Tay Zonday, the Chocolate Rainman, sparked a few million laughs with his deep throated display of music gone wrong. Now one viewer has decided he'd had enough of terrible Tay and all the other goofballs who've figured out how to film themselves being, well, themselves. It's parody paradise!
"Instant Fame," a short from Eric Schwartz aka Smooth-E, flips the switch on a myriad of idiots who've become popular by gettin' giggles from their idiotic self videos.

Chocoholics rejoice! Internet phenom Tay Zonday is showering fans with "Chocolate Rain" on the road. Lick it up!
The YouTube clip, which has been watched more than 4 million times and parodied by everyone from John Mayer to Darth Vader, has catapulted the James Earl Jones-voiced grad student to Internet -- and now real-life -- fame.
This fall, Zonday will take to the road with pop partier Girl Talk and electro-weirdo Dan Deacon, reports The Daily Swarm. Right now, Zonday's zigned up for the duo's Minneapolis tour stop, but could be added to other dates. It's a chocolate explosion!
