Inbox of Immaturity: The Response

Just about one month ago, the IOI featured this instant classic in local advertising. Seems I wasn't the only one feeling it. Feast your eyes on "The Response". Reminds me Sporty Thievz's rebuttal to TLC's No Scrubs (No Pigeons)—and once again, the original proves unanswerable.


Speaking of music, this must be the week of sounds for sorry ears:
1. Tara Reid karaoke
2. Nirvana cover band
3. Condoleeza cover rapper
4. MiaaRose is Sayin' It Right, but I can't take her seriously with those shades.
5. Even Britney's shave music video

Don't sleep on Montgomery Flea Market...dude has offered up his content to the public for remixing and sharing with a Greenscreen accapella.

Like Steven Colbert and other big name marketers like Burger King, he's harnessing the input and passions of users to spread his message far and wide. Extending the experience long past the traditional media buy.
