History Funny / WeirdAlYankovic

** "It's some big fat hermaphrodite with Music/AFlockOfSeagulls haircut and only one nostril. Aw man, I hate it when I'm right!"

** Al was a contestant on ''[[Series/{{Jeopardy}} Rock and Roll Jeopardy!]]'' in 2001. [[SelfFulfillingProphecy Guess]] [[ForegoneConclusion what]] [[LifeImitatesArt happened?]]

'''Jessica:''' [[PronouncingMyNameForYou Uh, my name is Jessica]] ''[[PronouncingMyNameForYou Sam]]'' [[PronouncingMyNameForYou pson]].\\

'''Jessica:''' Uh, my name is Jessica ''Sam''pson.\\

** Even better because not only has Prince consistently denied Al the right to parody his songs, but the number 7 is an arc number for him. Weird Al ribbed him in more ways than one.

* "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch", just from how [[StylisticSuck deliberately bad he made it.]]

* The account given in The Saga Begins of Yoda warning Qui-Gon about Anakin.

* From a 1996 special (with the original/parody videos): Al has a tattoo done of "Kennedy 4 Ever" (The VJ), then later on adding a rendering of her face. When the latter doesn't turn out so well, he asks to have it "crossed out" instead of going through a removal--And is ''agonizing'' going into the commercial break.

** The Womanizer. My God, the Womanizer.

** The fact that the original version is so [[{{Narm}} over-the-top]][[note]]For the uninformed, it involves a LoveDodecahedron, copious amounts of gun misuse, a midget, a stuttering pimp, and the mafia. It also goes on for an innumerable amount of installments, literally ever single one of which ends with a ShockingSwerve. It's one of [[SoBadItsGood those works]].[[/note]] that the only way Al could made it funny was to have the lyrics be as banal as possible.

--->'''Emo:''' ''(with the caption "Emo Philips: [[{{Irony}} Friend]]" on screen)'' You know how you pee in the toilet and it sounds like [[ShockingSwerve someone commanding you to kill Weird Al Yankovic]]?

[[TakeThat Just stick it in your pointy ear]]\\

** Suing Delta Airlines because Al's trip to New Jersey sucked.
** He sued Ben Affleck, but there's a space where he gives the explanation. Then, he says, "Aw, do I even need a reason!?"

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib2Vl7JEjfc The Mysterious Floating Orb]].
This is Weird Al in the wild and it's GREAT.

** "I would live-tweet a funeral, take selfies with the deceased..." followed by, "...If I'm bit by a zombie, I'm probably not telling you...if you're okay with that then you're probably tacky, too!" I guess the subject of the funeral got up and bit him.

** There's a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo45pBJdcUM behind-the-scene video]] comparing between the final result of the video and the pre-edit one where Weird Al's face has not been superimposed on Vlada Gorbaneva's. The fact that Vlada managed to keep a [[{{StealthPun}} completely straight expression]] during the entire shot (with a few minor lapses) [[TheComicallySerious is hilarious in and of itself]].

** During the ''Straight Outta Lynwood'' tour, Santa Claus was replaced by [[DisguisedInDrag a man dressed as a prostitute.]] Al simply pointed at him and shouted "[[GettingCrapPastTheRadar Ho!]]"

** "The world was our burrito. So we got married and we bought us a house and had two beautiful children, Nathaniel and ''Film/SuperFly''!
** [[SarcasmMode "NO, I want you to cut off my arms and legs with a chainsaw!"]] ''({{beat}})'' [[SarcasmBlind "So I did.]] And then he starts getting all indignant on me. He was like, 'Hey, man! I was just being sarcastic!' Well, that's just great. How was I supposed to know? I'm not a mind-reader for crying out loud. Besides, now he's got a really cute nickname: Torso Boy! So what's he complaining about?"

** In the liner notes, the lyrics are cut off partway through this song, replaced by this message:

The fact that Vlada managed to keep a [[{{Pun}} poker face]] during the entire shot (with a few minor lapses) [[TheComicallySerious is hilarious in and of itself]].

Some of Usher's dance moves and gestures fit the lyrics ''so well'', it was uncanny--for example, "when I'm kissing you, I fantasize you're a midget!" plays when Usher kneels in front of the woman and hugs her legs, and the spoken part in the bridge "remember that shirt you got me for my birthday? Well, I returned it for store credit.[[note]]That-that thing was hideous, what were you ''thinking''?[[/note]]" plays just after Usher has stripped off his undershirt in the video. At other junctures, the lyrics make Usher's dramatic gesturing narmtastically funny: for instance, he agonizes on his knees over giving his significant other buttered toast he dropped and picked up off of the floor ''as if it's the worst thing he's ever done''. One gets the sense that Al was writing the lyrics while watching the original music video.
