Comcast Extends 'Slowskys' With Excruciatingly Slow Loading Site

slow_loading_slowskys.jpg

Last night, we received this from the folks over at M80: "I think you may be of some help to me. I'm reaching out to you on behalf of Comcast and M80 regarding the Slowskys TV commercials. Since you are a fan of The Slowskys, I thought that you might enjoy and/or be interested in posting a video of the Slowskys. In addition to the original Slowskys commercial, we have a special outtakes video exclusively for those who are willing to help us out. You can check it out here.

I feel special. Whatever. Well, the rest of you don't have to be "willing to help us out" because you can just link to the site from here. But, be warned. Either it's a sick joke playing off the so-called slowness of DSL or it's a really lame promotional effort because the site is slower than an army or turtles stuck in a pool of molasses.

Hi!

For transparency purposes, I'm the same rep that sent the original email to AdRants.

I just wanted to let everyone know that the site linked to above has been fixed.

Also, you can view the outtakes on YouTube here: http://www3.youtube.com/watch?v=uhxlMkK5qfI.

Sorry for the inconvenience and I hope everyone enjoys the Outtakes!

~Lauren, M80
