Girl In Music Video Builds Mech Armor To Combat Bullies

This is a music video for a track from Cut Copy called 'Take Me Over'. Now I'm not sure if Cut Copy is a popular band or not, because I live under a rock. IN THE BACK OF A BEAR CAVE. Next to an animal carcass. Anyway, in the music video a little girl who's getting bullied builds a sweet set of cardboard mech armor and then goes after the girls that were bullying her. The lesson? Don't bully. And if any of you younger readers out there ARE bullies, heed my advice: when you grow up you will be a loser. "That wasn't advice, dummy." FINE -- IT WAS A FORTUNE THEN, YOU LITTLE SHIT!

Hit the jump for the music video.

Thanks to Ryan P, who once caught a bully giving a kid a wedgie and yelled real loud, "hey everybody -- this pervert is trying to steal this kid's underwear so he can go home and smell it!" And that was the end of that.

    You could have posted the above screenshot alone with the caption: "Russia watched Iron Man, thought it was real, and attempted to replicate."

  • It looked like there were mad artifacts every time the screen wiped... That mech suit was balls though. Balls.

    Bullies suck, mecha rules, song was alright too - but was getting a mad fleetwood mac vibe.

    Being old is shit

  • ...mmm.  Soooooooooo Eighties.  I live in a new golden age.

  • That was underwhelming...

  • Great video, I love love love Cut Copy and now I love them even more! I got to see them perform in Austin last year and they had a great live show.

    So, after the bullies finished with the girl, she began to experience adrenaline and testosterone induced hallucinations?  Somehow passing out in the middle of the road, then dreaming of how she would enact her revenge?  That's my guess.

  • Is that a NES Power Glove at 2:24?

    Awesome video, by the way.
