This just in: the David After Dentist family is making bank.
I’m sure you’ve seen this video:
“David After Dentist” has 53,913,278 views as of today, and David’s dad spoke at SXSW this week, talking about what the family has been up to since the video went viral. Long story short: they’ve been making a shit ton of money. Six figures.
You know what makes women feel bad about themselves? Everything.
Two different studies, same results.
Have you ordered The Edge?
I saw an ad today for a 3 disc collection of CDs called “THE EDGE”, featuring all the music that is hardcore enough to warrant dark moody videos and heavy eyeliner, but not so heavy that it can’t also be used in Gossip Girl ads.
Here, watch the ad for it:
Ahh, the slick marketing of angst. Jump for the full track listing, and bask in the horribleness.
Date a Nerd! They’ll Build You Rocketships for your Jimmy Choos!
John DeVore recently wrote a great piece at The Frisky in response to one of the most casually insulting things I’ve ever read in Cosmopolitan, Seven Reasons to Date a Moodle.
In it, Cosmo tells women it’s good to date a guy you ordinarily would put in the nerdy friend category, because “Sure, he may secretly want to get it on with his super hot neighbor, but knowing that you’re the hottest girl he’s ever been with will probably keep him from cheating.” That’s right ladies, the best thing about “settling” for a nerd is all that relationship security. Unless, of course, the hot neighbor also read this article and decides she wants her very own loyal puppy dog of a nerd.
And now, two music videos from the 90s starring movie stars.
This morning I bring you Rush Rush by Paula Abdul (starring Keanu Reeves, clearly out of his acting league)
And Into the Great Wide Open by Tom Petty (starring Johnny Depp)
Break the Cycle
Jezebel brought to my attention today that Kotex has launched a new line of products called U by Kotex (get the message there, you buy Kotex?). While they’re probably just the same tampons and pads as always, just with edgier packaging, what is new and interesting is the ad campaign.
Kotex wants to challenge women to stop being so ashamed of their periods. Hooray? After the jump, check out the commercial.
