Iconic '80s rapper Biz Markie became an MTV staple thanks to "Just A Friend," and recently he has appeared on MTV2's "Hip Hop Squares." You already know the Clown Prince's hit, and you probably know he's a nasty beatboxer. But you probably didn't know these seven little nuggets about Marcel Theo Hall.

1. He is the reason all samples must be cleared with the work's original artist. After sampling a song on "Alone Again," he was taken to court by the original songwriter and the resultant case, Grand Upright Music, Ltd. v. Warner Bros. Records Inc., established that samples must be approved by the copyright holder.

6 Weird STDs That May Scare You Celibate

Herpes, HIV, the clap. You probably think you know all there is to know about STDs and how to avoid them. You don't. Tonight on "Guy Code" (11p/10c) the cast will delve into this scary but important topic. And many of the cast-members are comedians, so you know they're experts on STDs.

However, even many "experts" only know the mainstream STDs. So we're about to school you on the obscure STDs. The indie STDs who perform at shabby-chic bars with no names. Below are six STDs you've probably never heard of, so you should probably just assume you already have them.

1. Chancroid
Guy Code Nickname: The Chank
What the hell is it: A bacterial infection that leads to painful genital sores/ulcers. It's generally only found in developing countries...so be careful if you're sampling the local flavors on those business trips to emerging markets.
Do you have it: Probably not. According to the CDC, in 2010 only 24 cases were reported in the US. However, it may also be "substantially underdiagnosed." So yeah, you may very well have it. But it's curable with about a week of medication.

'Guy Code' Throwback: Talking To The Cops

Posted 8/14/12 11:30 am EST by in MTV2, The Show, Video

Tonight on "Guy Code" (11p/10c) the experts tackle the issue of the 5-0. The fuzz. Po-po. Policia! And it's our expert opinion that you can never have too much preparation for a run-in with the police, because whether you're being pulled over for a faulty brake light or pepper sprayed down by Occupy Wall Street, you won't survive on quick-thinking and instinct alone. In fact, those things will probably land you in jail. You do not want to land in jail. You want to courteously engage the policeman until he decides to go wrangle someone else and throw them behind bars.

Donnell Rawlings gave us our first Pro Tip last season about this very subject. So to help you prepare for the inevitable cop encounter, watch the above "Guy Code" throwback.

Jason 'Mayhem' Miller Arrested Naked In A Church

Posted 8/13/12 7:00 pm EST by in Celebs, MMA, News


Photo via Orange County Jail

Well, it looks like retirement doesn't fit Jason "Mayhem" Miller very well. Or he just had a really rough night. The former MMA fighter and "Bully Beatdown" host was arrested when cops found him naked in a California church. They suspect that after breaking into the church, he also sprayed a fire extinguisher. Luckily, nobody was hurt and there wasn't too much damage, and when cops got to him he was coherent. Our favorite part? When police asked him to identify himself, he answered, "Mayhem."

So what's going on with Mayhem? He lost his last fight and walked away from the sport he loved, and months later this happens. We hope he's alright, but he should probably find a new post-retirement hobby. Church stripping is only fun the first couple times.

Too Soon For Vinny And Melanie's Weekend Getaway?

Posted 8/13/12 6:00 pm EST by in Celebs, MTV2, Relationships, The Show

We previously brought you evidence that suggests Vinny from "Jersey Shore" went on a McDonald's date with his former "Guy Code" co-star Melanie Iglesias. And now, Melanie has posted another photo of the maybe celebrity couple. Here's why this one may be a big deal: Vinny was in the Poconos in Pennsylvania for an event on Saturday night at 10pm. This photo was tweeted that night at 12:33 am. Does that mean they had a lovers' getaway over the weekend? Quite a step up from a fast food rendezvous.

So what is the Guy Code for weekend getaways with a new lady friend? How soon is too soon for sequestering yourselves in the mountains alone? When you are one-on-one with a new girl, you're both bound to discover unflattering tendencies and details about the other, so it can make or break a relationship. If you're thinking about taking your first couples' trip, make sure you ask yourself these questions first.

1. Are the living/travel arrangements already paid for?

If the answer is yes (as it was for Vinny, presumably), then go on the trip. When you're traveling on business and the hotel room is paid for and all the meals are comped, you get to live the high life and impress your girl at the same time. Plus, it guarantees no arguments over money.

