I'm copying and pasting the whole post from my blog, so if it doesn't make sense, you'll know why.

Here's the link to the original post:
Buy Me a Beer...and Watch me Drink It | Blog Updates + Sneaky Things - Business Blog

And here's the actual post:

If you’ve noticed, I’ve just added the “Buy Me a Beer” plugin, which you’ve probably seen around on a few blogs. If bought a few people some beers, but its just been a kind of boring process. I mean, you buy them the beer, they get free money, and you may or may not get a backlink from the person. Chances are, they probably weren’t even thinking of you when they drank the beer you bought them, and you never saw them enjoy the beer. I’ve added the plugin to my blog, but with a new twist. For every $3 can of Coors Light beer that I get paid for, I will do the following things:
  • Actually purchase the beer and tape your name to it.
  • Film the act of me drinking said beer.
  • Give you a linkback on a post, dedicated to the beers that were bought for me.
I’m going to do one post every week with one video of me drinking all the beers that I am bought, regardless of the quantity. Each post will contain a link to everyone who bought me a beer, as well as the video of me drinking each and everyone, even if it takes me hours. At $3/beer, you could buy me 12 for $36 and probably get me tipsy. Who knows. At any rate, $3 is a fine price for a backlink on this blog, plus you get to enjoy a funny video of it too! Please comment if you have any suggestions/tips for me regarding this subject. Thanks, and BUY ME BEERS!



I've heard it was a stupid idea, some thought it was funny. Just wanted to know if anyone had some constructive criticism or anything they think would be cool for it.




Thanks in advance
 


Sounds like a fun idea.

[sorry I couldnt resist] But did you ok it with your mom since she'll have to be the one running down to the store to get it?

But again i think its a great twist and has some viral flare to it.
 
I'll give you $10 if you take a beer, shove it up your ass, and chug it. Cmon.. totally worth it and you damn well know that would be a viral video sensation on YouTube!
 
I guess I'm buying your first beer :)
Someone deleted my comment so here it is without the URL :D

Looking forward to seeing meridiancrest on a beer.
 
Three points:
  • You're definitely in high school
  • Increased Traffic = Alcoholism
  • Someone should buy 30 beers for you but hold it in escrow unless you finish them all in a 24-hour period. And, you have to drink them all in a live video webcast. No taking beers into the bathroom cause by beer 15 you'll be dumping them out.
 
Lol that'd be awesome!

I'd definitely pay to see some alcohol poisoning.
 
This is definitely not a good idea. Filming an illegal act? And doing it every week, practically on a schedule? Don't be surprised if you're in the middle of setting up your camera when the cops knock on your door.

First the thread on painkillers and now this....hah.

How do you guy know I'm not syphoning out the beer and filling the cans with water, huh?

Because you said so yourself. :D

You look a lot older than 17, but it wouldn't be a problem if you didn't plaster your age everywhere. :bigear:
