  • latalianheat, on 02/27/2009, -33/+616Something about voluntarily watching commercials doesn't exactly seem right to me.
  • greyfedora, on 02/27/2009, -3/+467Considering Ameriquest is now out of business because they lent so much money to bad credit risks, maybe they should have been a bit more judgmental...
  • D14852001neko, on 02/27/2009, -12/+301=\ funny ads huh? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6htYMjzIao&fea ...

  • kastlip88, on 02/27/2009, -7/+160#5's facial expression after he realized what they were thinking was priceless!
  • BowZzer, on 02/27/2009, -3/+136they didn't show the one where a company uses trained sales professionals to call up lower-middle class people and offer them a refinance rate that looks pretty good for the first 5 years but with a variable rate that will double their monthly payment by year 6, causing the bank to foreclose upon the house and the family to live in their car.

  • inactive, on 02/27/2009, -1/+118That reminds me of this one...

  • MLisa, on 02/27/2009, -5/+120Rarely laugh out loud on digg, but killing the fly was priceless.
  • jdames1980, on 02/27/2009, -0/+111Exactly, I thought that fact was the most hilarious part about these ads.
  • 49CentTacos, on 02/27/2009, -0/+101It's funny cause they ate semen.

  • Namco, on 02/27/2009, -1/+61Makes you want to slap a bitch.
  • pixelate, on 02/27/2009, -1/+59That's OK, Ameriquest is in no position to give anyone a mortgage.
  • nbluth, on 02/27/2009, -0/+57The daughter one was for sure the best, I mean whats more embarrassing someone thinking you're buying a prostitute or someone thinking your daughter IS a prostitute.
  • levyjl1988, on 02/27/2009, -10/+65F'ing brilliant, I never seen this on digg before.
    BTW I hate when people comment on things they've already seen before.
    There are new diggers and sometimes we miss out on submissions like this in the internet.
  • inactive, on 02/27/2009, -0/+53You know there was a button to skip the advertisement, right?
  • MattB123, on 02/27/2009, -0/+50Yeah, but that is the magic of a good ad. People actually want to watch it!
  • HiImFromReddit, on 02/27/2009, -0/+50You know that the video itself was an advertisement too right?
  • dudestuff, on 02/27/2009, -0/+49You know the video was about not judging things too quickly, right?
  • Larssonk22, on 02/27/2009, -1/+45oh snap
  • kd420, on 02/27/2009, -0/+43I still don't get why he would watch that...
  • analogkid01, on 02/27/2009, -0/+40I'm in no position to ask for a mortgage anyway, so I just watched and laughed my ass off.
  • dungbeetle, on 02/27/2009, -0/+32If they are good and you still have no interest in the product just see it as a 30 second comedy skit.
  • DubiousDrewski, on 02/27/2009, -1/+32Yeah, we know, buzz Killington. It's just a silly skit.
  • inactive, on 02/27/2009, -2/+31I look a little suspicious laughing at my monitor at work..
  • spaceshipsix, on 02/27/2009, -2/+27Actors don't work for free.
  • inactive, on 02/27/2009, -0/+24WTF?
  • rross2007, on 02/27/2009, -3/+26Does anyone actually remember what the ads were for?
  • yan89, on 02/27/2009, -1/+23Great compilation...but what I don't understand is, why some people always have to add some rock song to the "credits" of their uploaded videos -.-
  • WELLDOITLIVE, on 02/27/2009, -1/+23That's what she said

  • jrspartan53, on 02/27/2009, -2/+21they also must have missed the one where they specifically said that in the contract. or did you miss that in the contract?
  • saamisammi, on 02/27/2009, -2/+20I would laugh, but i think of this article about ameriquest:
    "That was your homework -- to watch 'Boiler Room,' " Taylor said. Managers and employees passed around the film to keep themselves fired up, she and others explained. Kendall, in a sworn declaration in the Redwood City class-action case, said that watching "Boiler Room" was part of his Ameriquest training."

    http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-ameriquest4f ...

    Mark Bomchill says he'd like to forget the year he spent hustling mortgages for Ameriquest Capital Corp. in suburban Minneapolis.
    Slugging down Red Bull caffeine drinks, sales agents would work the phones hour after hour, he said, trying to turn cold calls into lucrative "sub-prime" mortgages -- high-cost loans made to people with spotty credit.
    ...
    * Ameriquest customers filed more complaints with the Federal Trade Commission from 2000 through 2004 than did those of two of its biggest competitors combined, the agency said -- 466 compared with 101 for Full Spectrum Lending (Calabasas-based Countrywide Financial Corp.'s sub-prime unit) and 51 for Irvine-based New Century Financial Corp.

    Many of the ex-employees likened Ameriquest's culture to the rough-and-tumble world of "Boiler Room," a 2000 movie about fast-talking, young stock swindlers who revel in their powers of anything-goes salesmanship.

    The comparison is more than happenstance: "That was your homework -- to watch 'Boiler Room,' " Taylor said. Managers and employees passed around the film to keep themselves fired up, she and others explained. Kendall, in a sworn declaration in the Redwood City class-action case, said that watching "Boiler Room" was part of his Ameriquest training."
  • mogdor, on 02/27/2009, -1/+19Unfortunately your opinion isn't shared much on here. Most diggers are too busy complaining about dupes to care if some of us haven't seen stuff already.
  • dalnet22, on 02/27/2009, -8/+26old but good
  • Crozz, on 02/28/2009, -3/+20How to spot an american on the internets: look for mentions of "other countries", "this country" or "foreign" without further specification.
  • keatonkeaton998, on 02/28/2009, -0/+16why does the television in other countries seem so raunchy.. I FEEL LEFT OUT.
