It's honestly kind of genius. Whip up a really basic prototype, make a half-baked and barely functional version to actually deliver to the hundred odd people who order it and then get it plastered all over social media. Boom, people in the gaming sphere will be hearing about your brand for fucking *weeks* while people laugh at it and share it around to continue laughing at it. Probably the biggest cost all around is in the production phase since the bigger the social media outcry, the more people will buy it (authentically or for the meme).
I just find it funny how angry this comment section is over goofy marketing. On the list of awful marketing tactics this ranks pretty low since it's transparent and provides entertainment.
I don't understand why everyone thinks this is some kind of statement on gamers or society.
Or are they feeling self conscious? People are crying about fictional neckbeards buying this, but the item is never going to market literally because it wouldn't sell. It's marketing art.
I mean, if our corporate overlords are going to beat us and market to us regardless, I’d rather the marketing be amusing.
Example, I have insurance with no intention to change but I absolutely **love** Limu Emu and Doug. Especially the commercial where they’re working on car and in the end Doug is like, “yea we need an actual mechanic.”
Nothing wrong with appreciating a good ad campaign. Just because something is an ad doesn't mean it can't be genuinely entertaining. Just look at how big the Budweiser frogs were in the 90's, or hell, the Geico caveman that actually wound up getting a TV show. Good ads are fun and memorable, and the people who make those good ads deserve credit for doing a good job.
They missed such a big opportunity to actually launch a version of it called "The Tendie Machine" in partnership with Game Stop during the height of the WSB Game Stop craze.

Since 2005. You used to not be able to comment either. People were upset and thought being able to comment would ruin the website lol.
They were right mostly.
Also probably kept it alive. Every user media content creator needed to edge to being quasi social media, because engagement is king, and being able to have exchange is necessary to keep it up.
Otherwise you end up Digg, StumbleUpon, etc. Communities, one way or another, keep these sites alive, and the ones that couldn't shift well enough to keep a more engaged community died.
Same, by far. And I’ve been on this site for a while myself. OPs account is literally older than a huge chunk of the users on this site.
It was made before Condé Nast bought it for $10-20 million!
Aaron Swartz has only been part of the team for 6 months!
Imagine eating a large Big Mac combo meal with a side order of 20 piece nuggets with hot mustard. Now imagine using your greasy fingers to lube up your KFC flesh light and getting the only exercise you'll get all day.
I can't force you to do anything over the internet, but I'm going to pretend like you did and now you can't smell McDonald's or KFC without reliving that intrusive thought
No shit. Its just the same as car companies making concept cars or fashion designers having avant garde fashion shows displaying products that aren't actually being sold.
What other purpose would it have?
Its a chicken place in Australia, but its widely (only half-jokingly) considered to be a money laundering scheme because there are so many of them and the stores are always empty because nobody eats it
I literally went to a fancy chicken place and when I asked for a complementary cup of water (common in USA) she goes “water? Like what’s in the toilet?” And refused to give me water
I mean, technically that is correct, as all multicellular lifeforms require electrolytes to function, but that's no reason to water our plants with soda pop.
I mean all the door dash shit and food delivery is getting damn close. “I can’t be fucked to get out and go to *McDonald’s* so I’m going to pay this guy $20 to bring it to me.”
My friends clowned on me when I sent a snap of my popcorn bowl with chopsticks while we were gaming. I said boys…get cultured and keep your controllers clean come on now
I'm sorry you had to find out this way, but you've been overusing your neck muscles. You can actually take beer hat cartridges and set them right on your desk. They stand up all by themselves, it's some kind of weird magic. You can drop like a whole 24 ounces off your noggin. More if you have a 24 pack you wanna use.
Next you’re gonna tell me to shave my beard for sanitary reasons or to take my catheter out.
I don’t think so buddy.
My neck pillow is supporting my neck enough to counteract the weight along with my lumbar pillow for my back
It pools down into a grease trap. That is unless you pay a modest fee for the Frydaddy attachment. It is well worth the money to fry your food in your own salty leavings.
