Oh Dear God.
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen. Ever.
I wonder how many people are going “wtf?”
i am
Oh my. That’s VERY important information.
Meat loaf is the best
wtf?
wtf
wtf?
LMAOOOOO
Awesome.
Haha, I love graphs like these.
Friggin. Awesome. That’s all I have to say.
I heard through the rumor mill that Meatlof was unwilling to lick between her toes to remove the build-up of toe jam.
What a wimp.
that is genius.
Fantastic.
Huh??? I don’t understand…
wtf?
I’m a little stuck for words here - not quite sure how to tell you but I did that once .
wow, this is preety great. Now I will have the song stuck in my head ” I would do anything for love anything you’ve been dreamin’ of… but I won’t do that….” haha awesome.
Oh Yesssssssssss
lawl i get it
this sucks
Anybody who said WTF? needs to listen to Meatloaf. Go now…*shakes head* just go.
fuggin’ awesome!!!!! VERY creative..
3 thumbs up!!!
I definitely thought it was meatloaf in the hamburger dinner sense. I didn’t get it. But now that I understand it is Meatloaf in the amazing singer sense I love it.
… His name was Robert Paulsen.
I never really thought he would do “that” but it’s nice to have it clear in chart form.
Phenominal, love it…now that song will be stuck in my head all day
The WTF? people are priceless…a testament to all the garbage on the radio now while quality songs go the way of the dinosaurs
A Venn Diagram would probably be more useful. But it’s still funny.
Good Lord, I lol’d.
For those of you who said WTF and are still confused, Meatloaf is a singer/actor. One of his more famous songs has a line in it that says, “I would do anything for love, but I won’t do that.”
SO good.
Even at the young age of 23 I still feel really old because the separation of generations is so large that that far too many people don’t know what this is referencing or who Meatloaf is. Think of the big moose in “Fight Club”, that’s Meatloaf, then Youtube “I Would do Anything for Love” and you will see one of the greatest Rock ballads ever.
The graph is amazing. Just watching the video makes me feel like feeling again.
Why is everyone saying this is awesome? This is not awesome, this doesnt make any sense. Randomness is only funny when applied properly in proper context with proper elements. Stop supporting these kids ideas of comedy.
To Jessica - maybe they know the Meatloaf lyrics but they don’t know about pie charts…
Hilarious! Like the “wtf” comments. Funny stuff!
I laughed out loud!:]]]]
nice illustration;]
Wow, you guys love Meatloaf. Just to make sure this song really stays in your head, check my latest post
BAHAHAHAHAAA.
lol
…yeah, and chuck norris can touch mc hammer!
Another one for wft…
Is this referring to meatloaf as in food or the singer or what ever he was??????
I know this is Meatloaf and I’ve heard the song-but WTF is he talking about?!
thats awsome love it
i hate that song with a pulsating passion
wow.
First, lol @ all teh noobs who don’t get it.
Second, roffel-mayo @ graph.
lovez it.
First of all, im sorry some of us wern’t born with the knowledge to walk before crawling Mr.Shefferson..gee, us noobs eh? lol urself
The reason everyone doesnt get this is coz diff ppl hav appreciation for different humour
LOL, priceless. I really needed this laugh today. And i agree lol@who doesn’t get it
we love the loaf the robert paulsen joke was hilarious to
Personally I always thought he probably would ‘do that’ as long as no one found out.
jesus christ stumble will do a lot for a subpar joke.
meatloaf is teh b3st i lulzzz’d“!!111.
Wow…this is awesome. Much agreed, lol@those that don’t get it.
WTF?
OMG FRICKEN AWESOME yay. its funny XD
Lol that’s pretty good! check out the 90’s flowchart too
http://uk.geocities.com/eloxqueen/90s_flowchart.png
Wayyyy better if you dont know who Meat Loaf is.
…HIS NAME IS ROBERT PAULSON.. (Oh Yeah and mini Jack Black in Pick of Destiny)
This was probably the funniest example of the snowball effect I’ve seen while ’stumbling’… i chuckled at the meatloaf chart but these posts are the poop. LOL ‘wtf-ers’… LOL…
Oh man. If you guys like that, you’re gonna love this:
http://www.aclevercookie.com/rap-lyrics-explained-with-charts-and-graphs/
If you like rap, that is.
I *loled*
ROFL. That’s as good as the map showing Ludacris’s different “hoes” in area codes. Or the flash game I saw of MC Hammer which you could never touch. ;p Great job on that one.
