We’ve seen some pretty good jokes come out of the Netflix/Qwikster debacle. Weird Al Yankovic weighed in on Twitter with, “Next time Netflix wants to make a rash, impulsive decision, maybe they should just buy a puppy or get a tattoo. #RIPQwikster.” You know you’ve screwed up when Weird Al is attacking.

When something’s entertaining and informational all at once, it’s like a healthy meal that you actually like. Thank you Chef!
