I don’t know much about this show, and haven’t watched it, but I saw a row of signs with people kissing on them with the text “OMFG” on them. For as corny as it is, it’s kind of amazing that that’s a ‘low brow’ enough bit of text to be able to finally put on an advertisement.
ROFLcon was amazing. It was so completely and utterly surreal. I have lots of notes and stuff to share, so I’ll make the obligatory “When I get around to it” post now.
I am back, decompressing, and re-adjusting to reality. Surprisingly, (not surprisingly?) looking at stuff at work through different eyes as well.
So you are probably following my internetting with my new friend, fake pretend marketing internet person. » Update: Grand Theft Auto IV Viral Bloggery - ScatteredGenius.com
I challenged him specifically, saying:
Well, mister pretend internet marketing liar man, I don’t believe you! You say you are real, then I challenge you to update your blog in such a way that there’s no posts about GTA on the front page. You say you’re not a marketing company or hired to blog, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t a clever employee or spouse or whatever of someone at Rockstar or any of their related companies. WHAT SAY YOU, INTERNET STRANGER!?
So it looks like, as a result, he’s added a comment to his post:
So this guy has challenged me to update my site in such a way that there are no Grand Theft Auto posts on the front page… As the game is only 1 week away now, and I’m surely going to write about the game experience I doubt that will happen. Sorry, can’t take you up on that challenge!
I WIN! YOU ARE A FAKE INTERNET PERSON! I SEE YOUR PRETEND! YOU HAVE PRETENSE!
It’s cool, I got nothing but respect for you. If I could get paid to pretend on the internet, I would. I suppose I sort of do? Who knows. Either way I will probably buy your game in some form or another and indirectly pay you for doing what you’re doing in some form or another, so cheers! Everyone who reads my blog knows exactly when the game is coming out and how much fun the multiplayer is, as well as being entertained by our internet war. We’ve accomplished good goals. I feel that we’ve made a breakthrough here. Cheers!
ATTENTION: INTERNET.
I WILL BE IN BOSTON NEXT WEEKEND, FROM FRIDAY APRIL 25th, TO SUNDAY APRIL 27th, attending ROFLcon.
I will probably be pretty busy-up with ROFLcon stuff but I’m not sure what the plan is for any evening events. As of now, there is no evening events planned, other then a Pilgrimage to my Holy Land and Church, the Nan Ling. (The Nan Ling is my favorite/horrible ghetto chinese food restaraunt in all of creation, and I am a missionary to it’s amazing deliciousness. Check out the rave reviews of this place here.)