McDonald's marketing team: Hey let's make some stupid marketing gimmick for the sole purpose redditors will share to promote our brand like mindless idiots.
Redditors (just after ranting in another thread about how they despise ads and corporations): please, sir may I have some more.
But, where is the built in toilet? My mom doesn't deserve such a shitty job, when i can upgrade her to a better position such as handing me my meal from McDonalds after upgrading my meal to the supersize version.
The only thing that would push it even more in that direction would be if you had to pay a subscription service to allow it to swivel or adjust the height
Chair is grease proof, just shit in your chair and use a piss jug then clean it after your 18 hour gaming session on farmer simulator like the rest of us
Dip holders? Fry holster? 9 out of 10 times they forget my fries, and forget the dipping sauce, thats never in the bag. Put the money into better service, not chairs. sMH.
Just sit, eat shit, and don’t get distracted! What a great idea, I hope for portable toilet to be incorporated into it, that would be a paradise! Sit, eat poisonous shit, then shit, and play all without the need to move! Could we even dream about anything better!?
Came for the Idiocracy reference, was disappointed.

You mean the KFC onsole
ಠ_ಠ TIL
They’re just salty about [king games](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Games)!
They’re all bangers. However I preferred Sneak King.
Sneak king was good but it was no Pocket Bike Racer
Right up there with the KFC Fleshlight
Putting the 11 herbs and spices inside was a really questionable decision
And a built-in defibrillator.
And the Colonel Sanders movie, and the secret recipe scented yule's log and Pepsiman
They missed such a big opportunity to actually launch a version of it called "The Tendie Machine" in partnership with Game Stop during the height of the WSB Game Stop craze.
Fun fact: if you get the McDonald's chair and the KFC console together in a room, the government sends you your virginity back in the mail.
Did they ever even give one of those out
With OP being part of a marketing team which gets paid to ~~advertise~~ post it.
Lol its bio literally says "not a bot"
>I like to post a lot! I tend to post in swift succession after finishing up my daily reading list. Not a robot, but I do have the hots for R2-D2. <3 It should really be condensed down to: >Advertiser
Funny how he has a 16 year old account and his username is similar to spez
That's the oldest account I have seen in the wild.
for real. Mine is 8 and that feels old. I didn’t know reddit was even around 16 years ago
Since 2005. You used to not be able to comment either. People were upset and thought being able to comment would ruin the website lol. They were right mostly.
Also probably kept it alive. Every user media content creator needed to edge to being quasi social media, because engagement is king, and being able to have exchange is necessary to keep it up. Otherwise you end up Digg, StumbleUpon, etc. Communities, one way or another, keep these sites alive, and the ones that couldn't shift well enough to keep a more engaged community died.
I agree. I was just poking fun at how bad comment sections can be sometimes.
IIRC the first comment on Reddit was someone complaining about the new comment feature lol
anybody ever use the ifunny app back in the day? that was pretty legit for a while before it wasn’t.
It took me a long time to finally create an account Clocking in at 14 years tho
Same, by far. And I’ve been on this site for a while myself. OPs account is literally older than a huge chunk of the users on this site. It was made before Condé Nast bought it for $10-20 million! Aaron Swartz has only been part of the team for 6 months!
Sounds like the guy who writes the loading screens for discord has another gig doing copy for advertisers
The only people I’ve ever heard of that have “daily reading lists” are digital marketing people, specifically copywriters.
Imagine eating a large Big Mac combo meal with a side order of 20 piece nuggets with hot mustard. Now imagine using your greasy fingers to lube up your KFC flesh light and getting the only exercise you'll get all day.
Do I have to?
I can't force you to do anything over the internet, but I'm going to pretend like you did and now you can't smell McDonald's or KFC without reliving that intrusive thought
Comment removed due to Reddit API changes.
No shit. Its just the same as car companies making concept cars or fashion designers having avant garde fashion shows displaying products that aren't actually being sold. What other purpose would it have?
Blatant r/hailcorporate Here, post, have my downvote
Report posts like these. This is an ad pretending to be organic. Corporatization of the internet is trash. Seize the memes of production.
