun and told us it was probably just a big rock from space. But that hasn't stopped science fiction from offering its own insane theories on what (or what evil alien race) killed off our reptilian predecessors.


THEORY:
A meteorite did wipe out most of the dinosaurs, but the impact also created a parallel dimension where they continued to evolve
THEORIST:
Super Mario Bros. (the movie)


What exactly is a koopa? Bowser seems to be a cross between a turtle and a dinosaur, but then what does he want with the human Princess? Controversial issues like these made the story of Super Mario Bros. difficult to adapt. The writers decided that koopas were dinosaurs who had been hiding out in another dimension, and while most had evolved into something vaguely human one had become Dennis Hopper. They were also apparently such big fans of Mario, they insisted that the exposition explaining the scenario be animated using the SNES classic Mario Paint.

Kicked out of the greatest rock band ever, Pete Best is history's most famous person famous for not being famous. The reasons behind Best's notorious 1962 dismissal as The Beatles' drummer -- two years before their historic Ed Sullivan show - have been a point of debate among Beatlemaniacs and members of the Pete Best Fan Club for decades. Some claim he lacked the solid beats needed to support a rock band, while others claim John and Paul vainly wanted a less attractive drummer. Considering his replacement was the dubious-looking Ringo Starr, the second theory actually seems likely.

As a musician, Eric Stefani (brother of Gwen) has the other kind of bad timing. His rhythm is fine, but his career moves have always come at the wrong time. Shortly after making Airwalks and trombones cool again with No Doubt's breakout album, Tragic Kingdom, Stefani left to become an animator just as the band was becoming great, then joined The Simpsons just as that show's decline into thorough suckitude was beginning.
