Tetris theme gets retrofitted with lyrics

See, that right there is why we're bloggers and not songwriters: An idea that we can only drum up seven syllables on is enough for YouTube's brentalfloss to write a complete set of lyrics to the soundtrack permanently etched in all our psyches: "Korobeiniki."
Be forewarned: This isn't for kids nor the workplace, and some may find it a touch offensive. But we're almost certain he's got his tongue planted firmly in his cheek. Almost. ... His tongue's in his cheek, right?

Not nearly amusing enough.

Quit your day job Fred Durst.

I can't stand this guy. He's such an attention whore. He made one mildly-amusing video about Mega Man and now he's determined to ride it for all it's worth.

I take it this is your first YouTube video.
Roto13 @ Dec 15th 2008 1:43PM
This guy is even more shameless and attention whorish than the average YouTuber.

Hay guyz come look at my vlo..
Oh, I see. Non-believers.

He is an OU fan. That says enough.

Weird Al doesn't have to swear.
Poopie mouth!

You people are stupid and all of the songs you made suck compared to this one.
Dan Bugglin @ Dec 15th 2008 1:41PM
Err... Tetris songs are from Russia. AFAIK they do have lyrics already. In Russian.

True story. I sang the original song with a choir while I was in college

...
heh?
Squeak @ Dec 15th 2008 2:19PM
Ugh.
I immediately regret watching that.
Plus, I'd take Pokemon Puzzle Challenge or Bust A Move over Tetris any day.
Covarr @ Dec 15th 2008 2:45PM
This guy obviously hasn't played a Tetris the Grand Master game. Also, he appears to be a dumbass.

I like this kind of thing. More retrofitted songs:

I feel dumber for watching that.
AwesomeTown @ Dec 15th 2008 3:58PM
I did not find that funny at all.

Joystiq: Every time you feel the urge grace content of this quality with a blog post (as you do from time to time), just stop for a minute and think.
Or at least sneak the words "Jonathan Blow" into the headline somewhere so I can know to immediately move on without wasting time.
GatorSax2010 @ Dec 15th 2008 4:25PM
I really like his Mega Man 3 song. This one... Not so much.
Also, I noticed his OU hat... Lame.
Mark @ Dec 15th 2008 4:33PM
This guy is the poster child for "waste of oxygen." Could we please free up the resources he uses for life and re-allocate them to people that actually deserve them?
GohanGVO @ Dec 15th 2008 6:18PM
Haters be damned. I lol'd.
gst @ Dec 15th 2008 10:46PM
Oh, um, so the new cool thing to do is to hate on this guy...? Well, okay.
---Dude, that sucked and was horrible and not funny. God what an attention whore, not like all those youtube videos made by people who I think are funny. Like, the attention THEY want is not whorish...its pure, chaste attention.---
There well that was fun. Nice to ride on the bandwagon with ya'll.
