Remy: Spiderwebs (No Doubt IRS Parody)
Forget long hold times—the IRS isn’t answering at all.
HD DownloadAfter receiving an erroneous tax notice, Remy is convinced that the IRS is ghosting him.
Parody of No Doubt's "Spiderwebs" written and performed by Remy; edited by Austin Bragg; camera by Meredith Bragg
LYRICS:
You're trying to connect
Cuz we sent something incorrect
But the mistake you made is clear:
You're assuming that we're here
Please be patient
I'm on a sort-of vacation
"Remote working" today
Sorry I'm not home right now
I'm walking into Spider Webb's
Don't leave a message
We don't call you back
What if I can't reach you?
You might go to jail if you don't do that
Like Amber Heard on a duvet
You're pushing #2 all day
Menus more tangled and twisty
Than Herschel Walker's family tree
You've got issues
Well maybe grab some tissues
Sweet, an automatic raise
Sorry I'm not home right now
I'm shooting out some spiderwebs
Don't leave a message
We don't call you back
But you better reach us
You might go to jail if you don't do that
And it's all our fault
And our budget's this tall
But no matter who calls
We don't answer phone calls

I get such a kick out of all the topical references Remy drags in, like Amber Heard on a duvet pushing #2 …. it would be interesting to go back over previous videos and see how closely you can guess their release dates from the references.
I actually have made $18k within a calendar month via working easy jobs from a laptop. As I had lost my last business, I was so upset and thank God I searched this simple job achieving this I’m ready to achieve thousand of dollars just from my home. All of you can certainly join this best job and could collect extra money on-line visiting this site.> https://oldprofits.blogspot.com/
I actually bet you actually have not. Actually.
Are you in dire need of a career change? Isn’t it frustrating to have to create budgets for everything in life? What if I told that up to $500 can be earned daily without stepping outside of your home, would you be interested? In fact,

LOL, right back atchya!
Amber Heard on a duvet pushing #2? After THAT, she went #1 all over me and gave me a Golden Shower! (Ugggh, coulda done w/o THAT!)
THEN she went #3 and made me a baby!!! Maybe soon she can catch me up to Genghis Khan, Elon Musk. and Hershel Walker!
Here is the latest hypocritical politician: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/06/18/herschel-walker-fathers-day-weekend-pass-social-conservatives-00040710 Social conservative crowd cheers Herschel Walker after revelations of undiscussed kids… The former Heisman winner got applause from the Faith & Freedom crowd, after a week of reports that he had more children than he’d publicly acknowledged.
My comments: I know the type! Big Man on Campus sports super-heroes need NOT follow the rules of the mere mortals! “Pro-family-values” square-jawed super-hero Republicans like Herschel Walker will be cheering the new abortion restrictions, ‘cause their lied-to harems full of fertile babes will now have a MUCH harder time of using abortion as “veto power” against lying scum-bucket men!!! Herschel Walker and ALL the other “Lying Lotharios” for the win!
So plucky squirrel was on celeb duvet? How was it?
All cool, except for the golden shower!
More lovelies from Republican politicians: https://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/politicians-learned-anything-since-clayton-williamss-campfire-rape-joke/ “Bad weather is like rape, he (Clayton Williams) said; “if it’s inevitable, just relax and enjoy it.” And “raped women can’t get pregnant”, they say! https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/02/idaho-lawmaker-still-thinks-rape-cant-result-pregnancy-and-its-2016/ “Nielson’s comments echoed those of former Missouri Rep. Todd Akin, who once memorably said on a television interview, ‘If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to shut that whole thing down.’”
Republican “facts” and “logic” summarized: Abortion-prohibiting laws will need NO exceptions for rape, because raped women don’t get pregnant! If raped women DO get preggers, it MUST mean that they ENJOYED it, so it wasn’t REALLY rape, then, was it?

THE + IRS = THEIRS
Excellent video! Remy is just perfectly self-typecasted to be an obnoxious bureaucrat! And the reference to the talking Mandalorian toy of The Child at 1:00 is hilarious! 🙂
I mailed in my return at the end of Feb. They have no record of it (meaning it is likely still in process). Called multiple lines, all with the same response: “due to extreme call volumes for your type of inquiry, we can’t answer. Please calI back later or the next business day.” I have a service office in my town; not allowed to go there without an appointment. No web portal for appointments, have to call; but when you do? “Due to extreme call volumes for your type of inquiry, we can’t answer. Please calI back later or the next business day.”
Your department can’t get the routine shit done. Don’t go scrambling about for more responsibilities, you fuckers.
Didn’t they hire an additional 40k employees last year?
I know they requested to hire the additional 40k, but what their actual hiring was…???
“I mailed in my return at the end of Feb.”
Well, there’s your mistake right there. IRS wants you to e-file.
Fuck them. If they offer paper as an option then they need to take it seriously enough to process it within the “app. six weeks” it’s supposed to take.
It’s not my responsibility to bend to their incompetence. It is theirs to get their shit together.
Don’t hold your breath.
IRS agents get AR-15s.
And you don’t! (That’s what the 2nd Amendment says, if’n ye examine the emanations, apparitions, and penumbras VERY carefully, with a law-school degree.)
Did you know that Manly Sullivan of Charleston challenged the income tax on 5th Amendment grounds in the early 1920s? The circuit court agreed that filing a return as a bootlegger is incrimination. But La Suprema Corte said self incrimination can be coerced just like conscription. Foreign stock exchanges crashed and kept falling when that May 1927 decision was bought and paid for.
This just happened to me yesterday with the TSP. I can’t make an account change on their website and I can’t get in to talk to a person on their phone line. And people want to hand over their healthcare to the government?
And people want to hand over their womb management to the government? “Here, allow me to help… And to be compassionate with YOUR womb!”
These days it seems Remy and Andrew Heaton are the only things keeping Reason relevant.
Oh? Has Remy gone Trumpanzee or something?
This had me at the geodesic spheres! I am soooo blogging to push this to foreign audiences. Is the original a possibly oblique and subtle reference to the Mao Dynasty invading Hong Kong?
Are you one of Hank’s socks? You have the same word salad algorithm that he uses. COME ON ELON! BUY TWITTER ALREADY SO THAT WE CAN GET RID OF BOTS LIKE THIS.
I really wish Remy would make a parody about the SCOTUS leaker. I think hew could do it true justice. I’m so bad at puns.
He would hew it to pieces!
He would hew it to pieces!
