Next stop...The Apprentice!

A task on which team can make the most bitcoin by posting their referral links all over the forums.

Haha, that'd actually be a good task. I love The Apprentice and the twats on there. I wonder when the next series is?

Yeah it's always good viewing. Not sure when the next one is. I always love the introductions they give themselves right before making themselves look like idiots. 'I'm the alpha and the omega, I'm a lion and the next Apprentice'. Yeah...but do you own Bitcoin?  Tongue

Why aim for the sky when there's footprints on the moon? Why aim for the moon when there's a rover on Mars? Yeah, they're classic arrogant megalomaniacs, but you've got to be a twat/'character' to even get on there.

Series 10 has been pushed back till autumn because of the World Cup apparently. http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/apprentice-next-series-pushed-back-2652853

Haha, very true. Ah I see, I think the 'Kids Apprentice' or whatever it's called got cancelled too. Sugar was tweeting his annoyance about it.

Miniature tyrants in the making. Those little gobshites are even worse because they're just as arrogant as the pricks who are ten years older than them on the adult apprentice. Imagine what levels of douchebaggery they're going to be at in the future.

Yeah exactly! I honestly don't know how some people can be that full of themselves!

Saw this advert on youtube and reminded me of this thread: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKKfHm-RMVA

I think bitcoins would gain more publicity if they were featured in a popular talk show, like in The Ellen DeGeneres Show for example. Maybe that would happen in the near future, who knows, right? And being featured in a talk show is more beneficial, because it also explains to people what bitcoins are about and how can they use them as compared to just being the subject in a scripted tv show.

I think we're a long way off daily talkshows, but that would be good exposure. Not sure how interested Ellen or her audience would be. Best bet would be to get a celeb on there who is involved or invested with/in Bitcoin like Ashton Kutcher etc.
