Smirnoff’s “Tea Partay” Music Video
ByNalts
This is pretty funny. It’s Smirnoff’s viral ad featuring rich Northeastern guys rapping… in top siders and circa 1980 preppy clothes.

On a visit to Smosh.com, I noticed the fellas had a little widget that recognized me as Nalts and had a subscribe button. So I snatched the HTML iFrame thingy, and managed to insert it as a wordpress widget. iFrames usually make my blog puke, but they’re working okay.

Pffft,I’d rather floss (and if you’ve seen my teeth in one of my recent videos, you’d know that’s saying something!)
