"Weird Al" Yankovic's parody of Robin Thicke's "Blurred lines" is probably the best thing on the internet at the moment.

What are "Kalopsia's" exactly?
Following the release of Queens of the Stone Age's brilliant video for I appear missing, a second video entitled Kalopsia appeared a few hours ago, and picks up where the previous video left off.
Clocking in at just under two minutes, many are saying that this is not the full version of Kalopia. I certainly hope so, so that we are afforded more of Trent Reznor's 'breathing,' one of the crazy credits given via the band's Facebook page. Here are the full credits:
"Joey Castillo- DrumsDean Fertita- Piano, Rhodes, Korg MS-10, GuitarJoshua Homme- Vocals, Guitar, Air, HellsMuch like the opening title for I appear missing, Kalopsia's title also uses lop-sided quotation marks, further adding to the '999' theme evident in the ...Like Clockwork promotional artworks.
Trent Reznor- Vocals, Breathing, Kick, Snare,
Michael Shuman- Bass, Moog, Hells, Kalopsia's
Troy Van Leeuwen- Guitar, Moog Lap Steel, Hells, Kalopsia's"

Are the Queens of the Stone Age really missing?
I appear missing is the second single taken from Queens of the Stone Age's '...Like clockwork' and the first to be released with a music video. I'm a big fan of the style of animation chosen for the video, as well as the song. I was a little apprehensive after listening to the first single from the album, but after hearing I appear missing I feel more confident that this album is going to be another absolute goodie, perhaps even on a par with Songs for the Deaf.
An interesting observation is that a single quotation mark is used to at the beginning of the sub title, while double quotation marks are used at the end. The single opening apostrophe also appears to be backwards, for it's placement relative to the text. The three punctuation marks together look like a series of '9s.' So far a lot of the imagery used to promote the album has featured various time telling devices displaying 9 o'clock (or 9:99 in the case of the digital wrist watches), or have three '9s' visible somewhere in the picture.
I'm not yet sure of the significance of all the '9' references, other that three inverted nines makes '666,' the supposed "number of the beast."
