Did you know that if you slow down a water balloon popping, you can see the water hold in the shape of the balloon for a moment? Crazy huh?

Did you know that if you slow down a golfball being hit, you can see it compress to like 3/4 the size?

How 'bout this one? Did you know that if you slow down a metalhead freak flipping his dreadlocks, absolutely nothing interesting happens?

You're missing the point of slow-motion. It's supposed to be so I can see something I didn't the first time — maybe the momentary look of terror on your face as you get owned in a mosh pit. I see no such enjoyment factor in your attempt at the slow-mo hair moves of a L'Oreal Paris commercial. (Though, I quite liked the Trampled Cheerleader's crack at it at the end of her web redemption.)

This video is also accompanied by the dude's song "Rag Tag Flag." I can understand why he'd use this tactic to promote it. "Freak On a Leash" proved that heavey metal plus a slow-motion video is a winning combination… if you want to be on TRL in the 90s and then never heard from ever again.

Pay attention to the drummer hitting his sticks together in the background to cue his band and interrupt these jackasses.

Here's what they're trying to explain to us: "Maggots" hate "Juggalos" because they're faggots. "Juggalos" hate "Maggots" because they're faggots. Listen, fellas, you're talking into a webcam in a style pioneered by a teenager named lonelygirl15. Fuck the mainstream!

I'm still confused. ICP fans and Slipknot fans hate each other. But when I see a mosh pit, my impression is that everyone hates each other. There is no "liking" in Slipknot music. In fact, listening to that music even makes me hate myself. You guys are avoiding the real problem. Put on some Bob Dylan.