For the more musically retarded generation who view bands like Good Charolette, 30 Seconds Before Mars, Paramore, etc as “unique and original” music. Please for the love of god go grab your older siblings CD’s and your dad’s records and go listen to them.
Do you think that is the same “that” that Daryl Hall and John Oats can’t go for?
ok…..if you don’t know meatloaf…. you won’t get the reference…. so shut the fuck up….
however, awesome!
Amazing… stumbled.
In death, a member of Project Mayhem has a name. His name is Robert Paulson.
LOL THIS IS SO CREATIVE>?!~@!@#?!@QK SO CREATIVE BEST GRAPH EVER!!!! fucking tools, all of you think this is hilarious just because you know what it is, not because it’s hilarious “FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE I FUCKING UNDERSTAND SOMETHING, FOR ONCE” and you think you guys are hot shit, fucking go to hell, this is the stupidest shit i’ve ever fucking seen in my lfe
Quoting Meatloaf:
“I would do anything for love, but I won’t do that.”
oh nice. i just laughed and laughed but actually stopped strangely before falling to the floor. so it would be something like LLbsbF or a NROFL but LAL. and now tell me how got this joke and who didn’t that’s why each one takes everything in life different and why humanity needs each other.
lol thats hilarious
especially how many people don’t get it
okay, all of you who do not renenber “Paradise by the Dashboard Lights” or “Bat Outta Hell”, if you’ve never heard it you won’t understand it. Do a little research and find out a little what a great entertainer this guy is. Granted, he’s not the best lookin’ guy in the world, but neither am I. Give him a chance, you’ll be amazed! And, no, “I’ll do anything for love” is far from his best song.
LOL that’s funny.
I love it.
Now thats funny! I’ve always wondered what that one thing he wouldn’t do was………. Ouch!
i think the that that he is referring to has to do with “one cup” - imagine that meatloafonecup.com
……………………….
I now have that song stuck in my head…
Omigod. This Is Funny. I Read Most Of the Replies People Sent In And Wow This Generation Is So Brainwashed By Music On The Radio [Im Glad To Say Im Not Brainwashed]. I Love This Song && Most Deff. Love This Chart That Made It So Very Clear. Meatloaf… Hahaha…
Hahaha! What have you done? It will be in my head forever now!!
Damn…I don’t see that on the graph.
It is my burning desire to know what meatloaf won’t do.
Meatloaf, the guy, is a junior varsity girls soft ball coach at a high school in my town in CT.
holy crap!! i love that song.
:)) thank you, whoever you are!! you made my life a whole lot better! ok… maybe it’s not that dramatic, but i actually cried and puonted my fists at some innocent bystander while digesting this. i’m just a bit outraged at the kids who other than having no taste in music seem to be losing more of their sense of humor with every generation.
Wow. Just wow. This is freakin awesome! And there are so many posts like,
“Why is everyone saying this is awesome? This is not awesome, this doesnt make any sense. Randomness is only funny when applied properly in proper context with proper elements. Stop supporting these kids ideas of comedy.”
All I have to say is go get a life. Learn some music, stop hatin on people when you’re the idiot who doesn’t get it. MEATLOAF IS A BAND. THIS IS A REFERENCE TO A SONG. IF YOU DON’T GET IT, THEN LOOK IT UP. OR CONTINUE BEING A DUMBASS MAKING AN IDIOT OF YOURSELF.
This is the reason the invented the internet…
haha.
i love the loaf
anybody ever see “Witness the Loaf”!?!
SOOO good.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psAHCclrdzI
this is funny,good song also. but i guess you would have to know the song to get it.
something i’ve been wondering about for years. thanks
Well, at least 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.
Brilliant!
Anyone who says “WTF” is clearly too young to have ever listened to the dulcet sounds of Meatloaf. Newbs.
have you really never heard that song “i would do anything 4 luv”?
Stalker, Its not even one of his best songs but one of his most well known (Try “objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are”)
Second best pie chart ever, only being beaten by one which showed what part of the chart represented pac man
Ok meatloaf is shit, but u r a total retard if u don’t get this. The joke is meatloaf will do anything for love even that because he looks like a flayed scrotum.
Amazing! I love it!
you know, sometimes you just need silliness for the sake of silliness. it was funny. if you didn’t like it, that’s okay, if you don’t like meat loaf, that’s okay too. sometimes people say that they don’t like things just because they don’t understand it… no biggie. i loved it
i just don’t think it’s something that everyone should get their knickers in a twist over… let’s just be happy 
Too bad meatloaf the band sucks so much… I prefer it in the sence of the dinner!
