VIDEO AD ON #THE WATCH
[ An embedded video ad originating from YouTube has been posted to The Watch -- and not for the first time. The latest ad for Rent-A-Swag, a recently established local business for hero costume rentals, features none other than the business's proprietor, Tom Haverford, cheesin' it up on camera to get you all to come rent sweet costumes so you can achieve the latest and greatest in superhero chic.
The ad features an awful lot of questionably DJed hip hop and flashing & blinking lights, generated courtesy of Tom's powers. ]
What's up, L.A.? Are you a new break-in to the sweet life of superheroics, or perhaps a long-time villain vindicator looking to put a new cape on an old codename? No matter your power level, you need to come down to... Rent-A-Swag!
[ For a "professionally produced" video, it looks suspiciously like something a government employee might have put together in Windows Movie Maker during office hours. That said, though, it does have a certain...pizzazz.
Tom gives the camera his trademarked bright-eyed grin -- double pistols and a mouthful of perfectly straight white teeth. Invisalign, motherfucker. Braces for people who have a minimum style requirement for their every day lives. ]
My name's Tom Haverford -- local government official, part-time club promoter, and hero couture expert. I started Rent-A-Swag with one goal in mind: to provide affordable, quality costume rentals to aspiring heroes -- without the cheap Halloween costume shop look. When you spend all day in a spandex suit, punching villains in the face over our great city, you want to get the job done looking good. At Rent-A-Swag, we understand the fashion needs of our beloved hero community go beyond cheap Lycra suits and flimsy capes that wouldn't flutter in a fan breeze. When you go Rent-A-Swag, you don't just get quality -- you get swag. So come on down and consult with our couturistas -- and this week only, if you put down a deposit on a rental and bring us THIS referral coupon, you'll get 20% off the first week. You can't get a better deal than that, L.A.! Tommy H out.
[ With a flash of dazzling light, the ad concludes. Attached to the post is a printable coupon for 20% off at Rent-A-Swag. Tom will be replying to any comments/responses to the video in text posts. ]