The Pros And Cons Of Dating Gamer Girls

Posted 8/13/12 4:15 pm EST by in Funny, Games, Relationships

This Tuesday night on "Guy Code," our experts investigate that unavoidable hobby that tends to galvanize you and your friends while infuriating all your girlfriends: video games. But we've come a long way from the days of pimply dudes huddled up in the basement with empty cans of Surge and pizza boxes strewn about. I mean, yes, that scene still thrives, but now the gaming world is far less insular, and is more of a snapshot of mainstream culture. And that means girls are gaming more than ever. This is a wonderful thing. A girl sees you talking to your friends over a headset while shooting up zombies, and she's less likely to think you're an asocial nerd. And it even means you could end up finding a girl who will play video games with you. But is that always a good thing? We've compiled the pros and cons of dating a gamer girl:

Kick Off Shark Week With Shy Shark

Posted 8/13/12 1:45 pm EST by in Funny, TV

The Olympics are over, but admit it, you were sick of all the Olympics memes anyway. And really it was all just a big distraction to hold us over until Shark Week got here. Well it's here. And that means it's time to binge on shark memes. Starting with Shy Shark. Shy Shark just wants to politely tear you apart and feast on your flesh.

Shy sharks make for great image macro fodder, no doubt. But for TV they aren't a real ratings grabber. So, since Discovery will most likely shy away from shy sharks, we're giving them their moment in the spotlight with some of our favorites below:

Insane Clown Posse Sues The FBI

Posted 8/13/12 12:45 pm EST by in Hip-hop, Music, News

Just last week, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope of Insane Clown Posse schooled us on the Juggalo Code. Despite all their horrorcore lyrics and menacing clown facepaint, the Juggalo Code is all about community and positive energy, a lifestyle where anyone is welcome to join (it's no surprise their annual festival is known as The Gathering). But the FBI recently and hilariously deemed the Juggalos a gang. While Faygo-chugging clowns seem like a gang you'd see in "The Warriors," nobody in real life sees these guys as a threat. A nuisance, perhaps, but not even in the same universe as actual gangs like MS-13.

So ICP told the Village Voice that they had to do "the American thing" and sue the FBI. It's fitting when you think about it: this movement has always been about doing what you want and not what "the Man" tells you you want, and now it's actually taking on the Man. Like, the biggest Man. Juggalos are widely misunderstood and mocked, but this move has gained them a lot of sympathizers. Essentially, by trying to defuse the Juggalo movement, the FBI has only ensured that it will grow.

Scientific Study Proves Women Also Stare At Boobs

Posted 8/13/12 11:45 am EST by in Funny, Ladies, News


Credit: Jason Merritt/Getty Images

And now we present science news that will get you out of the dog house: men don't stare at cleavage because they're horny dirtbags. Men stare at boobs because ALL HUMANS do. A new study in Science Daily says that men and women are equally likely to look at women's bodies as a collection of parts ready to be objectified. Essentially, when looking at a female, we all go into Terminator vision mode, honing in on specific parts of her body and assessing them.

And not just the hot ones! Even when a hefty gal lets her chest-beefers hang out, we guys know that we still can't stop ourselves from taking a peek. Well, women look at the ugly ones, too. This means that we're ALL looking at ALL the cleavage. Sure, men are probably doing it to look for potential mates, and women are probably doing it to compare to themselves, but still. We're all guilty here.

So the next time your girlfriend slaps you for checking out a woman right in front of her, you can call her out on the same violation. After all, did you ever wonder how she knew what you were checking out in the first place? Yeah, she knew what you were checking out because she was checking it out, too.

Today's Badass: Justin Theroux Proposes To Jennifer Aniston

Posted 8/13/12 10:45 am EST by in Celebs, News, Today's Badass

Finally. Now we can stop hearing that incessant chatter about "Will Jennifer Aniston ever find love?"  Actor Justin Theroux, who's been dating Aniston for just over a year, has stepped up to the plate and proposed.

Good for him. All her past loves and baggage, he's cut right through it. That s*** doesn't faze him. So she was married to Brad Pitt? She had a fling with John Mayer? Just make sure to use a rubber. Vince Vaughn? Would've been more intimidating if it happened before "Dodgeball."

When her marriage to Pitt ended, Aniston wasn't toxic, she was just looking both for a shoulder to cry on and a revenge lay. Hence, things like John Mayer happened. But Theroux is now realizing she got that streak out of her system. Just as she got her swagger back, Theroux swooped in. Well-played, Justin.
