Video: The Pretty Reckless – “Make Me Wanna Die”
I was instructed to post this video because, in the wise words of Third World Timmy, “People love these jailbait chicks for some reason.” When I actually watched the video, I was pretty underwhelmed and didn’t understand the urgency behind Tim’s message. Then I read the accompanying press release and discovered the frontwoman for the Pretty Reckless is none other than Taylor Momsen, the 16-year old Gossip Girl heartbreaker who also, once upon a time, played a pretty large part in one of Tim and Mr. 51%’s all-time favorite movies: How The Grinch Stole Christmas (or, as I call it, Jim Carrey’s Vanity Knows No Bounds, and Ron Howard Is A Dumbass.) Anyway, this is not the official video for the song (going by the press release again here), but one is forthcoming and we will undoubtedly post that here too, because (I guess) we heart perverts. So watch this, sickos, and enjoy it if you can. I personally find the juxtaposition of a teenage girl desperately trying to appear sluttish and a gang of burly dudes desperately trying to appear not desperate as they pound out boilerplate grunge riffs (behind a teenage girl desperately trying to appear sluttish) absolutely HILARIOUS. (Pay attention, especially, to the one dude’s comically atrocious soul patch. 1995 called, dude: the alternative coffehouse misses you!) Check it:

You do have a way with words don’t you.
Are you saying that in a negative, sarcastic way, or do you really admire my rhetoric? I need to know!
It was truly funny. You should forewarn me when I’m on the record from here on out so I can act more presidential in my emails.
That would sorta suck the fun out of our relationship.
