The Mystery of Hollaback Girl

So, no one really gets this song. It's catchy but really stupid and meaningless.
That's just my opinion.

Here is someone else's (courtesy of William Cunion Homepage):

B-A-N-A-N-A-S on National Review Online

Yes, it's horribly right wing. I don't really have a comment on any of those sections of the story.
There was only one reason that I posted this. I had to stop reading after this line:

Here we have a song that is a silly mix of sexiness, bravado, and belligerence (culminating in the classic “B — A — N — A — N — A — S / This sh — is bananas.”) I ain’t no hollaback girl seems to mean something like, “I don’t just return insults with words. I step it up.” Aaron Burr to Alexander Hamilton: “I ain’t no hollaback boy. Pistols at dawn.”

That ... is priceless.
