  • pbarbier, on 10/12/2007, -30/+23She rocks.
    • canadianguy33, on 10/12/2007, -16/+57It's funny but I wouldn't say 'she rocks'. I'd say that she's a nut job.

      From the article:
      "So for the next two weeks, starting with today, I will exact revenge on my whoring husband. And who knows what a disparaged woman with lots of resources at her disposal might do?! It’s going to be 14 days of vengeance. 14 days of unbridled revenge. 14 days of Steven looking over his back to see what’s coming next."


    • nudedave, on 10/12/2007, -30/+3That's Great! I agree she does rock. But after her 14 day's she better be done. If she continues past her 14 days then I agree with the nut job statement.
    • KingAdrock, on 10/12/2007, -5/+24If she really wanted to take a piece out of this guy -- she'd use a last name or pictures. I'm thinking this is some kind of viral campaign.
    • vonnie, on 10/12/2007, -13/+9This billboard and the pure anger and hate on her blog tells more about her than about him. If she is always that angry and always takes revenge in this way, I don't blame the husband for cheating on her.
      Think about it, what will his friends and coworkers really think? 'Stupid slimebag, cheating on his wife' or 'damn his wife is a nutjob, good thing he is getting a divorce'.
    • armbar, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2Buckcherry has a song about this woman. Crazy Bitch.
    • mstar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15This is a fraud. Virial marketing, linked to Court TV

    • DuoPros, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Look closely at the lettering; youll see the fuzziness that usually comes with photoshop/GIMP/mspaint.
  • mlm430047, on 10/12/2007, -31/+5Awesome! Rock on Emily!
  • spumescent, on 10/12/2007, -39/+5Wow! Sweet billboard! I heard about this on the radio today. Had to make sure it was on digg.

    You go girl!
    • RaistlinMajere, on 10/12/2007, -16/+36Men, it's time to stick together and mod these bitches down. Cheers.
  • zkarcher, on 10/12/2007, -25/+13Am I a bad person if I don't see the justice in this?

    It's certainly amusing, but I'm guessing that "Steven" isn't flaunting this affair out in the open for everyone to see. It irks me that she isn't showing him the same courtesy, yet she's receiving a lot of vocal support from the crowd.
    • wtweber, on 10/12/2007, -14/+15"It irks me that she isn't showing him the same courtesy" I'm not sure what you think courtesy is. I don't think courtesy is lying, cheating, and sneaking around behind her back. The courteous thing to do would have been to end the marriage then start a new relationship. He deserves everything he is getting.
  • lolage, on 10/12/2007, -17/+9Haha. Now women all over the world will follow her acts of madness. What have you done emily, what have you DONE??

