A brief story about an ad. For some reason this new 'omg your socks are so tight YOU GONNA DIE' ad has been following me around the web lately. So being me I was like... I wonder where they stole that image from because there's no way they made it themselves.Permalink On twitter.com

And lo and behold it isn't original. Nor does it have anything to do with heart attacks. Some poor person shot himself by accident and wrote about what happened afterwords in 2008 - negligentdischarge.com/updates.htmlPermalink On twitter.com

Anyway I clicked through the ad and guess what... the landing page was stolen from our friends and yours EverQuote. You can tell because it has the same layout and ridiculous 'put the legal gobldygook here' footer.Permalink On twitter.com

You can check it out at https://hearthealthmadesimple (dot) com/D184/ for yourself. It's trying to sell me something to do by Omega and is apparently sponsored by this dude whose YouTube channel hasn't seen an update in 6 years youtube.com/user/DrSamWalters/videosPermalink On twitter.com
