I have *always* wanted to post this one:

 

[ElRenoRaven]

The Boston Mayor strikes again on the new page. I just have to ask. Which one of you is this?

 

[echoshifting]

Probably more than that. The fact that this "social media expert" changed his Twitter name and had his old name snatched up might be the funniest part of today's events, but it's hard to pick just one.

That was funny, but it's Geico by a country mile

 

[Parallax Scroll]

The Chicago Mayor strikes again on the new page.

goddamn rofl

 

[DrForester]

The Chicago Mayor strikes again on the new page.

Bah, beaten to my own joke...

 

[Kaizer]

Ok this is now a meme:

Amazing, lmao.

 

[Gianni Merryman]

It's all fun and games until someone jumps out the tenth floor window.

I seriously hope nothing really bad is going to happen, and I am convinced nobody here would like Christopher or anybody else to get harmed because of this trivial issue.

OK, we all have had a lot of fun laughing at Cristopher's goofiness and inadequacy, and he sort of deserved it, maybe he was not fitting for that position, but for sure he may find another job and still have a merry life.

Cristopher, if you're reading this, no use crying over spilt milk, now just get over it, we all have a bad day every now and since, and you're not the only one losing your job...

Damn didn't get my edit in fast enough. lol

I think the best part is that the new handle had another spelling error, while the correct spelling was still available.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Oh...oh you. WHY?!

Why knot?

 

[DrForester]

Which one of you is this?

I did the one on the original amazon page. Looks like I was beaten to the new page.

 

[joeyjoejoeshabadoo]

This is a knee.

I think it's an elbow. It also looks like he is on a school bus.

 

[stufte]

That's a fake.

real is oceanstratagy

ah, yep. Didn't catch that subtle change....

Christopher?

Is this autocorrect at work, or some kind of metajoke about him referring to Dave as Dan?

 

[mik83kuu]

Only thing sour in this is the fact that some people are emailing and calling him on the phone. The rest he deserves and it's fucking entertaining :-D

 

[Gianni Merryman]

Christopher?

My bad, his name is allegedly Paul Cristophoro or Cristoforo and not Christopher(not Dave by the way).

Jokes aside I guess that bloke has had a very bad day and I feel a little sorry for him, I don't know how would I feel if I had my career ruined overnight, becoming a laughing stock on the Internet on top of that.

This should go in the OP a nice but not perfect summery.

Not bad. This one is a little more behind the times, but apparently the person behind it actually spoke with Paul.

 

[lastendconductor]

This is embarrassing for all parties involved.

 

[Dance Inferno]

You know it occurs to me, if anyone has any grievances with any online gaming-related website, now would be the time to email them and try to get a resolution. I doubt any gaming website would so much as dare be rude to a customer right now.

 

[clockpunk]

The guy on the left is weird looking too.

This comment, sir, had me laughing out loud indeed!

Well this is like the perfect storm of things coming together.
I think we will not see this again on this scale for some time.

 

[drsoup]

this guy twitter is going nuts hahaha

 

[GhaleonEB]

This event, and thread, has been like Christmas happening all over again. So delicious.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

This is the greatest Amazon review ever.

Got controller in time for Christmas thanks to mob connections. Unfortunately, while the controller is amazingly well designed and responsive, upon use it summons Huatoxliptl, Lord of Despair, who immediately cast a spell on me which removed my hair, and is even now slowly turning me into a crow-type creature. Unfortunately, the controller is not well designed for use by crows, and so I am now regretting my decision to purchase it. Don't make the same mistake I did. Mankind is not ready for this level of responsiveness yet.

It was the newest 1 star review.

 

[Shamrock7r]

this guy twitter is going nuts hahaha

whats the new twitter handle?

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

Damn, this blew up. It's always great to see an internet bully get exposed. All the detective work is delicious.

 

[wondermega]

seriously what is wrong with these PR people? Did they all go to the same screwed up school or something?

 

[Solidav]

Ok this is now a meme:

This is amazing.

 

[Jamie OD]

OMFG. And a meme is born. I finally saw my first meme being born. I'm now a man. sniff sniff

Same here. It feels wonderful.

 

[mik83kuu]

seriously what is wrong with these PR people? Did they all go to the same screwed up school or something?

My guess it's either humor or an attempt to get hits from all the people searching for "wwebsite".

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

This is the greatest Amazon review ever.

A fucking Cow _0-_0-_0-_0-_0-_0-_0-_0-_0-_0-_0-

 

[GuardianE]

Geico. Why you so awesome.

 

[GotEmRunnin]

Officially home from work and this is the first time a internet implosion lasted a full 9 hour day. Including the hour I spent on lunch reading this guy's twitter account.

-How do you know you've hit rock bottom?

-When Geico uses one of the meme's created from your very own Wwebsite backlash.

 

[Dance Inferno]

This is the greatest Amazon review ever.

I'm sorry, but no it is not.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Ok this is now a meme:

dkjf.hgksldjfhglkdsjfkjdh I CANT TAKE IT LOLOOL

 

[Starphoenix]

This has got to be one of the craziest stories I have heard in a long time.

 

[DrForester]

I'm sorry, but no it is not.

neither are those

 

[spirity]

neither are those

Why not check out this.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

The two threads were combined into the gaming side right?

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Why not check out this.

LOLOLOLOL:

Worked fine with my right hand, but when I came to use my left hand my writing came out looking like the work of a complete imbecile. I can only assume Bic have created a
right-handed only pen, and would caution left-handers to "try before you buy".

bwhahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahaha

The two threads were combined into the gaming side right?

3 threads at one point and yes lucky for the mods they have combined them early.

 

[Niks]

Man, this thread has been the best late Christmas present ever.

 

[Dunlop]

This should go in the OP a nice but not perfect summery.

http://aggregame.com/news/2011/12/27/paul-christoforo-ocean-marketing-the-short-version/

thank you!

 

[IntelliHeath]

Geico is THE BOSS!

So Awesome!

 

[Loxley]

Ok this is now a meme:

Oh god :lol, I never pegged car insurance companies for being the types to pick up on internet memes, but that's pretty awesome.

 

[legacyzero]

Holy shit this is epic. That guy is a fucking TOOLBAG.

 

[Dunlop]

Shit, that reminds me it's been 6 weeks and Sony still hasn't refunded me the $6 for a movie that did not work

How many PS3's should I ask for?

 

[br0ken_shad0w]

Finally caught up to this thread. I don't think the original company should be free from criticism since it was the shipping delays that started this whole entire mess. (especially if that Brandon Leidel email is to be believed)

And I just realized that JD_2020 = Josh Olin. (damn mixed those two up)

It's not Robert Bowling, it's Josh Olin.