    I think ill be extra nice to my lady.
  • JaySantos, on 10/12/2007, -12/+2I agree with zkarcher, but I'm gonna digg it just to see where it goes :)
  • hoowahman, on 10/12/2007, -13/+6Steven's correct route on the situation should have been devorcing Emily first, then dating her best friend. I think it's good she is doing this maybe he wont cheat on his next wife? Being cheated on is a horrible thing and the cheater should go through some pain that's for sure.
  • Nightcrawler12, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1hahaha, sounds like my kind of woman. He might be able to argue that she "wasted" funds during their marriage, and that's why he was unhappy.
  • dschreib, on 10/12/2007, -3/+45This is a viral marketing campaign. Signs have gone up in LA as well. http://boifromtroy.com/?p=5622...some sort of movie or book, or maybe a bank ("our joint account"
  • toddomatic, on 05/20/2008, -4/+4My first thought was that this was a marketing campaign... Along the lines of the "TRADE BARRY" billboard that went up in front of the Giants stadium earlier this year. http://wcco.com/watercooler/local_story_095125612.html
  • Lurz, on 10/12/2007, -10/+6And did you know that thatgirlemily is quite happy that she's going to have an abortion!?
  • Hawkstra, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2Omg that's hilarious!
  • tunercircle, on 10/12/2007, -12/+1Women are so unpredictable .. :) She got her points across though ... Rock on !
  • jrizzo, on 10/12/2007, -5/+14Doe this look photoshoped to anyone else? I want to say that its not, but something about the text looks wrong...
    • dan2, on 10/12/2007, -8/+4Yep, it's fake. Funny though.
    • kbeeveer46, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4I didn't know billboards were transparent either? Maybe I don't get out enough?
    • starman, on 10/12/2007, -5/+6That was my first thought. The lighting on it is way off.
    • kryx, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4If you look at it closer, it doesn't look so much like a regular billboard, but more like a banner (you can see the strings holding it up), which could explain the transparency...
    • dclowd9901, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Guys, it's a real billboard, but it's not a real person. This is part of a viral marketing campaign. http://boifromtroy.com/?p=5622...some
  • SentOne, on 10/12/2007, -11/+6crazy bitch.
  • vandread, on 10/12/2007, -15/+6and THAT is why you don't let a woman have access to your bank account. NOT only is she going to screw you in divorce (and chances are that's been the first time she's screwed you in a long time which is why he had to find it elsewhere) but she's gonna drain your bank account to put up a billboard announcing the fact that she couldn't keep you happy and you had to look elsewhere. NEVER EVER EVER let a woman have control of your bank account.
    • ReggieUW, on 10/12/2007, -5/+6Definitely BS, no doubt about it.
    • starquake, on 10/12/2007, -6/+6@vandread
      I wouldn't marry a wife I cannot trust. Call me stupid, but rather guess wrong then be too cautious all my life.
    • crad14, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2@vandread
      Or don't enter into a marriage with someone and not hold up your end of the bargain. If someone's not "keeping you happy" then at least divorce them and then find someone else instead of being a coward and sneaking around with another woman.
      It's definitaly a fake, but your comment is way off base.
    • vandread, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@starquake

      How many people get married and share their account with a person because they trust them implicitly? Just because you trust them when you get married doesn't mean people don't change. They do. Its better to be prepared for the future than to be screwed later.

      and, @crad14

      Your right, if it was true then he should have just DTB. But he didn't that still wouldn't justify anyone taking your money. Even if it is fake, I honestly can see some women today doing something like that because women, generally, not all there are always exceptions to the rule, are sneaky conniving bitches who marry a guy then just expect to not have to give anything in return and the man should be the only one to compromise on any situation.

      Don't get married, there's no benefit for men it it anywhere. All you get when you get married is a legal obligation to support her when she cheats on you or won't live up to her wifely duties and you have to get it someplace else.
  • chicken101, on 10/12/2007, -7/+5Yeah, this is BS. You can tell because she refers to her husband as "Stephen" and never "my husband". Not even once.
    • Densetsu, on 10/12/2007, -5/+4But she does call herself "Your wife"...

      I mean, I never call my brother "brother", or my cousin "cousin". Does that mean that they're not related to me?
  • starman, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Marked as lame. It's an ad.

    Think about it...you see the kind of building it's on? Now, do you really think that anyone with enough money to put up a billboard would put it THERE?
  • Homez, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Desperate Housewives anyone?
  • ScottAG, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2Dr. Phil woulda been MUCH more effective.
  • Guspaz, on 10/12/2007, -8/+5Wow, what a mentally disturbed lady.
    • acetv, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Some would call her a "psycho bitch".
    • technique, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Hey, you're a crazy bitch, but I love the way you ***** me
  • ashlita, on 10/12/2007, -10/+4if it's an advertisement, what is it promoting?

    this chick is my hero if it's for real
  • Densetsu, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Looks more like a giant banner than a billboard. It's a bit transparent, and you can see grommets and rope around the edges.

    Still, it's cool. I'll wait it out and see if it's a hoax / ad campaign, though.
  • KyleRayner, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4Well, I thought gay marriage was the biggest threat to American Family Values. XD

    Anyway, if it is a marketing campaign, thats pretty inventive.
  • butlershouse, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1hmmm ... im waitnig for the Quack . can anyone else hear the expectant QUACK ?
  • iSamurai, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Sorry to ruin everything :

  • uptown, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Sounds like the "I Hate Steven Singer" campaign:

    http://www.jckgroup.com/article/CA6293721.html
  • Foenetik, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4it's definately an ad,the same billboard would'nt be up in LA if not,maybe washington mutual or some crap like that.meh
  • acAeris99, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Hell hath no wrath....
  • mikesherov, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3http://thatgirlemily.blogspot.com/2006/07/i-guess-i-never-mentioned-why-i.html

    this is the entry that makes it a definite fake. so much foreshadowing?
  • Soniti, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Just read the blog- the wording is not that of a woman scorned, but that of a viral marketing campaign.

