June 24, 2009 by Geeks are Sexy | 12 comments
O.M.G.I.G.P. stands for “Oh My God I’m Gonna Puke.” Some of you will think that this acronym should be used as an Anti-IE acronym, but in the case of the following video, no, it’s to promote IE8’s new InPrivate mode. Warning: Video is a bit gross.
Oh, and before anyone mentions it, yeah, we know, Chrome already had this feature way before IE8 was even out!

lol the first thing i thought with the acronym was “i gotta pee” XD
First thing I did was run off and register omgigp.com!!
What was this ‘commercial’ made for?
I would be surprised if someone who can read lips didn’t immediately go out and register the URl that Dean Cain said during the BEEEEEEEEEEEEEP between hairy and .com
O.M.G.I.G.P. very estrange commercial, but wast funny…
Wow what a horrible ad….I wouldn’t have aired that on like the INTERNET, let alone TV.
It seems MS is getting a bit crazy with their new guerrilla marketing team.
Microsoft made this seriously? That’s probably the worst commercial I’ve ever seen. Worse than Seinfeld.
http://omgigp.com/ says Server Not Found Error 404 right now. So ridiculous.

Wow, Superman in widescreen, must be all that rich living!
Seriously, of the ones on the site, this is the one they really could’ve done without. The other ones are actually a little funny. Even if the nugget of funniness is mentioning how lame Dean Cain is now.
I’m not a big fan of MS, like not a fan at all… (ok, maybe Xbox’s cool) But this is Very funny! Nice work.
Safari had that feature first. This ad looks like it’s saying IE8 will make you puke.
