The guy at the end LASSO'ED THE LLAMA FROM THE BACK OF A PICKUP TRUCK.

A little self loathing/doubt is normal. But if you find you can't get out of the cycle of self loathing/doubt, it could be something bigger. Depression and/or anxiety are very tough to handle with help, and almost impossible to handle by yourself. If you can't stop the feelings of self loathing/doubt, do yourself a…

The dog is like, "Where are my treats, human, I did it!!!!"

I want to be as happy as that dog is. He is so psyched to have done a good job!

I've been thinking the same thing about a lot of the classic hip-hop music from the 90s in general. When it was actually coming out, I was an alternative-rock, grunge or die girl and hated this song and others like it.

I totally agree with you! "Work It" always stuck out to me as a pretty progressive song..."Ain't no shame, ladies do your thang. Just make sure you ahead of the game" is a great lyric and sounds like sex-positive, and maybe pro-sex work feminism, which makes me love Missy Elliott all the more.

How is her style still fucking rocking 10-15 years later? Every other video from that time has laughable fashion. I'm watching these thinking, "Damn she looks good!"

Also Janelle Monáe. She's great and very much outside the norm.

Watching Missy both here and in the SB halftime show I'm struck at how far female hiphop has fallen. For whatever talent people see in Iggy Azalea, she cannot hold a flame to Missy. I miss Missy.

It truly bums me out that she isn't more out here with us. I NEED Missy to confront the world. The world NEEDS MISSY.

missy has always made me feel beautiful with her lyrics- she's a black woman and i am a white woman, but something about the way she raps about herself, other people, other men, other women- just something about it so SO positive and powerful.

No kidding. I remember when this stuff first came out. I thought then, and still think now, that there is nobody doing what she does. So damned innovative. I could not possibly love her more.

I always loved Missy, but when I was younger I don't think I fully appreciated the gestures her videos were making combined with the music and within their cultural context. In addition to everything else, it's interesting to look at what videos were becoming in the late nineties and early '00's when considering that…

i know we all talked about why she hasn't performed recently in the comments after the super bowl, and i get it, but i really hope that was a testing-the-waters kind of gig and not a isn't-this-fun-and-retro kind of deal because i am sitting in my empty office fully breaking it down in my chair to these songs while…

[It's] sung by a woman who is not only outside the cultural beauty standard, but equal parts masculine and feminine. I can't name another artist who does that. Not to mention her serious, serious talent.

Yeah I think it was in my Facebook feed where someone was complaining about Missy Elliot being in the SB halftime show, specifically that she "hasn't done anything new for a decade" and someone else said "well probably because she's been dropping the proverbial mike for a decade and nobody can get close enough to pick…

That is the TRUTH...I could watch her videos all day/night. Chills...

Yeah I have to say Missy Elliot is one of the very few artists I really connect with and fully enjoy and admire when I'm listening. She's such a creative force. I was so happy to see her at the Super Bowl.

Missy and Timba were on some truly next level shit (Or the game hasn't progressed that much) given all these songs are still absolute killers over a decade later.

I think they already like sex
