The Interwebs are a mass of little extended in-jokes (like calling it the Interwebs - ha ha ha, I am so droll!). You've been rickrolled, trolololled and in all probability have seen Hitler ranting about everything from Justin Beiber to Ryan Air by way of the vuvuzela.

The Chinese, for example, have their own thing going on reworking the kitschy communist masterpiece that is the 1976 full Technicolor Long March Song Cycle. These dudes have been artistically recut to perform a host of alternative songs by the likes of Lady GaGa, Queen and the Baha Men.
