Ocean Marketing

[Kyrillian]

Not sure who here reads Reddit on a regular basis but you all should check out the Ocean Marketing saga and the resulting memes that have been created because of it. You can google "Ocean Marketing" and find a bunch of articles to get you up to speed. Basic gist is:

1. Guy e-mails customer service about a launch date for a controller accessory.
2. Customer service is rude and starts an awful e-mail chain with the customer.
3. Customer forwards chain to Penny Arcade who is so appalled they publish it on their site.
4. Penny Arcade guy e-mails customer service guy and the guy continues to be rude and awful.
5. E-mail chain goes viral complete with internets finding out the guy is on steroids and a regular poster on a steroid user forum. Internet also finds his facebook and his wife's facebook lol.

The memes that started because of this really have me dying. My favorites are anything to do with "I wwebsite as on the internet".

Wow, wow, wow. Fantastic reads. CLASSIC case of a complete and total duchebag who stands for absolutely nothing but himself not realizing how far up shit creek he is even to this day, only sorry that he "got caught".

A complete THUG that is simply trying to weasel his way out...

Its those guys that end up driving FedEx trucks wondering constantly WTF happened.

All these Jersey Shore types need to be cleansed from the gene pool.

Oh and the whole "people are threatening my wife and kid?" Yeah, he made all that up.
