I have no idea who said it first before EVERYONE on Twitter started stealing it, so I won't link to any of them here. But I absolutely loved the tweet "Donald Glover is doing what Kanye West thinks he's doing."

I am either too old or too white to enjoy that. Glad all the kids dig it. Good for them.

After this past weekend's SNL, I'm all Donny Glover'd out.

Too much Donald Glover? No such thing

 

[Krisken]

I kinda like it, and I’m old, white, and don’t care for rap or hip hop. It’s sorta been swirling in my brain since I watched it.

No shame in being a Chrissexual.

Hey... men can like each other without it turning sexual, you deviant...

All you gotta do is say "no homo" and bam!

I'm sure the video has a message and is important. but I got through 30 seconds and I could not tolerate it anymore
......
welp, maybe I'm getting old

Nothing sexual about a good ol' fashion, brah...

 

[Celt Z]

Hmmmm... it would seem I'm running the wrong way.

In all seriousness, though, I thought the video had a lot of interesting commentary and layers. I don't think I'd ever replay the song without the visuals, but I'm definitely impressed with what Donald and the director crafted.

Remember, Glover in that metaphor is not "you," it is an aspect of your self. So, for you, it might be "my tenuous grasp on marital fidelity"

Hope springs eternal, eh?

[Cajungal]

I fucking LOVE it. The vacuous-sounding chorus at the beginning. The shock. The confederate soldier pants. The tenderly-handled firearms. It's great.

Hey, I'm already the husband-approved waifu.

WEll, Trump did say he was bringing back the "good ol'days". Now all that's missing is the CIA dousing random people on the streets with LSD.

Would this help?

That was hilarious, and convinced me to watch the original video later.

 

[PatrThom]

I still want to watch the original video later, I’m never where I can watch AND hear it at the same time.

Admit it, you’re 3D printing some of them at this point, aren’t you? Just to take some of the load off your wife?