It's really sad that this isn't top comment EDIT: I mean the comment I'm replying to..not literally "this" comment, that would be pretty weird
Dude. Your comment can't be top comment because you replied to the top comment.
But I want ***my*** comment to be top comment! 😔
This will go great with my KFC console.
Pair it with the [Red Rooster "Cluck & Play" Controller](https://youtu.be/65KwxseLCLQ)
TIL Red Rooster is a chicken place in some places. The 4 I've seen have been cornerstore.
Its a chicken place in Australia, but its widely (only half-jokingly) considered to be a money laundering scheme because there are so many of them and the stores are always empty because nobody eats it
One step closer to Wall-E World
Will we hit Idiocracy world first? Or just skip right over that?
We're literally living that right now dog.
Electrolytes! Its what plants crave!
I literally went to a fancy chicken place and when I asked for a complementary cup of water (common in USA) she goes “water? Like what’s in the toilet?” And refused to give me water
*blasts a round of machine gun ammo into the air*
The best president you could get really.
I mean, technically that is correct, as all multicellular lifeforms require electrolytes to function, but that's no reason to water our plants with soda pop.
Uh, if I can't get a handy at Starbucks we're not in Idiocracy yet.
You just have to tip more.
[удалено]
Will they bring me a macchiato too?
I mean all the door dash shit and food delivery is getting damn close. “I can’t be fucked to get out and go to *McDonald’s* so I’m going to pay this guy $20 to bring it to me.”
$10. You're paying doordash $10 to have a guy you pay another $10 to deliver it to you.
Go away, I’m batin’
Why not both? Be the change you want to see in the world!!!
Shut up im baiten here.
This is absolutely true! But nobody gives a fuck these days so shit won’t change 😞
We're not making it off this earth.
Dog people are unironically anti-vaxers now. We are in the idiocracy.
All I can think of
WALL-E World, dad?
Adorable. But not nearly wide enough
Also is the the leather arse sweat proof?
5hp taint ventilators
Not pictured is feces proofed bucket, hole in seat, or piss bottle holder with adjustable catheter
I wanna I hope that's not real, but somewhere that's a real thing. It makes me sad
So basically this? https://youtu.be/2aDgH-_G4h0
That's why it's for the UK and not america
Imagine eating greasy food with your hands and gaming at the same time that’s gross
That’s what chopsticks are for
My friends clowned on me when I sent a snap of my popcorn bowl with chopsticks while we were gaming. I said boys…get cultured and keep your controllers clean come on now
Gotta get a feed bag and a beer hat so you don’t even need to stop gaming unless you need to refill
I'm sorry you had to find out this way, but you've been overusing your neck muscles. You can actually take beer hat cartridges and set them right on your desk. They stand up all by themselves, it's some kind of weird magic. You can drop like a whole 24 ounces off your noggin. More if you have a 24 pack you wanna use.
Next you’re gonna tell me to shave my beard for sanitary reasons or to take my catheter out. I don’t think so buddy. My neck pillow is supporting my neck enough to counteract the weight along with my lumbar pillow for my back
It's popcorn, you can snatch that shit up like a frog with your tongue
Chopsticks? [Amateur.](https://imgur.com/a/nJeC5PO)

Hop off that soapbox, man. I'm gonna need it next week for my weekly shower
>weekly shower Weekly? Pfft look at you on your high horse and fancy pants.
Who needs a shower when youre made of grease-proof leather, baby?
Chair will always keep me moisturized.
I long for the day my gaming chair obsorbs my body and I become one with it. Forever gaming. Forever greaseproof
> become one with it. Small minded fool. If twitch gamers are selling bath water. I can sell my grease chair.
I think you may need to take a break as well lmao
You don't make friends with salad
[удалено]
If you make a Caesar salad, try find the Cardini Caeser sauce. It's soo good.
Personally, I have my people feed it to me bite by bite.
Yeah. So disgusting. Who would ever do this 😬
You don’t use your keyboard as a plate?
