Visiting SnacksAndShit.com is not just another way to put off studying for finals. A visit to SnacksAndShit.com — a site devoted solely to making fun of real lyrics from hip-hop and rap songs — is an enlightening experience. “No Room Service Just Snacks and Shit” reads the tagline at the top of the page, which is the Jay-Z line that first inspired Los Angeles-based writers Chris Macho and Chris D’Elia to create the site. Take a look at lyric No. 466, from “Me, You, Him, and Her” by Beanie Sigel: “I f*ck around and have you sleepin’ underneath somethin’.” Macho and D’Elia’s response to that profound statement: “This is by far the VAGUEST way to threaten somebody.” They continue to list the top three other vaguest ways to threaten someone. The post carries the tag “So vague, so insecure about maybe getting his ass kicked.” Brilliant.
