If you don't know this, you're too young, or too new to The Interwebs, or you haven't been paying attention.

It's been years, but this still cracks my ass up hardcore.

GLUE PIECE OF HAM, BITCHES!!!






THE TIMELINE:

1984, Lebanon - Azar Habib records "Habbeetik" for the wedding of the daughter of one of his friends. It is sung in in Arabic.
1984+, Sweden - A UN office named Nyberg picks up a casette of Habib's music, takes it to Sweden and gives it to his son, Patrik.
1984++, Sweden - Patrik Nyberg and friends, Johan Gröndahl and Pet Bagge, grow up.
1990s, Sweden - An intoxicated Pet Bagge remarks that "Habbeetik" sounds like Habib is singing in Swedish. Certain words in the song sound like references to a popular Swedish drinking game involving a hat.
2000, Sweden - Patrik Nyberg and Johan Gröndahl make a complete phonetic translation of the song into Swedish. They circulate an email containing the lyrics and an MP3 of the song. Everyone loves it.
2000, Sweden - Veckans Hatt made the flash version of the song.
2000, The World - Everyone goes nuts.
2004, Sweden - The site come.to/hatten dies.
Here is what the original site had to say about the lyrics:
---------

Oooooh-ohohohoh
Winning kinky and fun

The hat is yours, the hat is yours
Hat-baby, hat-baby

The hat is living it up,

We find this is becoming gay
It was always fun
