MTV2 Behind Two Headed Dog Teaser Site

Marketers and those that work for them continue to under estimate the resourcefulness of inquiring minds. Either that or they are just lazy when it comes to covering their tracks. Earlier this month, a strange site called Two Headed Dog launched with images, games and videos, all “two headed dog” themed. We, and others, eventually surmised it was related to MTV2. We were right.

Today, an email pointed us to an Animated Republic message board posting by “Daikun” who picks up on how another poster “Albright” saw a promotion for the Two Headed Dog site on GameSpot’s On the Spot. “Daikun” then looked at source code of the promo – just as someone who recently cracked a GM online promotion did – and, whadda ya know, right there in the code was reference to MTV2. We may never know whether this was the result of sloppy project management or whether the code was “leaked” intentionally. Either way, MTV2 is up to something.

I’m 65 and I’ve watched three marriages in my friend group fall apart in retirement — and the pattern isn’t infidelity or money, it’s that these men spent forty years being providers and never learned how to actually be present with another human being

I’m 44 and I just realized that the reason I call my mother every Sunday isn’t love — it’s that when I was nine she once said “you’re the only one who checks on me” and I’ve been carrying that assignment for thirty-five years without ever asking to be relieved

Psychology says people who repeatedly attract emotionally unavailable partners aren’t unlucky. They’re fluent in a specific emotional dialect learned in childhood where love always required decoding, and available people feel foreign because clarity was never part of the original language
