The Lyrics
The greatest website in internet history.
High school stories; McNamara,
Old impersonations, aggra-
vate all our cares,
Spare us those tears!
Here’s a site so simple that,
It makes you laugh at all its antics,
So hear me out,
This site has clout…
(Chorus)
Just take George Briant,
And Germaine Briant; Carole, too,
It’s lovely reading,
Their lives through,
300 Boy Scouts,
“Roxanne” and their shouts,
That you know,
Sugar-free cake is shown,
And subjects that you should,
Always know,
And tell me, who sinned,
When doing Ed Wynn, one July?
That Alex Weibel,
You’ll sure cry,
The great big website’s a wondrous toy,
Just made for a trite ‘tard-boy,
That fan of Briants,
Is AmIRight’s big joy!
(Instrumental verse)
An ad by Arby’s,
Makes you want Hardee’s,
It’s that bad,
But that smart Briants fan,
Knows what is best; he’s glad,
To live mad…
(Instrumental verse)
And Carole Lombard can never spoil,
Your day or a cramped tinfoil,
That fan of Briants,
Is AmIRight’s…big joy!
Old impersonations, aggra-
vate all our cares,
Spare us those tears!
Here’s a site so simple that,
It makes you laugh at all its antics,
So hear me out,
This site has clout…
(Chorus)
Just take George Briant,
And Germaine Briant; Carole, too,
It’s lovely reading,
Their lives through,
300 Boy Scouts,
“Roxanne” and their shouts,
That you know,
Sugar-free cake is shown,
And subjects that you should,
Always know,
And tell me, who sinned,
When doing Ed Wynn, one July?
That Alex Weibel,
You’ll sure cry,
The great big website’s a wondrous toy,
Just made for a trite ‘tard-boy,
That fan of Briants,
Is AmIRight’s big joy!
(Instrumental verse)
An ad by Arby’s,
Makes you want Hardee’s,

But that smart Briants fan,
Knows what is best; he’s glad,

And Carole Lombard can never spoil,
Your day or a cramped tinfoil,
That fan of Briants,
Is AmIRight’s…big joy!

I heard Gary McNamara tried to get ahold of you on your CB and all you could think to say was “Copy that”. Question: do you copy my stuff just to see what decent writing looks like? Heaven knows you’ll never figure it out on your own.
Thanks for your feedback Phil Ossifer. It is always welcome. I do try hard to write quality parodies.
Ah, I see you're back to copy/pasting my old replies. I'm betting that was driven by you freaking out over all those post-sue isside days where your entries didn't engender a single comment. Regarding your "sue isside" here's what I told the board on 6/29: "Don't buy into this; he's just trying to set everybody up for another ruse. Last time he tried this, he went into elaborate detail about how he was dying from complications caused by purposely ingesting pool-cleaning chemicals as a means of dealing with his inner trauma. As one of his last "public" acts, he issued what he hoped would appear to be a heartfelt apology to me. (Knowing him, the current apology shown above is probably just a copy/paste of the original). Now we've got what amounts to an invective-laden Sue Isside note, screaming for vengeance and letting us know that his miserable life will end in the early hours of the morning. And yet...and yet...here he is. Raise your hand if you’re surprised. Hmmm, nobody? Kinda what I thought, too." Oh, G&GBF, how did your non-reunion with the Briants go?
I think hes bern driven off the site, so no need to rehash everything at this point in time
Thanks for your second comment Phil Ossifer and your comment Right. It is appreciated.
I guess I have to keep repeating this till you all get it. What you see above is George&GermaineBriantFan copy/pasting old comments that pertained to other entries. This is strictly him. No one else is participating. Take it up with ChuckyG (ha!) if you don’t like it, but keep in mind he’s allowed this to go on since it started.
I truly thought the parody itself was someone else commenting on it all. I wasn't referring to the comments
Good point. To the average person, it looks like an intentionally bad send up of a parody, but the OP is literally incapable of writing anything better.
Thank you Right and Captain Obvious for your latest comments. I am really appreciative of your feedback.
The author of the parody has authorized comments, and wants YOUR feedback.
