ArmchairGM Web Commercial 006

by user Manny Stiles

This one is crappier than ever! To prove how ghetto I am, I bootlegged my own commercial. This one has Manny Stiles pitted against a very "Special Guest Star" in a game of one on one basketball; you've seen him before, you know him well, but now he's back in action and he's better than ever!

It's Manny Stiles vs Orange Striped Shorts!

  • Officially, I will blame Microshaft for rendering my Windows Movie Maker save-less. I am currently seeking much better and proficient movie editing software (any suggestion? The free-r the better!)  I was able to spend WAAAY to long filming, uploading, editing and saving the "project" only to be unable to have Movie maker convert it to an .mpeg or .avi. So after days of stressful call management to technical assistance in India, I decided to go old school. I played the video on my computer and filmed it with my camera!!!

Very No Budget Productions does it again!!!

I'm an idea guy, a conceptualist, not a perfectionist!!! If you wanan get together with your ample funding, we can do some things! Enjoy!

 

New!!! the NON-bootleg version!!!

kickback? Not only did we pay for kicking germany's and Japan's asses... then we paid to REBUILD them!! How do they repay us? By taking our inventions and making them better!!! Son of a...

Seriously though, America has rested on our laurels for too long. Granted we're atour best when times are the worst, but we slack off the rest of the time!

We DO still owe Britain a little sumthin, sumthin for burning the White House! Long live Dolly Madison!!!

USA is heading into a recession - the government are worrying because of your inflation. Ours dropped to 2.7% last month (CPI, 4.2% RPI), which is back down to where we're aiming. USA has a stronger economy than us obviously, but ours is more stable (just about).

Pookie vs Orange Striped Shorts breakdown.
  • size- about equal, slight advantage to Pookie
  • skills- Pookie can sing her ass off, Shorts smell like ass, advantage Pookie
  • determination- shorts all the way, they keep coming back
  • style- advantage Pookie, she "Grrrs" on her dunks
Maybe I'll have a showdown (another commercial perhaps?)

well; the shorts, me not dunking... that's Oscar-quality acting. My wife breaking ankles... that's fact. She is THE basketball player in the family, no doubt. She has busted MANY dudes ankles AND she has a sweet jumper. She is Alice Iverson (with fewer tatts). Actually the next commercial may or may not have me getting destroyed by a bunch of 11 year olds... I guess you'll have to wait and see!

What? If it wasn't for lightning bugs and wiffle ball bats as a kid, I would have never developed my hand-eye coordination so well! Nowadays, I'm more humane. When I find crickets (there tons in AZ), I capture them and let them swim in my aquarium with "Pigger"!

true story - I once watched a friend joke about catching a fly with a pair of scissors (a la Karate Kid). He already had scissors in his hand when a fly was buzzing around his head. He took ONE swipe and actually caught the fly by the wing, pinching it between the blades of the scissors at the tip without cutting it! We were both VERY stunned. The fly was stuck to the end of the scissors buzzing trying to get free. He opened the scissors and it flew away! One of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Yes, I was totally sober when this happened.
