... and That's Why God Invented the Internet
Mark gets a no-prize in a plain paper bag for bringing us what I assume is another one of those independent viral commercials. Yes, kids, before the internet we had to walk up and buy porn at a newsstand just like it was Time magazine or something.
And damn if that wasn't embarrassing or skeevey. Either you're at your local Stop-n-Rob asking for the 3-pack of "Big-Uns", the local video store going behind the curtain*, or you had to go to a pr0n store (which meant you really didn't want to touch anything because your feet were already sticking to the floor). It was horrible, I tell you - horrible.
Especially if someone's mother walked into the store or saw you coming out of the curtains/pr0n store.
*Yes, prior to Blockbuster owning the market, videos (those VHS things, not the shiny round discs) would be rented at the store. Adult videos were only available in a "special" section that was curtained off from the rest of the store.
