How to be Internet-Famous without being a jackass!
 

I'm probably sure that prettymuch everybody here knows or heard about this fellah named Matt...

....Now... you see... internet fame bothers me... because its mostly for stupid reasons... (Star Wars Kid Anyone?)

But THIS guy, actually made me fell good somehow with this video... actually... now i have the urge to do something similar someday ( WITH the dancing! )

So... talk about this (great) movie if you want, or at least about other people who made it famous Online without being creepy and 'jackassic'

Wow. Watching that video did bring a smile to my face for some reason.

Especially when he was dancing with other people.

Doing something like that is pretty cool. If you do try it BellSouth, invite the rest of us to come along!

that was actually pretty sweet....he didn't go to canada though :(

OMG. That troll from Seattle is not in Seattle! I happen to know its north of Seattle like 10-20 miles (cuz I went there).

But hey, pretty cool. Just....all I gotta say is that kid MUST be rich and bleh....WAY too much time on his hands.

Part of me even wondered if he didn't just get videos and edit himself in but I guess with the veriety and same camera placements...MAYBE not. Unless he had 20 people going around taking pictures and editing him in.

That actually is pretty neat... but if you aren't a jackass it takes all the fun out of internet-fame.

Awh, that was cute. That is actually the first time I have seen that video.

Is the numa numa guy considered being Internet famous without being a jackass?

Ahem.

He isn't rich, and while he made one trip on his own cash, the video you see there was made after Stride Gum made him an offer to make another video.

possibly, but i dont think that was intentional jackassery

I would like to do something like that...maybe something with NP forum members.....

Something like each one recording a video with a silly dance on a local spot of their home town (so, ofcourse, many countries), then slapping all together with a numbing song on the background, THUS, taking what Matt here did, and taking it to the next level?

...Yeah... sure... im crazy enough for shit like that... :)

That guy who did the trading-quest was pretty great.

Won him and his lady a house, with nothin' but a paperclip and a dream.

Ain't nothing jackassish about that.

Lucky little son of a bitch and a bit of a clever pissant, maybe.

But jackass? Naw.