    I didn't even read the comments here, and I predicted it was something along the lines of Ilovebees.

  • Veamon, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Can someone say slander?
  • gmurray, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I think this is viral marketing. This kind of marketing loves digg. :(
  • beatmix01, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1how about this though.,.. more proof that it is legit.

  • dron55, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0talk about useless drama lol
  • Loonacy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4"Everything's caught on tape."
    Mirror?
  • wshalo, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3If this is true, she said it's caught on tape. If you want to get back at him spread the tape on the internet. YouTube it!
  • Puffball, on 10/12/2007, -9/+4I see a lot of comments remarking under the general theme of, "gee, that's silly! She's been cheated on and she sure got him back! ROCK ON EMILY". The truth is that as much of an ***** this Steven character may be, nothing constitutes urban pollution that raises people's blood pressure simply by driving down a road.

    Its unfair. If you can't get past her eerily childish teen angst without embracing her, then at least do yourself a favor and realize that she meets the criteria of the descriptors she used of her ex-husband in the billboard. Oh, and, don't forget she's ***** crazy.
  • noeljohnhoward, on 10/12/2007, -11/+3hahaha

    *****.


    but good for her,

    id do it

    but id add a pic of him and the girl

    blacked out privates tho
  • beatmix01, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3and this...

    http://talk.sheknows.com/showthread.php?t=466369

    dated before she found out from the PI
    • Nougat, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4That exact same text is posted in a number of different forums.
    • russryba, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Come on, it's an Ad campian. This banner appears in multiple locations across the country at the same time. Some advertisers will get some interesting stats/data of how putting up an add correlates directly to visitors to a website from statcounter.com and sitemeter.com.

      Her wonderful post was dated one week before this ad went up. The account was created the date this was posted. July 7, post sappy best friend Laura story, next day sign up and with random forum account post about wanting kids, few hours later, Laura's cheating on me. Within a week, she found out and paid for and got advertising in place across the country, and somehow plans to keep posting stuff about it online for 14 days. A wife's vengence for being cheated on will be gone in 2 weeks... right.

      >> This ***** is todays Chain Letter.
  • gwalbridge, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I wonder how many Stevens and Emilys will have their relationship ruined because of this? Sorta reminds me of Dave Chappelle's "Zapped" where the wife plays a cruel joke by faking a cheat situation, but the husband comes out and admits he's been banging the secretary for years. Oops.
  • WeeklyGeek, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Jesus. The man must have known his wife was capable of that brand of crazy. He deserves it.
  • Rizmaster, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3I'd totally bone this woman.
  • sonicdeath, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1pwned
  • debney, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1What a waste of money, just leave him. You just look like a nutcase.
  • hillscottc, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1A double standard exists here. What if some guy I knew told me some woman left him, so he was going to devote his life to a hissy-fit of bitchy revenge. I would tell him he was a LOSER, and he needs to GET OVER IT. But if a woman does it, it's YOU GO GIRL! Sickening. This woman should be sued for slander. Then shot.
  • Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5VIRAL MARKETING ALERT..........VIRAL MARKETING ALERT

    Come on, people who believe it. This has got to be viral. I mean, look how much buzz it has generated already.

    Also, marketing people can post on forums, too, just like regular human beings
  • ArcusOfSV, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Id like to see what she looks like. I looked around but I cant find any Pics.
  • wilf_brim, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Too bad, this was dishy, but clearly a fake. I'm only mildly curious what this is a campaign for? Wine? (she mentioned Napa). A movie? A book? Pr0n?

    I was very suspicous when there are so few postings on the blog, and a completely empty profile. Also, note this billboard is up in at least 3 cities; New York, LA, and Houston.
  • Scooley01, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Damn, it sucks that it's fake. What would REALLY rock is if it was real, but she was mistaken, and he wasn't cheating :D
