Here I was, all set to flick Steve-O’s “Unicycle Poo Barf” back into viewable circulation, when Greg Wolf walked into my office this morning and said there was a music issue with it. Never mind the fact it was only Roger Alan Wade’s “If You’re Gonna Be Dumb,” we still have to do things by the licensing books and we certainly don’t want to shaft Roger out of any potential revenue. So, back into shackles it went, hopefully to be liberated on another day when Steve-O’s marathon of puke can retch once more in all its unfettered glory. In the meantime, here’s Brandon Dicamillo and Bam Margera in the “Poo Dollar.” This isn’t necessarily the most original prank, but the two newscasters certainly upped the confrontational ante and there is a prime example of how to effectively diffuse a situation through absurdity and confusion, as opposed to boring old fisticuffs.
