My name is Travis Broyles and I will do whatever* you want me to do for less money than whoever you are paying to do it now.
Below is a list of just some of the things I can do. I do want to stress that I DO ANYTHING so email me if your requested service is not listed here.

Stare at you for 5 minutes
Give a hug to the person of your choosing
Call you on the phone and seem genuinely interested for 10 minutes

Things I Will Do For $50:
Break-up with your boyfriend or girlfriend
Help you quit smoking (I'll call you every day for a month and yell "HEY DON'T SMOKE")
Tell the person you like that you think they're cute and what if you had sex together?

*Prices and tasks are subject to negotiation. I will not murder or steal or perform a legendary murdersteal. No rapes, and the sex has to be unrelated to the payment, like "Oh, after you're done cutting those trees down, do you want some lemonade?" but the lemonade means sex, mostly.
Young creatives are known for pulling stunts like this to get noticed. This one is pretty good, because he kept it clever and (mostly) clean, despite being on a free-for-all medium. The flippant (and unnecessary) addition of "no rapes" rubbed me the wrong way, though.
Not sure I'd be willing to hire Travis for six figures — and nine months of paid vacation — for this, but still a nice effort.
Screencaps below:
Update: Looks like Agency Spy picked up this story from CL too.
Fabulous post. I, too, had a problem with the flippant "rape" comment. But this stunt shows a lot of spunk and creativity. Would I hire him for this? Nahhhh. But I might get him to write me a theme song.
