Some people here may remember when, a few years back, Mothers Against Video Game Violence launched -- not only did several newspapers and network TV news outlets get fooled into taking the site seriously, other notable retards including then-New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer referred to the site as a "resource" for parents to combat video game-inspired violence and addiction in kids.
Similarly, I would like to create a personality who specializes in UFOs, the paranormal, or even better the 2012 prophecy, with the intention of getting scheduled as a guest on a Noory-hosted edition of Coast to Coast. Like all good trolls, this personality would appear outwardly legitimate (at least as far as Coast to Coast guests can be) and, if successful, would progress from acting somewhat normal to complete and utter lunacy on the air.
What would be needed to pull this off:
- A legitimate-looking web site
- Fake book or DVD to be "sold" through the website
- A forum on the site populated by posters who appear to be taking the personality seriously
- A fake list of media mentions and appearances
- A confederate who would act as the personality's scheduler and public relations contact
- A handful of clips from previous "appearances" on radio shows, podcasts, etc
I'm pretty handy with audio engineering and I know basic HTML. In addition, I can do a few accents convincingly -- maybe a cut-glass British accent to lend the personality an additional air of legitimacy, maybe a Russian accent to explain away why most previous "appearances" were in unpronouncable radio shows and podcasts from places like Estonia and Muldova, etc.
This would present all sorts of opportunities for lulz: "George, when we are judged through the lens of history, you will be seen as one of the few visionaries with the sense to take this impending cataclysm seriously."
Noory: "Now, during the time of the Mayans, the Romans were pretty strong back then too, weren't they?"
Guest: "Yes, George, I have to say, your grasp of history is as firm as a Ph.D. That's exactly correct."
Noory: "And how does this tie in with Roswell and the etching of John Candy's face on Mars?"
Guest: "I'm glad you asked that, George. Few interviewers are as astute as you are in connecting the various elements at play here. In 1986, John Candy was abducted by future Mayans from an alternate history and taken back to the Year 1374, where he assisted the Mayan prophets. Upon his return trip to our timeline, his ship crashed in the area we now know as Roswell, and it is that crash that set off the string of events leading to the secret activities at Area 51, which in turn released quantum ion particles into the air, particles that will be activated in 2012 when the world will end in a torrent of fire and Taco Bell hot sauce."
Noory: "Fascinating. Now Nazi Germany was pretty strong back then too, weren't they?"
Guest: "That's right, George, excellent observation. Few people know it, but the Nazis were actually founded as an order circa 1396, when the ancestors of Adolf Hitler and Manute Bol performed secret ceremonies with the Mayan prophets. It was during those secret meetings that the Antikythera Mechanism was invented."
Noory: "Fascinating!"
lol. Anyway, before I get too carried away here, I would like to ask if anyone on CoastGab is interested in helping to pull this off. Make no mistake, it's immature and ridiculous, but it has the potential to be extremely fucking hilarious. And I believe pulling it off will be a lot easier than it looks -- if the Wand Guy and people who see aliens under their beds can get guest spots on C2C, then our invented UFO/Ghost/2012 expert should have no problem getting scheduled.
Let me know if you're interested and if you have any particular skills we can put to use to make this look legit.
