Everybody gather around a watch this piece of advertising ingenuity. The US military has again hit a low point in finding sturdy young lads, and after a brief success with the America's Army game, who is played by everyone I know from my retired Asian uncle to my retired Asian uncle's friends, it's a disappointment.

Now the army is recruiting people who are playing games that like to talk back to them, almost in a Romanesque kind of way, like "You look like you're really into this", and "You ready for a real challenge?" , then finally asking in at the end of the spot, "Are you ready to take this to the next level?"

Unfortunately for the US Army, this is when most people decide that they are being too pushy and start asking if they can "just be friends". Kim Phu
