"Freak of the Week": PAY ATTENTION TO ME NOW - Sofaspud - 05-14-2019



(Suggested power is like the thread title says...)

(Also, mostly unrelated: the animated segments of that video make me think that Bluth had a hand in it, though almost assuredly not.)

For the duration of this song (YouTube says 5:20), everyone around cannot help themselves: Sort of like a train wreck... that's on fire... and still exploding... but safely behind what you hope is bulletproof glass so you keep watching in sick fascination to the exclusion of all else...

Some of the lyrics:

I'm your freak of the week

I'm the new black
I'm opium to thee
Will do anything
For popularity


and


Spreading like the plague
Hole in one, touché
Seven million views
In a single day
Who's your daddy now?
Who's leading the way?

Those lyrics aren't visible without highlighting in Felix Sans.

I... don't know why?  I just copy-pasted them in.  Must be some weird hidden formatting.

(Obligatory cane-shaking at these modern WYSIsupposedlyWYG editors; back in my day we had plain ASCII and we liked it, uphill both ways, etc)

Manually re-typed:

At a guess, the copypasta included a color attribute on the text that just happened to match the background of the theme, i.e. black.  The easy fix would be to edit the post using the advanced editor, highlight the problem text and click <Remove Formatting>. That's the "A" with the little "x" in a red circle in the lower right corner of the icon , btw.
