If you want a good laugh, go to "Smells Like Nirvana" on YouTube and read some of the comments from Kurt Cobain fanatics. They usually go along the lines of: "ZOMG! How dare you parody a rock legend! Poor Kurt. If he were alive and saw this, he'd kick Al's butt!"

Still pictures of Al dancing always kind of look like someone misread the instructions for their Weird Al figurine and put some of the parts on backwards.

Okay, it's not like John Podesta and Hillary Clinton were discussing their favorite Weird Al song, but someone was forwarding around a Washington Post article about Obama telling some jokes at a Gridiron Club dinner and it includes this passage:
Only in Washington does this scene not necessarily strike people as strange: Hundreds of reporters hobnobbing with the government officials they normally cover in an evening of fine dining and parody songs that make Weird Al Yankovic seem hip.
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.
