Smags love boy bands...

(SmagLy)

Yes, it's true... The smags are headed to the NKOTBSB concert this weekend.  Smag-Jen and I bought these tickets last fall.  I'm soooo super stoked. (sidenote: to those of you that saw this show at Fenway where Marky Mark introduced NKOTB, I'm still jealous)  As an old-school BSB fan, it will be 1999 again for a few hours - and it will be awesome.  When even your mom knows the words to "I Want It That Way," then you KNOW that a boy band has truly made it.  (This may not be the best measure of credibility though, to this day, the only pop song my mom truly remembers is "My Humps" - but that's a whole 'nother story.) 

I was going to post the video for "I Want It That Way" to pump everyone else up - or just make them jealous - but then I found this video from back in the day.  And it was too good not to pass on, like when it made the rounds in college.  This pretty much sums up what goes on in my head when I hear this song anyways.

Black and yellow, black and yellow ....

So the first time I heard that Wiz Khalifa song I thought, "oh, interesting... is this a song about black and asian people?" Actually, I said that out loud.  And was made fun of for doing so after we found out it was about the Pittsburgh Steelers.  I maintain that if they were talking specifically about Hines Ward, I'd also be correct, but that's not the point.

Today Alex sent me a link to this Funny or Die parody of that song, which is "at least more in line with what we thought this song was about" originally.  It's called: "Black and Jewish"
