Steve-O Responded To Bam Margera's Diss Track About Him Being A Bad Skateboarder By Making A Video Of Him Skateboarding With Tony Hawk
So I blogged about this diss track that Bam Margera made about the Jackass fellas earlier today, which is something I still can't believe is a real thing. If you didn't click the blog, I forgive you even if you are taking food out of my kids mouths and to be honest don't even blame you since listening to the song is essentially putting your ears through a beatdown on par with the ones Bam used to put on his poor dad back in the day.
I did point out however that the most fucked up thing mentioned was Bam saying that all his old cast mates stunk out loud at skateboarding.
The real Ether-level bars weren't Bam challenging Johnny Knoxville to a fight (BuyRNR.com) or calling Jeff Tremaine a fat greedy pussy. It was Bam calling out everyone's skateboarding abilities, which you know has to chap their asses because when push comes to shove, all these guys just want to hang out and do some crazy shit from a Tony Hawk video game.
Well wouldn't you know it, Steve-O responded with a video of his own!
Blogger's Note: I knew about this video but forgot to include it in my first blog so I'm double dipping this story since it's the slowest time of the content calendar. #BarstoolConfessions
Goddammit that video is so fucking awesome and not just because it's the exact way a 7th grader would respond to a diss about someone criticizing his skateboarding with some sweet tricks. Responding to a diss track by pushing your own merch is Portnoy-level Big Brain thinking, which is pretty much the nicest compliment someone around these parts can receive. Getting the biggest name in skateboarding history to crush some halfpipes(?) with you then having him film you ride up some ramps completely neutralizes every mean word said about you skating.
However, having "How You Like Me Now" play in the background is the killshot since no video in the history of man hasn't been awesome as that song plays. I can't tell you how many movie trailers or montages I saw that were awesome because someone got the rights to play this classic from The Heavy. If you played "How You Like Me Now" in the background of Bam's god awful diss track, it actually would've been awesome even if it was just a glob of audio clumped together like when you mix all the paint colors to get that poop brown color.
So I guess we are going to have to chalk up this round for Steve-O even though I just want everyone to squash the beef, get well, and be pals (I wouldn't be opposed to it if they want to subject themselves to more pain in a future Jackass movie. But at this point I just want these guys to be happy considering all the laughs they have given the world over the years).
