Bravo Yahoo! TV for putting the 'F' in OMFG

You’re advertising segment gets a standing ovation from me for putting the ‘F’ in OMFG. Yes, if you don’t know what OMFG stands for and I don’t yet know if Yahoo! TV does or not, it stands for “Oh My Fucking God”. Well, sprawled all over Yahoo! TV features the Gossip Girl ad shown to the right and variations thereof featuring two people kissing with the single word “OMFG” in big caps on it. There’s also a banner across the top. It looks juvenille, almost fan-art-esque. And this web designer thoroughly approves. Keep reading for screenshots.

Now not only does a full screen advertising campaign, that apparently has become all the rage lately, turn a decent design that was Yahoo! TV into a well… a slut but it gets the attention for anyone who knows what those letters mean. Maybe the reason they didn’t use the full meaning instead of the abbreviation was that it would have cost too much. lol. I love the internet.
