For those who want to hear the song: this is the tune of "Modern Major General" from the Pirates of Penzance. Original is pretty fitting too

That he's a very stable genius? Yep. Check his twitter.

No thanks. I believe it.

I am fully aware the world is laughing at him, I am part of that world. I just don't want to go and look at it all. It's depressing.

"Throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart." And no, he typed it all, which makes

the "like" even better.

I pray that that was intended to be a joke, but I don't think he's self-aware enough.

This one's great. For those that might miss it- that's Kevin Kline as the Pirate King

The film has quite the celebrity cast! Kevin Kline, Linda Ronstadt, Angela Landsbury, if I remember. Live productions still happen too!

I was all 'isnt it obvious?' And was going to mock your 'seems to'. But I realise I should appreciate your effort to educate. Upvote!
voixceleste
"Seems to" because I paired it from reading the images, and like a normal Imgurian didn't read the title until after commenting. Thanks!

We aren't all so cultured as you, baby. And I'm not being sarcastic. We really aren't. I had no clue.

I know it because of Mass Effect, so there's the cultured audience and the gamer one who might know it.

Okay I know it because of the Reboot cartoon. Alpha Numeric!

For those who enjoy video games, Mordin in Mass Effect parodies it grandly as the Scientist Salarian.
Rangrok
It's fitting that the song is meant to be ironic (both IRL and in Mass Effect), especially during Priority Tuchanka

Without Mordin I wouldn't have known the tune. Great character that Mordin

I didn't get to here him sing...either I just missed it or I did something wrong along the way :(

It might be in one of the DLCs. I'm not sure. I got a bundle with all the games and all the DLC so I'm not sure what was DLC and what wasn't