Yay for dinner!
the graph is wrong because there is nothing outside anything, not that.
so what
best. pie chart. ever.
I’ve changed over these past few years…. I’m willing to do THAT for love now.
THAT IS SO AMAZING.
Hahhahha.
Brilliant. Just Brilliant.
Surprising how many people dont get this.
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/graphs/
There’s a shit load of them here.
wtf?
Good stuff… You should submit this to GraphJam.com.
i credit the graphmaker for clearly being witty, and making me laugh a lot, but please, lord, tell me the people in the comments section claiming meatloaf makes great music are just using “great” in an ironic sense. kitschy 80’s pop-synth-metal-ballads go the way of the dinosaur, yippie - there is plenty of great music, old (beatles, zeppelin, etc.) and new (white stripes, modest mouse) still on the radio.
This is great! Im constantly asking people at work “What is the one thing he wont do?”. Ive recieved many different answers over the years, from disgusting too confusing. But, I still must ask you all what you personally think. Who out there has the answer to the age old question, What is the one thing that Meatloaf wont do for love?
hilarious, i love it
OMG, meatloaf must have been doing alot for love, cause him AND his SON,(who looks to be about 17) are in a TV commercial together. its pretty funny, But Not as funny as this GRAPH, This thing is fantabulous.. thats right, FANTABULOUS
meatloaf ftw
This was cute & witty… but garsh, some people are making it seem like it’s the theory of relativity or something.
The post was mildly funny. Back when, the song was awesome. The number of WTF and clueless comments are much funnier - kind of watching a game of Telephone, each step of the way……….LOL
Good gag; sorry though, for some of you…his real name is NOT Robert Paulsen!
His real name is Robert Aday from northern Texas. Being a ‘noob’ doesn’t excuse
social deprivation.
hehe possibly gave me tears or laughter
The more important question is, how many times is Meatloaf going to keep recording new lyrics over the same songs and releasing it as a “new” album? A pleasant & powerful voice, but without a good A&R man, a bit of a one-trick-pony.
oh god…I was eleven, and I had the cassingle.
I believe the thing that Meat Loaf (note, two words, both capitalised) won’t do is eat his greens, the flabby old salad dodger. I’ll be honest, I never liked his music one little bit, even cheesier than the 23″ pizza ol’ Gutbuster would guzzle for a pre-breakfast snack. So I was delighted when I heard he’s considering giving up his music career to concentrate on his acting. Which he’s much better at. However, it appears he’s planning another tour for this year. You can’t keep an old (fat) dog down
Meat Loaf Is a Vegetarian HAHA
LOL you all who don’t know what Meatloaf wouldn’t do, just search the lyrics, and you’ll find, that what he won’t do are essentially the same things that Rick Astley won’t do.
Meatloaf’s list of “that” that he won’t do, according to the song: “Lie to you”, “Forget the way you feel right now”, “forgive myself if we don’t go all the way tonight”, “stop dreaming of you every night of my life”, “forget everything”, “see that it’s time to move on”.
Rick Astley’s list of the things he’s “never gonna do” : “Give you up”, “Let you down”, “Run around and desert you”, “make you cry”, “say goodbye”, “tell a lie, and hurt you”.
The pie chart for Rick Astley is here: http://fyitga.com/stuff/ImportantGraph.jpg
I love both charts. They are very important.
Meat Loaf? Don’t you mean Eddie?
Ummm…I am Deaf girl who LOVE MeatLoaf bse he one only only music people I full understand.
Okay, I not understand full graph over he do anything for love, but not do “that”, but bse I have hearing friend interpret song for me….honestly, i can for think many thng maybe Meatloaf not want do for love….
Think about it!!!!
So sorry….dirty mind have!!!
One thing I want say….people say here, “looi at other song titles he have and judge from this”…so I think over song “Paradise by dashboard lights”…He talk about how girl ask him will he love her forever, make her jis wife etc…he say “Let me sleep on it”….soooooo…does this to mean that this something he not want do for love???
photoshopped
If you don’t “get it,” then go back to watching Pokemon. Leave the grownups alone.
haha This is great! I love Meat Loaf, though I’m a little weirded out by the recent commercial he’s done. Still, very funny chart up there. No “that” in the equation at all!
