He should change the description from "hard sell" to "hard on the eyes."

Give him a break. He's a copywriter, not a designer. Come on! Although, I'm sure there are plenty of used car salesmen who would love for him to put cats wearing helmets riding on skateboards through explosions on their website.

Are websites like that supposed to carry a warning for epileptics?

Yeah, it's hilarious but photosensitive epileptics should beware before fiddling with the slider at the bottom.

He could have left off that last one ("hardest sale") and avoided the issue, but I think most people aren't aware of the issue.

Perfect example of a clever functional component to convey your business / sell yourself. One usability note: I would turn 'less / more hard sell' either side of the slider into links that move it forward/back as keeping my mouse pressed down on the slider reading through all the options was a little cumbersome.

You can also use arrow keys to progress the slider one step at a time.