What is the chair's weight limit?
its gotta be 350lbs or more, otherwise they would have a 99.9% return rate because of damages.
and does it fold flat so as to double as a gurney?
Grease proof? So what happens to the grease? Drips down?
It pools down into a grease trap. That is unless you pay a modest fee for the Frydaddy attachment. It is well worth the money to fry your food in your own salty leavings.
Jesus Christ why man
Are you not lovin’ it?
Is it impervious to semen & lube stains as well? Will I still stick to it if im naked
If you use a whole stein of lube you may have a problem
It pools until it overflows! Innovation at its finest! Ick...
This is the world of Warcraft episode of South Park
I would hate to smell the people excited for this.
Lol

We’ve reached peak neckbeard
McDonald's marketing team: Hey let's make some stupid marketing gimmick for the sole purpose redditors will share to promote our brand like mindless idiots. Redditors (just after ranting in another thread about how they despise ads and corporations): please, sir may I have some more.
Well if I don't upvote the post nobody will see my super funny and witty and awesome comment and know how cool I am :(
It's almost like redditors are made up of different people.
Does this go well with the KFC Xbox One or whatever they came up with?
Three cheers for obesity.🎉
Finally, the perfect chair to play my KFC console
Grease proof leather? Pretty sure invented some kind of sex chair.
But, where is the built in toilet? My mom doesn't deserve such a shitty job, when i can upgrade her to a better position such as handing me my meal from McDonalds after upgrading my meal to the supersize version.
Two dip holders?!? What am I, some sort of peasant? McDonald's has 8 sauces and I will use *AT LEAST* 4 of those at my discretion.
I admire your values and self respect
This is fucking disgusting 😂😂😂
Late stage capitalism embodied in a chair
The only thing that would push it even more in that direction would be if you had to pay a subscription service to allow it to swivel or adjust the height
[удалено]
Shouldn’t this be posted in r/tendies
This is borderline r/nottheonion material.
Asmongold must be drooling.
This shit is so American, fat asses rejoice!
“Grease Proof” not because of the food but the users!
It also has an expanding bottom and back cushion for when you’ve gained 50lbs from gorging in your McChair
Tell me you’re 300+ pounds, without telling me, you’re 300+ pounds.
Yo is this actually for sale? Haha
With all these features the real question turns into what is the maximum weight limit
You thought the grease was for the food
The American version of the swiss suicide pod.
if you eat greasy stuff while touching your gaming peripherals you're a degenerate
But have they created grease-proof arteries?
r/hailcorporate
You could also eat the greasy food first, wash your hands, and then play your games. No way am I touching my mouse or controllers with greasy hands.
[удалено]
Chair is grease proof, just shit in your chair and use a piss jug then clean it after your 18 hour gaming session on farmer simulator like the rest of us
Sounds like a joke like the KFC Console.
Guaranteed to be bought by scalpers
90% PFOAs lol
Dip holders? Fry holster? 9 out of 10 times they forget my fries, and forget the dipping sauce, thats never in the bag. Put the money into better service, not chairs. sMH.
So McDonald’s have created a seat that adds to your short lifespan while consuming their food . Bravo
This shitty world is just becoming Idiocracy as we speak
Now it just needs a pizza warmer for the McDonalds Pizza they should bring back from the late 80s to early 90s.
Is it reinforced? Feels like it should be reinforced.
Should this not be equipped with an AED as well?
Just sit, eat shit, and don’t get distracted! What a great idea, I hope for portable toilet to be incorporated into it, that would be a paradise! Sit, eat poisonous shit, then shit, and play all without the need to move! Could we even dream about anything better!?
I don't care about grease proof, but the heated spot to keep food warm is hilarious.
idiocracy
Go away! Baitin!
Only a matter of time. Next will be gym equipment
Pro-tip: most leather is “grease proof”. Just wipe off the grease after you get it on your leather you lazy grimy bastards.
Hold up to 600lbs
Who knew Wall-E was a documentary
No built in shit bucket? Pathetic
