Trapped in the Cultural Phenomenon

Yuletide on YouTube: Trapped in the Clauset. A seasonally inspired parody of R. Kelly's, um, masterpiece(?) has been making its way all over the internets this past week. The three part series is blatantly absurd, while there aren't any midgets Rudolph, an elf, and maybe even the birthday boy himself show up. Sacrilege? Yes. Funny? Sure. "That's what you say when you're Santa: you say Ho three times in a row." That's not the best, but you really should watch all three parts for yourself and we don't want to give any of the cliffhangers away. The original chapters of Trapped in the Closet were their own parody. Yet, we're surprised that we haven't seen more rips on the modern classic. Maybe the R. Kelly style is just seeping into the contemporary poetry of the missed connection section of Craigslist. Dare you to read this missed connection posted yesterday while humming Trapped in the Closet.
