The "Talk To Me Pin" Will Render Internet Dating Obsolete

This is actually real: introducing the Talk To Me Pin! Now, for just $48.95, you can wear a little gold pin that says "TTM" and lets everyone in the "secret society of over 100 million singles" know that you want to be talked to. These cheesy commercials have been airing in the DC area for a few weeks, and are finally online today. I don't know which is my favorite -- the foreign chick who says "In my country, we don't have anything like talk to me pin" or the fake newscaster who pretends the Talk To Me Pin is breaking news:

I highly encourage exploring the Talk To Me pin site, which contains such gems as an endorsement by Mike O'Harro,

"creator of the American Sports Bar concept (Champions), charter member of the Nite Club and Bar Hall of Fame and widely known as the King of Disco..."

It's weird all of those people are available. Doesn't make any sense at all.

The fake newscaster really sold me.

Also: background music is the same as the music from Arecibo car service in Brooklyn! My favorite song.

Until I saw the reference to the " 'net", I would have never guessed this was from now. This video looks more 80's than shit that's actually from the 80's. How do they do it???

Also, I'm glad someone has finally answered women's tremendous desire to be propositioned in public. They can NEVER get that to happen...

I'm beginning to understand why I moved out of the DC area.
