Yea, I know there was another thread about this meme but mine has a a pic and a link with even more pics so it's better. http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/48-xzibit-yo-dawg 
It's probably not even that funny to most but the pure over-the-topness of the the Pimp My Ride series makes these hilarious to me. That, and Xzibits cheeseface is by far the best I've ever seen. I mean seriously, they put LCD screens in a dude's bumper. His BUMPER!! I'm actually surprised at the lack of pimp my ride "yo dawg" memes.
Anywho, laugh, cry, hate, stare confused at the screen, whatever. I just think that these deserve more than a closed thread

There was a thread about this very recently where a TB'er said it was actually a friend of his who created this meme, hoping it would take off. |

The guy is Xzibit (aka Alvin Nathaniel Joiner) who came to fame as a rapper. Here's (I believe) his biggest selling single.
He then starred in the MTV show "Pimp My Ride" where they would rebuild, repaint and then trick out someone's broke down car. The meme is a take off on the ridiculous things they would put in people's cars: TVs, video game systems, fishtanks etc.
At the end of the show when they revealed the new car, Xzibit would usually say, "I heard you like coffee, so we put an espresso machine in your car" or something along those lines.
The only thing I can't explain is why people think it's funny. I suppose if I'd only seen one of them I'd laugh. Otherwise I think you have to be a 15 year old boy.
EDIT: Damn bongo. Damn slow typing fingers. Damn dirty apes. |
