viral advertising 

(Also known as viral marketing). Releasing a video or other creation in hopes that it will be widely forwarded and be beneficial for a product or service referenced in the creation. If the creation seems amateurish even though it was created by professionals paid by the organization that benefits from being referenced, the effort is known as "subviral".

A cartoon showing three bathroom stalls with balloons of the expressions "Butt", "Wipe", and "Errr" should be suspected of being viral marketing for Anhaeuser Busch.

Wii-ral Advertising

A smart move made by a marketer in order to associate the wii with normal everyday teen life.

To make such a word, you first have to take something which relates to teens, say... you use the word "reflexes" for instance. Then you take said word and redefine it into "wii-flexes" and of course you write something positive about the word aswell like "Ungodly reflexes possessed by a wii-player" and there you go!

Now you have a new and kewl word which is likely to be picked up for a bit by all the players of the wii console and redistributed since it's now a fad. Also, you now also have a free advertising channel in the urbandictionary aswell.

dude1: what the hell are all these idiotic "wii" words for?
dude2: I dunno, beats me.

*marketer2 from the word wii-kend strolls by*

Marketer2: Hello, this is a Wii-lly FANTASTIC day guys! take a Wii stroll out and enjoy the sunshine, it's Wii-kked!

*both dudes look at him like he's crazy*

Marketer2: whaat? you don't like my wii-ral advertising campaign? it's the best! and FREE!

*both dude1 and dude2 simultaneously pull out guns and shoot the moronic marketer2 dead on the spot*

Dude1: yeah, so.. uhm, wanna play some Wii at my place?
Dude2: sure, but please don't use any more stupid Wii words alright?

This guy: Woah are those 32Cs?

Me: You wish! That's false advertising

shameless advertising 

Advertising a product because they have genuine interest in it rather than being some spambot or payed worker who doesn't actually give a shit.

Bob: Hey! This new program is great, I love it and you should download it.
Steve: spambot gtfo
Bob: I'm serious, I actually use it and it's not crap!
Steve: Holy shit, it wasn't crap! Thanks for the shameless advertising

false advertising 

A classic move to get a girl to go out with a guy. The guy ask the girl to go out with him and friends they both know (who are in on the scam). Last minute the 'extra' friends say they cannot go, leaving the pair alone.

I used the false advertising trick to get her to go out with me.

false advertising 

When someone's Myspace pictures are way hotter than they are.

Guy #1: *looking at a girl's Myspace profile* Damn, she's fine!
Guy #2: Sorry mate, that's just some false advertising.
