Watched the video again. Still cannot see the ā€œcreepinessā€ or whatever. Itā€™s however a bit bland, kind of like life in the financial sector.

This guy doesnā€™t appear to have any facial expressions to read anyway. And, I agree, this just smacks of predator.

Think for the firm, not yourself. Join the hive.

I usually find myself singing the chorus to this:

Creepy? Hell, yes. I hadnā€™t read the intro carefully enough, and was expecting a take-off. But no take-off could top that. Brrrrh!

ā€œSee the people down there? Theyā€™re little people. You can piss on them from here. Go on, piss on them. You do this for a job, but you can make it a lifestyle. Go on, pump that ego! Get to that next level! Become the apex predator! Then you can get an apartment so high you donā€™t even have to see the dirty little thingsā€¦ā€

Me? Iā€™m off to start a new life on the off-world colonies, me.

Aaaaand the video is apparently taken down now.
edit: I managed to get a copy. Apparently the thing is still somewhat up when you have the right session ID for your youtube-dl script. It is some 6.5 megabyte file, will give for a private request.

I donā€™t know that anyone would argue that the TC are leading the pack in transit, but the options available are nothing to be ashamed of (and improving rapidly, as light rail expands). This station hosts some eight lines, and (IIRC) there are several other routes in that specific area of MPLS.

As for that ad, oh geez. Given the demo the characters are supposed to represent, it would have been more accurate to have them woot-ing it up while invading Saint Paul on a goddamn pedal-pub.

Thereā€™s a copy of the original here: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newsvideo/weirdnewsvideo/11324969/Watch-Strange-advert-for-luxury-London-flats.html

But how do I get access to the Vimeo HD version, anyone downloaded?

53

Why not put it on YouTube?

54

Already at the Telegraph link, and the file I got is not any better. No HD for me.

Evolution of a slogan:

  1. Think Different.

  2. Think Differenter.

  3. Think Differentest.

Just Donā€™t Think Diffident.

SWM 34 y.o., vain, selfish, basically soulless, has burnt last remaining shreds of humanity in the flames of overweening ambition, seeks medium-term relationship with SWF 29 y.o. or younger, to assume the role of high-end escort girl whilst effectively pretending our liaison is not monetarily binding. Must have experience discreetly handling drunken rages. Interior decorating skills will be advantageous. Am flexible in personal grooming but ludicrous mustache is nonnegotiable.
