Forget Lady Gaga: Why didn't MIT get OutKast?

Ooh, so she posed for a Polaroid to help shill for what's left of the company and MIT's giant collection of Polaroidiana. Whup.

Has she ever urged her listeners to shake it, shake it like a Polaroid picture?

Didn't think so.

It should have been "shake it as if it were a Polaroid picture".

Shake your shake
Shake shake
Shake your sh-shake
Shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake

--Lady Gage: Shake your Kitty

Come now, Adam. There's no classic lyric, no persistent meme, that she hasn't appropriated.

Oh my, that is so clever. I don't think anybody's ever said that before.

I may be wrong, but I thought Polaroid frowns on shaking as unnecessary. Perhaps they wouldn't want to be associated with an artist spreading such myths as he recommends shaking in the manner one would a photograph from a Polaroid brand instant camera.

That's another Myth of Polaroid: blowing on it to make it work faster. It only works when it is really cold outside (leave it to a bunch of MIT students with a big box of film to figure that one out!).

You can also "draw" on polaroid film while it is still developing.
