So I’ve got a lisp. I’m reminded of this because I get roasted in “comments” on my videos occasionally. “You have a lisp… you’re gay.”
In this video I confess about how this lisp has plagued me since I was a young child and Mason McCarthy and Scott Daly used to ask me to say “dinosaur,” and then laugh at my S. But it’s not a problem anymore.
I have my own personal voiceover guy. Thanks to Slatersgarage.com for this one!
I’ve always had a brain crush on Seth Godin, and used to preach his gospel when I worked at an interactive agency pre-bubble burst. But I had lost touch with the author since his Purple Cow book, and was glad to get a dose of his new “tribal marketing” insights last week in NYC. Here’s…
First some disclosure. I’ve been sponsored by Fox for promotion of such shoes as Glee, Fringe and Lie to Me. But that was a while ago, and this news is news period. If you have Amazon Prime (which I’ve had for years simply for free shipping) then you’ve got streaming access to loads of movies…
How many technomarketing cliches can I work into one headline? The majority of consumer generated video is consumed while we “lean forward” (computer). Now there’s a new way to reach those “leaning back” (television). BlipTV and Akimbo (a set-top box maker) have partnerered so Akimbo users can access the best user-generated videos. Although BlipTV isn’t…
Yesterday I paid homage to Take180’s Kelly (Shoes) sponsorship, but also critiqued some technical problems on the site. I have to give Take180 the “Blip Customer Service” award (and award so rare it’s named after the only company that 2 years ago had a founder interrupt his dinner to help a random guy). Within hours…
It’s not the first year a Superbowl ad was produced by an amateur (source: Advertising Age report on USAToday poll). But this year’s $2000.00 commercial featuring a crystal ball getting tossed into a Doritos machine beat many of the Madison-created commercials. It’s a good day for companies like Poptent/Xlntads, which contract with amateurs to produce…
No I’m not sure if this is promoting or vilifying illegal drug use. But I’m not sure it matters. This weirdly repetitive music gets stuck in your ear like a maggot in a festering puss wound while you’re traveling in search of El Dorado in the Amazon in the 1910s without any medication. Brought to…

Bah, fuck em. The lisp is badass and don’t let anyone else tell you it isn’t.
Well my good friend Bobby Valentine says he doesn’t even notice the lisp! (funny video Kev!) yumajohnny
I love your lisp, makes the videos much more ‘comical’ 😛
Brilliant! Can I get that voice over guy to make a calls to AT$T Customer Service for me?
Don’t let a road construction worker punch you in the face knocking your front tooth out or you’ll find your “F” is gone, too.
(not to worry, I got his “F”, too)
Just ask them a question — “Am I visiting YOUR site, watching YOUR videos? Didn’t think so.” Got’em!
(And often the very things that we would each change about ourselves would take away from who we are.)
You have a lisp! You’re gay!!
:P. Anyone who says that should be beat damn it. Your lisp is fine. I saw the video last night, the voice over was done well. I like how professional it sounds.
You sound like a fag with that lisp, get off youtube! your a disgrace to the american language! (but that doesn’t matter to me). You should listen to the nobody likes onions podcast, they have a guy that breaths really really heavily down the mic (their shows are about an hour long).
I love the video, but I still blame GooTube for stealing your voice!
Have fun tomorrow, Mr. Viral Videologist!
Wow Nalts I never noticed! What is it you have trouble saying?
Nalts! I am SO WITH YOU ON THIS! I have a lisp too! or, i did… not so much anymore! I went to a speech therapist for 14 years… so i’m pretty good with my ssssssssssssssssssssssssss’s now!
I know for a fact that Nalts does not have a lisp. It’s just that his mouth is constantly full of Nonfat Doritos fried in delicious Olestra.
PC is remembering a meeting in which I pledged to complete an entire bag of Olien Doritos (because I heard about the stool droppings and wanted to see them for myself).
Doesn’t Olestra cause anal leakage?

Thumpety thump thump. Dinothaw.
