Make your kids pay: Get 'em in commercials
Here's a fun Friday-afternoon video courtesy of Everything Is Terrible: a lesson on how to get your kids in commercials. They're not doing anything useful, so you might as well exploit them. Sure, they'll need some training, but the guy in the video has the right idea: "It's like a polo pony. You gotta beat a polo pony to run out after a ball. It's not natural for it to do it. But if you can find a horse that does it, he becomes a good polo pony. You've gotta do the same thing with a child." Sage advice. Via Cynical-C.
