It never ceases to amaze me just how stupid people are. I mean, besides me and you. When Nintendo kicked off a little viral marketing campaign for Metroid Prime 2 by placing a fake ad for a bounty hunter on Monster.com more than 90 people applied for the position. And I don t mean people screwing around, I mean 90 honest to God bounty hunters. The ad was obviously a fake, requiring that candidates have experience operating in subterranean, low-oxygen, zero-gravity environments. Many of the applicants were of the highly armed, not so highly intelligent variety.

Within the first day of posting the job, we had several replies from real applicants who seriously wanted to be an intergalactic bounty hunter for a living. The skills and experience these people listed went beyond surprising into the realm of frightening.
