New Health Tracker
The setup
The funny people
Meet the cast. 1
Say it with us
Highly quotable.
Just raw, sometimes offensive, data.
No apps, no screens, just a dude with a nasty mouth and a whole lot of free time.
My Corner Guy is brash, but totally harmless.
The premise
Here’s the bit.
A cheerful spokesman pitches My Corner Guy, a health-tracking service with no hacking risk because it is just a man on your street corner commenting, crudely and without being asked, on your weight, shape and habits. Satisfied customers describe how his insults pushed them into the gym, Pilates and even a period-tracking warning, while the ad admits nobody knows whether he is homeless and warns buyers never to give him their phone number.

My poor guy is trained to hang out near your house and assess your weight, shape, and overall appearance. And there's no risk of hacking or big tech oversight. Just raw, sometimes offensive, data.

Now, you may be wondering, is my corner guy homeless? To be honest, we don't know. But his sneakers are clean and he owns a Beats pill that's always charged and fully functional. My corner guy can also keep track of your menstrual cycle somehow.
