Videos get 600k watches, here are 2 more [Watch] — “Creepy” .Com

If you thought “Fish on a Bus” was weird, wait until you see “Bee in a Bar”.

The prior week Verisign released videos under its fresh marketing campaign “Make Your Idea Internet Official”.

The videos have been described in a number of ways, with “creepy” being one of them. Yeah, “Fish on a Bus” is certainly creepy.

Both videos have soared to 300,000 views on YouTube. I have no idea how Verisign is promoting these videos and if it is buying views. But the comments on them seem authentic…they’re as stupid as most comments on YouTube.

Anyhow, Verisign published a couple more videos in the series. Counting one in which a woman sleeps with a bee. Seriously. They’re worth watching:
