Melania Trump came under fire for allegedly plagiarizing a speech given by Michelle Obama in 2008. Melania’s speech was also apparently hacked by someone on staff who snuck in a rickroll. However, journalists and music buffs are still discovering more stolen bits that were slipped into her speech.

Good one! I look forward to more top ten riffs from NSR. You’re good at this!
Can you list ten reasons why I should do more of these?
10. Why the heck not?
9. Eventually we’ll get a Nirvana or an Alice in Chains reference, or probably both, maybe even at the same time.
8. There’s always a place for “totally out of left field.”
7. It will keep you from posting those sadistic songs by amateurs clips, or at least postpone it.
6. We’ll get a “top ten” with D.C. Comix some day. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. But some day.
5. Learn about obscure 80s and 90s bands.
4. We can never ask ourselves “What did I actually just see?” often enough.
3. You’ll do that number association thing that looks like you’re being systematic but you’re just making it up as you go along.
2. Who else can do retro and futuristic at the same time?
And the mostest, bestest top of the top ten . . .
1. Robots. You’ll get to robots sooner or later.
