One of the worst attempts at viral marketing I've ever seen. It is so awful, you don't even want to share it and wish you'd never seen it.

- jeebusroxors 16y agoBut it made it to geek.com and HN. Hell, I didn't even watch the advert but that's the the article I know what it's for. Isn't that the point of viral marketing?
- devmonk 16y agoWell, some say that any publicity is good publicity. But if it comes off as foolish, and you don't even get the point of it, and most who share it are only sharing it because they don't get it, then in the end you've just contributed to people wasting time. They tried to promote their product or service, but all I remember is "stupid" and "pizza". It did however make me associate "Google" with "stupid" and "repetitive".
- philwelch 16y agoAfter watching it, the word "pizza" has turned into a strange, meaningless word-sound.
