That Should Do the Trick: Obamacare's Three Hour Internet Telethon to "Get Covered" Features Contortionist, Guy Whose Expertise is "Drunk Cooking," and of Course... Richard Simmons
— Ace

Well! Why didn't you say so the first time? Now I'm totally stoked about paying far too much for skinny-network high-deductible overpriced health care!!!!

get-covered-7.jpg
"Setting this positive and structural foundation for your life,"
whatever that could possibly mean

You can, but probably should not, see what this might have looked like by cueing the below video to around the twenty minute mark (which comes early in the video -- bear in mind, it's three hours of this sort of thing).

OUT: Footie Pajama Guy

IN: Richard Simmons, Disco Contortionism, and cocaine-fueled gay nightmares

The downside of the Viral Mentality (and is there an upside...?) is that those who think in terms of "make it go viral" seem indifferent to whether you're "Going Viral" in a good way or a bad way.

Our celebrity-smitten, Instant FameWhore culture does not seem to distinguish any longer between becoming admirably famous or simply becoming famous.

I'm sure the left will tell us in a week that we're all homophobes for wondering precisely who out there looks to Richard Simmons as an aspirational model, and that they totally Double Secret Probation tricked us into talking about this, because that was their object all along -- "Get talkin'," you know.

And yet... and yet. Oscar Wilde famously said he'd rather be talked about badly than not talked about at all, but this is a comparison between two inferior choices, isn't it? Obviously one would like to be talked about in a positive way over either of those two possibilities.

But not to those possessed of the Viral Mentality. The Kardashian Imperative says the only important thing is that you are talked about, period. Famous, infamous, lauded, notorious... who cares? The only important thing is that people know your picture.

Correction: There are not three hours of this.

There are more than six hours. 6:18, in fact.

But he is not serious about anything except handing out walking around money.

Famous, infamous, lauded, notorious... who cares? The only important thing is that people know your picture. You know for celebrities that does have some merit. It the "Howard stern viewership" that they mentioned in the movie private parts. Something like people that like stern listen to him for 1 hour and the main reason "I want to hear what he does next." People that hate stern listen to him for 2 hours and the main reason "I want to hear what he does next." So for that sort it makes sense. But for obamacare? Just talking about it isn't enough because it is a product. Consider a move. If it's absolute shit and everyone says don't see it, is the studio going to be happy that everyone is talking about their movie? Or what about Taco Bell? Were they happy when they had to deal with those claims that they were using horse meat? So what good is "everybody is talking about obamacare!" If nobody is signing up for the piece of shit?

237 So Ace, did you properly research this post by watching the entire 6 hours and 18 minutes? "Our celebrity-smitten, Instant FameWhore culture does not seem to distinguish any longer between becoming admirably famous or simply becoming famous." The public has joined the celebrity wannabe circuit. "All publicity is good publicity" is an old celebrity meme, and the public wants to be celebritized now. I use the meme very succesfully in my band pormotion. I don't put up pictures of the band playing, I put up pics of the crowd partying down, dancing, photobombing, hugging, reach-arounding, etc. They don't want to see me on facebutt, they want to see themselves.

328 Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at January 17, 2014 01:32 PM (kFCo1) That's because it's only peripherally about winning elections. To the vast majority of GOP politicians- and virtually every *employee* of the RNC, it's about a payday (and I don't mean the candy bar or the old board game). As long as they get paid, they don't care- they're part of the Protected Class anyway. If they can win elections, that's great- it's better to be the Noble House in power than it is to be the Noble House out of power. But it's better to be the Noble House out of power than it is to be neither.

I agree.  He has a heart of gold and has never , ever pushed  a gay agenda on anyone.   He refuses to  discuss his sexuality or advocated the alternative life.      That's all I've ever asked.

Because when you walk into GameStop someone who knows games and gaming will talk to you and help you pick out the right product. The last time I walked into Best Buy (which was years ago at this point) I knew more about what I wanted to buy than the employee- and it wasn't exactly an area (tablets) with which I was particularly familiar.

To the vast majority of GOP politicians- and virtually every *employee* of the RNC, it's about a payday (and I don't mean the candy bar or the old board game). As long as they get paid, they don't care- they're part of the Protected Class anyway. If they can win elections, that's great- it's better to be the Noble House in power than it is to be the Noble House out of power. But it's better to be the Noble House out of power than it is to be neither.

No, it's just right now gays are a protected untouchable group. If they didn't have gays they would put up minorities. "Reasoning" goes if you make fun of this video, well then you must be homophobic. They have essentially turned them into human shields, which is pretty damn offensive.

486 For the accusatory stares you get from security when you're leaving BB.


The Loss Prevention fuckers stationed at the doors.


True story:   I once walked into a BB to pick something up and the yellow shirted LP guy who usually tells me hello while profiling me for potential shoplifter disposition didn't look up from his station at all.  I was kind of half expecting him to recover and notice me and give me a belated 'hello sir!" but he just kept staring at the screen on his desk.

If you don't know, the LP console is actually a very large set of HD monitors hooked up to security cameras around the store.  Every angle is covered, there are no dead zones anywhere. 

The LP guy who never bothered to give me a hello was staring at his screen, transfixed to the cleavage of a very well endowed woman who was wearing a top with a plunging neckline.  Those cameras have a very powerful zoom lens and he was practically inside her top. 

He finally notices me staring at him staring at the screen and he hurriedly pulls the camera back out of her top and gives me my "hello!"


Assclowns.

505 I'm can't quite decide if this is intentional or not, but this crew of idiots just keep shooting themselves in the foot. First, they allow the healthiest cohort to share premiums with their parents (up to age 26). Then they give people who lost their coverage, the people most likely to sign up and pay premiums and yet make fewer claims, the opportunity to get back on their previous plans. Now they make a viral video to encourage gay men and obese women to sign up; two cohorts more likely to make claims (and massive on-going claims) against their insurance then young, healthy, heterosexual men.

513 I would not be surprised if the BBC does not issue a DMCA take down notice to protect their IP for the 'Black Adder' show. Nothing was more inane, insane and assine than BA, well till this came along......
