From The Smoking Gun:
So what kind of guy parades around in the middle of the day with red and black paint on his face a la Darth Maul? The kind who waves a fake gun around outside a school and then escapes on his waiting skateboard.
Ben & Jerry's, no longer owned or operated by either Ben or Jerry, finally catches on to the fact that not all of their customers think a "Black & Tan" ice cream will go down smoothly.
Ben & Jerry's, the socially aware ice-cream maker, has apologised to Irish consumers for launching a new flavour evoking the worst days of British military oppression.
Black and Tans, irate customers explained, was the term for an irregular force of British ex-servicemen recruited during the Irish war of independence and renowned for their brutality, including the 1920 massacre of 12 people at a Dublin football match.
Some things are still hard to swallow after seventy-six years.
You’ve read the books, you’ve seen the movie, 
you’ve heard the stories. You’re probably still hoping, somewhere in your heart of hearts, that Susan is saving herself for you.
But you have no fucking idea about the Narnia Rap Battle.
Behold:
See, once upon a time about three months ago
SNL started something. SNL! Yeah, I know!
But this thing, it went viral; all the kids were emailing.
It was outta control, yeah this thing was just wailing!
NBC drones found out, shut it down like a flash.
Way too late: got on YouTube, we all started to thrash.
There was LA, and Muncie, two young dudes from Chi-town.
Ain’t no point, NBC, in this “Hey, shut ’em down!”
Now Cambridge steps up; Oxford isn’t around.
C.S. Lewis, poor dead guy, spinning down in the ground.
It’s a Narnia rap, what we all want to play.
Don’t get all literal: allegory? No way.
Take a Narnia word, take a Narnia sound,
Give it harsh attitude, then you kick it around,
And that’s all it takes, just a matter of class
and if that’s not enough I’ll kick you in the ass.
Tea, motherfuckerfucker! Tea, motherfucker!

The Midwestern entry, Lazy Muncie. Can’t beat a dance at the Elk’s Lodge:
And finally, the UK Narnia Rap. I dunno what’s up with Oxford, but Cambridge stole a march on them, and on their home turf at that! How mortifying!
