THREAD HIJACK!

Basically, what the thread title says. I suggest reading through the thread to get a feel for what we're up to.

This post was in the DudeBro thread and I thought it definitely deserves its own thread:

Google has a new ad service that lets you run national TV ads

http://slatev.com/video/how-i-ran-ad-fox-news/

IMHO, we should raise a couple thousand bucks and run the Dudebro commerical folks are making on national TV a few times.

Watched the Slate video and now I'm floored with how easy google has made it for you plebes to spread your idiocy to the masses. Glenn Beck is like a nice warm apple pie compared to the rantings of some of you nut jobs.

No wonder evil corporations are trying to sue Google. It's like the perfect organization.

Wow. That's amazing.

Does that mean that we can run political propaganda on TV cheaply? That sounds fun.

Edit: When it comes to affordability, I don't know how well this is going to work when more people catch on, though.

Actually, Google sent me a $100 adwords credit, could probably use that towards a TV ad for shits and giggles.

Seriously, let's do this :D

Doesn't have to be elaborate, but let's do something satirical. And I can narrate the ad.

I say you make a contest thread were the best NeoGAF commercial gets aired!

This sounds great except for the fact that the coolest/funniest commercials the average gaffer makes will probably not meet the standards of any station... not even Fox News.

I know I'm unemployed right now. But if Evillore start a Pay Pal account with a promise to make a NeoGAF ad on television, I'd donate a couple of dollars. DO IT GAF!!!

We need a celebrity to appear for 2 seconds just to say 'Believe' at the end of the ad. Micheal Cera preferably.

There was a guy who was in commercials on here. Lots of gaffers are good designers. I bet we could make an awesome commercial, I vote we put in dinosaurs and volcanoes!

No, EviLore should appear right at the end of the commercial, smile a shiteating grin and say "Believe", then wink his eye and walk away.

Or, make it like the old PS3 commercials. :lol

Do you have a good voice? If you do this, you do it right brother. I say we just make a 15 second long mememachine with a bigass NEOGAF! at the end, then have Pedobear pop his head out of the O.

Maybe a take on Apple's "There's an app for that" e.g. "Need relationship advice on the girl you've been stalking for the past four years, there's a thread for that.". Maybe a little past it's time for comic value though.

How about a play on the NeoGaf>Internet>NeoGaf gag?

It's no 4chan. Although I don't have any suggestions for a good commercial for a forum.
