Sponsored Blog Posts.

DUDE
We'd like to write a sponsored blog post for your amazing blog. It'll be on topic and we'll pay you.

KID
Wow, that's great. It'll be on topic?

DUDE
Yes.

KID
What will it be about?

DUDE
Plumbing.

KID
How much do you pay?

DUDE
$0.02 for every third time someone clicks on the fourth link, depending on the time difference between when Google refreshs and the Earth spins on its axis.

KID
I worry that this is selling out.

DUDE
You don't have any readers.

KID
Then why do you want to do a sponsored blog post?

DUDE
We like your blog. We want to help you. That's why we'll pay you.

KID
Can I put at the top of the article, 'This is a sponsored post and I am selling out just for one post, just to make some cash?"

DUDE
No, you can't bad mouth us.

KID
I would never do that. It's not like some bloggers out there who would write a dialogue-based blog post mocking you.

DUDE
I don't think we want to work with you anymore.

Care to share?
