An email regarding a "viral" video that might make a good competition or news item
Wow! We're so EDGY and UNDERGROUND and ASPIRATIONAL we have been selected by a PR/marketing company to help whore-out its latest attempt at making an advert look like something other than an advert.
Look for the clever use of the phrase 'go live' in paragraph three. It's like we've been emailed by a real live urban teenager.
Sounds great! Thanks for giving us the chance to get in on the ground floor of this excellent piece of 'viral marketing'.
WARNING:
The advert is a bit like porn.

I've been reading your blog and thought you might be interested in checking out a viral for an online art gallery called Hang-Up Pictures? I thought it might make a good competition or news item for your readers. If you like it, we are also giving bloggers a 12.5% discount on any pics you might want if you agree host the viral....watch it here:

Entitled 'Surveillance', it was produced by Watermill-London and is designed to look as if it is 'found footage'.
We are also running a competition around the viral which is about to 'go live' at http://www.hanguppictures.com
If you can name the three pictures that are hanging (and leaning) in Agent Provocateur model Jennifer Dawson's apartment, including the famous artists who created them, we'll enter you into a draw to win a signed limited edition of 20 Bast prints with first prize winning an additional £500. One runner-up will also receive a signed copy of Dolk Greande's Lovers handmade poster including an further £200 to spend as they so desire!
Sounds great! Thanks for giving us the chance to get in on the ground floor of this excellent piece of 'viral marketing'.

Jesus!
I feel dirty and sullied now. and considering this is Idiot Toys, that's a fair achievement. Well done marketing wankers, you seem to have done the impossible.
Still, boobies, eh? What do we need to buy in order to see more?
Oh no, hang on, boobies are free to view on the internet anyway, aren't they? Why would I want to buy anything? Silly marketing people.
wv: jughings - hinges for jugs.
I suspect that the have paid no artists (the creators, not the imitators) for any of their plunder.
This is reverse-viral-marketing - what are you going to buy with that generous discount?
rompa!
I 'love' marketing people. They are so 'cool', I 'wish' that I was as 'cool' as them.
Hang on, this just in; they are twats. Not 'twats', just regular twats.
There's only one virus this website will be passing on to its readers and it's not the kind that makes you buy "lifestyle" "art".
Wut?
her names egg monroe shes a cat rapist
I was about to dismiss this video without watching right up to the last line of the post. Damn Idiot, you're doing their job for them!
I can't believe they put go live in inverted commas like that. It's as though they don't believe it themselves. Don't they even know what it means?
Badben's comment about twats made my Thursday.
