This reminds me of Cards Against Humanity's annual Black Friday gimmick. Last year they put a live feed on their website of a bulldozer digging a hole, and invited visitors to donate in order to keep the digging going all day. They raised a ridiculous amount of money, even though they were totally honest that there was no purpose for the hole, they were just trying to take advantage of Black Friday traffic without actually putting their product on sale, and you were basically stupid if you donated.

Great reference. I enjoy this every year.
haha I was thinking the exact same thing as I was reading this.
Yup, Black Friday is another stupid indicator, or maybe stupid barometer; yeah I think that works better :-)
