Tactic 375 from the book, “How to Guarantee Your Ad Will Get Banned…And Get Seen by Millions” – make an amateur video of a teenage girl giving birth on a Leicester (England) high school field as students crowd around to watch like it’s some kind of hair pulling bitch fight.

The clip comes from the National Health Service. As with many “virals,” it’s unbranded which, as is always the case, makes us wonder, “What’s the point?” If you’re just going to shock without including any viewpoint, why do it in the first place? Oh right. We can’t actually tell people stuff. Then it would be advertising and people hate advertising. So we have to be all sneaky and shit. Hence faux viral clips such as this.

Actually, we should just shut up. Like the reveal of an old school teaser billboard, a branded version of this clip will be seeded later this week.

Created by The Rocket Science Group, the video was seeded by The 7th Chamber Friday and quickly got the boot from YouTube. Predictable, the press are all over it. The Sun. The Guardian. The Leicester Mercury. BrandRepublic.

Psychology says the boomer women who are most difficult to be close to in later life aren’t the ones who suffered most—they’re the ones who spent decades converting their suffering into a permanent orientation towards the world, one that keeps score, expects compensation, and experiences other people’s happiness as a quiet affront to everything they’ve had to endure

Psychology says the boomer generation had almost no cultural language for social anxiety or introversion—you were shy or you weren’t, you needed to push through it, you’d grow out of it—and the people who didn’t grow out of it simply learned to manage it well enough that nobody saw it, and arrived at later life with a perfectly functional social exterior and an interior that still finds every gathering costs considerably more than it appears to
