Weird Al Yankovic’s latest video is a parody of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines.” Weird Al’s “Word Crimes” uses slick editing to call attention to some of the worst grammatical errors on the web, in print and social media.

Yankovic is hyping his new album “Mandatory Fun” by releasing 8 new videos over 8 days.

On Monday he channeled Pharrell with “Tacky,”a parody of Oscar-nominated “Happy.” Weird Al enlisted famous faces Eric Stonestreet, Kristen Schaal and Jack Black to call out hipsters, twerkers, and people who wear socks with sandals.
