Hilarious Pop Culture Collision: Breaking Bad and Miley Cyrus

Somebody named Sam Barnett on YouTube just made an inspired pop culture mashup of two of the biggest, frivolous things going on out there now.

to enjoy Miley Cyrus' performance  

As most of us know, "Breaking Bad" is probably the most talked about television series out there now.

On Sunday's episode of "Breaking Bad" there was an incredibly pivotal scene that I won't describe much in case you haven't seen it yet and want to.

Anyway, two characters from "Breaking Bad," Hank and Marie, were watching something shocking and horrifying. That's one part of the mashup.

Another shocking and horrifying thing going on Sunday was the Great Miley Cyrus Crisis of 2013, in which, as we all know, involved her, um, saucy performance at the Video Music Awards.

So, on YouTube, somebody decided to mash up the two most talked about pop culture moments of the week. It's pretty hysterical. Watch:

"Breaking Bad" Fans in Connecticut Fail To Give 911 Operators A Break

I can certainly understand the rage of somebody who is a HUGE fan of a television show, only to have the cable service fail just befor the program starts.

Yeah, it's a a great show, but calling 911 when the cable
fritzes out just before the show begins?  

Like many people, some residents of Connecticut were salivating over a new episode of "Breaking Bad" Sunday night when the cable went out.

Some did the only logical stupidest possible thing. They called 911 to help. As most of us know and Fairfield Police Department  had to remind people, 911 is for life threatening emergencies.

Like the kind of murder and mayhem and drugs you might find depicted on "Breaking Bad." Not the frustration of being able watch the (fictional!!) mayhem on your big screen TV because the cable is out.

Fairfield Police actually had to issue this Facebook post:

"NOTICE: We are receiving numerous 911 calls regarding the Cablevision outage. This is neither an emergency or a police related concern. Please direct your inquiries to Cablevision.
911 should only be called for Life Threatening Emergencies ONLY.
Incidents that are not of an emergency nature may be reported to the Fairfield Police Department at 203-254-4800.
Misuse of the 911 system may result in an arrest.

Besides, what were the 911 responders, police, and fire and rescue and whatnot supposed to do about the cable television problem?  I don't think they have a magic wand that switches the cable back on when it hiccups. 

And really, you might feel like you're having a heart attack for missing "Breaking Bad" but you're not. Trust me. Even though I'm not a doctor.

I supposed if you were that mad about the cable dying before the show started you could go hit somebody who works at the cable company. Then it would become a matter for 911 after all, wouldn't it?
