Internet Explorer 8 Is Disgustingly Stupid
tags:Do you suffer from a case of "I answered Google when asked what a web browser is"? If so, listen carefully to this ad, as it explains a feature IE8 took from Chrome as a unique IE8 feature.
Also, "If she doesn't know it won't hurt her" seems to be the motto of republican politicians these days. Not sure Microsoft is wise to adopt it here...

Certainly not a real Microsoft ad. Somebody should tag this as parody
The youtube user is ie8videos. His channel has an official logo and several other similar ads, with Dean Cain.

Don't tag stuff unless you actually know what you're doing, please.

You're right, if you go to the site advertised at the end of the video, not only is it owned by Microsoft, but it contains the video. These are purely designed to appeal to the interwebs and will never be shown on TV. Still, it's irritating when a monopoly pretends to be edgy.
Actually, the one that encourages you to send photos of prison shank cat to all your black friends has got to be more controversial then this. http://www.videosift.com/video/S-H-Y-N-E-S-S-Internet-Explorer-8
*lies
cant belive anyone has typed parody after rosser99 tried
Removed from parody channel.
Parody - A literary or artistic work that imitates the characteristic style of an author or a work for comic effect or ridicule.
This is an official Microsoft ad designed to make people see the benefits of the InPrivate browsing feature in Internet Explorer 8. It is NOT a parody, it is simply Microsoft attempting to be hip and cool with a viral ad that would never see TV time.
"Only Internet Explorer 8 [blah blah]" lies.
No portion of that phrase is used in this ad <shrug>.

Browse better than IE7? Not exactly a lie =P
Browse better than IE7? Not exactly a lie =P
You hear "Browse better than IE7". And technically speaking, your'e right.
We hear "IE8 is superior to Chrome and Firefox, even though it took those two browsers to actually get superior features and acquire a significant market share for us to improve our stagnant browser".
That table is so full of lies that make me want to slap the marketing douche that compiled it, and this ad continues it's spirit, even if not as overtly.
AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
Edit: Man, this commercial is horrid though. Puke doesn't really sell anything; it's just gross. I should start a marketing firm and target MSFT specifically; anything is better than this stuff...

What a little bitch, he was only trying to be helpful

Sorry if he was offended by that, but the post doesn't belong in the parody channel. Three clicks and he could have found that out, but he assumed it was, and was wrong about it.
Anyway, my whole point was that you should be sure about what you're doing before you start adding other people's posts to channels.
Holy crap that's about the worst piece of advertisement I've ever seen. They're basically admitting they're slower, but hoping you wont notice?
...and that's the last time i'll ever utter that sentence aloud while i type.

Agreed, the table has plenty of lies. But the ad, by itself does not. In the end it doesn't matter all that much that this made the Lies channel, I just find that the Lies channel is over used. It seems to be used very often if someone simply disagrees with the video, not if the video actually contains lies.
