They decided the infinite parallax of ad space on the strip wasn't profitable enough, so they built a skyscraper-sized dome out of monitors. They can use it to broadcast ads that are visible from almost every spot in the city.
NTA but most lefitsts hate when money is spent on shit that isn't helping society.
While I agree spending 2.3 billion on a glorified Ad Ball Z is silly there's still much better things to b***h about when it comes to wasteful spending.
It looks fricking stupid and is broadcasting bullshit ads 24/7 in eye-searingly bright colours at such a scale that it's visible across an entire city. It is wasting valuable resources and energy just by existing.
This makes me feel old. Was about to go on a whole shpeal about people only going to record shit on their phones for clicks, because otherwise no one would pay to see the equivalent of a shitty skybox mod IRL
b***h you better not be pushing any kind of meme tribewar on Rick and Morty other than R&M vs Xavier the Renegade Angel. Respect the local culture, b***h.
...
Holy fricking shit. I didn't connect the dots. It was set to Pulp and everything.
Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick got done dirty by society. They should be swimming in money vaults but they never broke out of cult status. Seeing as they don't have any other show they're working on, I assume they're currently teaching.

lmaoing even if it's just because I went to vegas right after it was finished but before the sphere had done much more than started construction.
That’s actually pretty cool. I was worried we were getting another quiet episode dump but they seem to be promoting it. 17 episodes too so we’ll really see it’s potential. I’m excited
Was it really on there or did [as] just impose it on for this ad?
I've seen zero people post a different angle of it. It's just all the "news" sites playing this same ad. And the logo looks too solid anyway. So I'm thinking, nah, they just put their shit on a landscape like they always do.
this tribegayging against rick and morty is moronic because zach is friends with justin roiland and has worked with him several times
Not anymore after that controversy
>friends with justin roiland
Does this matter now?
what the frick is the Las Vegas Sphere

the sphere is worth it just to see so many blue hair Twitter wokies cry about it
Que?

I’m assuming you’re unfamiliar with the term, “cutting off your nose to spite your face.”
What exactly is so wrong about an orb in the middle of the city ?
It wastes valuable budget that could be used to house the homeless, help LGBT+ teens or to make the city more walkeable.
Well it's Adult Swim's money funding this after all; not the city or the state.

I personally have hated every single advertisement I've come across and strongly believe trying to convince people to buy your stuff is a sin
>someone has been reading the international israelite
That looks like ass, holy shit
this was their though process when coming up with this shit, of course it looks like ass
So was Brian his uncle or what?
This makes me feel old. Was about to go on a whole shpeal about people only going to record shit on their phones for clicks, because otherwise no one would pay to see the equivalent of a shitty skybox mod IRL
we are truly in the end times
>Your heart will explode.
It's almost a shame that we are past the point of Atlus milking Persona 4...
ADRIFT IN TENDER
>the rich flashy resort city known for being flashy did something flashy with their tons of money
>bros... western civilization is over...
An emoji isnt even that flashy. Those flat colors probably took minutes to animate.
>AIYEEEEEE A BIG SIGN THIS IS LITERALLY BREAKING MY BRAIN SAVE ME UNCLE TED
If they ever go out of business the sphere should have an animation where it slowly dies over like a week
Vegas needed to do something with all that excess cash.
Reminder that Mr.House is from Generation alpha. He was born in 2020 in the fallout universe.
b***h you better not be pushing any kind of meme tribewar on Rick and Morty other than R&M vs Xavier the Renegade Angel. Respect the local culture, b***h.
The real war should've been Venture Brothers vs Rick and Morty because VB is R&M for adults.
VB did a prom where people turn into hideous bug monsters first.

does Doc even do his oil paintings anymore?
Hopefully his health holds up.
Oil paintings are an awful way to hold your health up. There’s a reason so many oil painters get strokes, look at Frank frazetta
New Smiling Friends episode dialogue leak:
>Charlie: Uh, you know, recently I read a study saying people who identify as left-wing are more-likely to be depressed and unconfident. Maybe you should, like, consider accepting Christianity and Trump into you life, maybe you might smile some more, or something
>Client: Ooh, thank you Smiling Friends!! That sounds like a splendid idea!!
This is going to be such a shitty “prank”
tbh the Brazil episode was a good "prank" episode
i hope it's something like that
>resorts world spends a billion dollars installing a frick huge ad screen over their entire building that you can see from the airplane coming into the airport
>looks like shit
>gets blown the frick out by ORB

You can tell from the capitalization and punctuation cadences that it is merely garbage text.
>not in boston
Good to see they learned their lesson.
Zach made an new orb?!
How much did this publicity cost them?
450,000 a day if Google is correct.
That’s actually pretty cool. I was worried we were getting another quiet episode dump but they seem to be promoting it. 17 episodes too so we’ll really see it’s potential. I’m excited
Is this real and not just an edit for the promo? I'm surprised Adult Swim has the marketing budget for this
It makes me wonder if a hypothetical budget for Learning with Pibby was ever even a problem

I hate that fricking sphere so much. It's like a microcosm of everything I despise about Vegas.
>pibby just got billboards in LA
>smiling friends gets the fricking giant sphere ball
pibby bros, is it over?
Who says it even began
Was it really on there or did [as] just impose it on for this ad?
You can put your own ad there for a couple of thousand dollars, the sphere is bleeding money and won't stay there for much more time
>the vegas ball will be gone eventually
Say it ain't so
It should have been tomar
Imagine if you projected the 'UOOOOHHHHHHHHH...Erotic! TOT' emoji onto it....
