Failure of the Day: Sorry kid. Your birthday’s been canceled.

To keep the Artifacts of the Muppets meme alive and kicking here at the Museum, we are proud to feature the Peaches’ “F*** the Pain Away” sung by Miss Piggy video that you knew was eventually coming.

While Merrill Beth Nisker (aka Peaches) is a great musical performance artist, watching this video makes us realize that this song was always better suited for none other than America’s favorite voluptuous swine bitch.

If you’re live isn’t lived via your own music video, then what are you living for?

If you don’t illustrate your love through a viral musically-oriented video of your wedding (a la the Chris Brown “Forever” wedding) or wedding montage (a la the above footage), are you really in love?

If your wedding isn’t nationally recognized, did you really even get married? (via the “if a tree falls in the forest” meme)

If you haven’t figured out some way to make yourself internet famous yet, what is your purpose?

P.S. of the Day: The song featured in this video is really obscure and you’ve probably never heard of it.  It’s by a band called Passion Pit (I had no idea at first, I had to do a lot of google lyric searching to figure it out).  -  Is anything obscure anymore?

In Case You Missed It of the Day/In case you need more ammo to add to your argument that auto-tuning is the worst thing that’s ever happened to music: Auto-Tune the wolves.

The human voice < pitch-corrected animal howls.

Interview Magazine once again takes pure cultural mediocrity and makes it look savvy / classy / artsy.  How do they do it? / Why do they do it?…

This time its the fellas from “Jersey Shore” in a photoshoot with bombshell babe Bar Refaeli.

Happy Taxes Day Obamacare and Democrats know where your money is and will take it from under your pillow while you’re sleeping Day.  But apparently that’s everyday.

Thanks Good Ol’ Party for keepin’ it so very very real.

21st Century Advertising is the Scariest, to put it nicely.

The Museum from here on out supports any social or political movements to stop CGI animation for ever more.

Is this blatant racism?  Or just straight up some good old fashion in-your-face honesty that Australia can handle better than America ever could.

Either way, it’s an advertisement for KFC.  So we have to argue that it has racist intent.

The Artifacts of Modernity Online Museum is proud to present a very special tribute to a very special scholar by featuring this beloved video clip that pays homage to the most wonderful (and by wonderful, we mean horrifying (and by horrifying, we mean hilarious (and by hilarious, we mean that it’s literally destroying Middle America))) drug of the late 20th and 21st century: Meth.

With this video clip, we’d like to officially inaugurate an entirely new exhibit in the Museum that further explores the cultural enigma of crystal meth, its primary constituents, and why it may or may not be part of a balanced breakfast.

So to launch the new exhibit and simultaneously and more importantly pay loving memory to comedian, rising film star and real-life roommate Sandy “Scholar Rob” Roberts, the Museum brings you this installment of the silly web video series ‘Roommates’ (ba doot doooo, chaaa!).

“The Homosexuals” - A 1967 CBS News Report

This all seems so terrifying, yet it all seems potentially true.

Around the 4:00 minute mark and the 7:00 minute mark are particularly good moments.

Journalism needs to get back to more of this kind of reporting, really uncovering the creepy taboos of our society.
