I don't give a gently caress if someone wants to become a dude/chick. I just can't stand it when the response to that is "THEY'RE NOT BECOMING ANYTHING THEY ALWAYS WERE SHITLORD"

I have found someone on these forums who is thinking of joining the military, and they already have made a good choice to not go down the nuke pipe line in the navy.

But I started talking about all the poo poo I had to steal or lie about in the military and now they are wondering what else has been done.

I remember awhile ago I read a story of some pilots in WWII who stole entire engines for their fighters from another part of a base but I can't find that story.

I once stole a 50 gallon drum of engine oil by signing it out as Mickey Mouse because there was no way in gently caress I was gonna cart all those quart tins for a whole company of tanks. Mechanics appreciated having the drum, but apparently someone flipped their poo poo because only E7 and above could sign out any more than 3 quarts after that.

Sorry, 2-9 people, for making poo poo a bit worse. In my defence it was only a bit worse, and there was so much more dumber poo poo than that going on.

They're working on being able to change the gender listed on birth certificates. You'll never be safe unless you just accept that "unexpected package." Just like on a WESTPAC

So on topics that aren't related to giving some deployed Marine's kid a mushroom bruise in the soft spot...

Is it me or is Tanqueray marketed to black people? Like, I see Tanqueray billboards and it's always black people on them and the other day when I bought a handle (which I'm def. enjoying) the black clerk said "nice choice." So is it a specific marketing choice or do they do really localized marketing and I just have been living in majority black neighborhoods?

I can answer this. First, what you're describing isn't marketing -- that's generally pitching a price or a deal. Tanqueray approached an ad agency asking for work to bolster sales/awareness/etc to a black demographic. The work then goes out out to a media agency who places it in specific areas, so yes, it is targeted by town, region, state, etc.

You very well may live in an area where there's a high population of black people, or simply just a region. It could also be a national campaign. The work also doubles for other audiences as well. I guarantee you there's a white person somewhere in the ad. Agencies will shoehorn a white guy in a black-targeted ad as a means to give white audiences "permission to buy."

That's a no poo poo real tactic. You'll very rarely see only one ethnic group in an ad, and only if the ad is extremely targeted towards that demographic.

I mean yeah, I have generally lived in majority black areas. I just haven't seen Tanqueray ads outside those areas so i wasn't sure what was going on.

Companies don't spend on advertising year round. Well unless you're Coca-Cola or Apple. Tanqueray could be opting for seasonal advertising based on knowledge that their product tends to be popular in the summer, so they can easily push it around this time of year.

edit: another advertising psychology fact is black people tend not to buy products that only advertise with only black people. Another reason why a white dude will be somewhere in the ad. It's a sign of quality i.e. if a white dude is seen using this obviously it's not a lovely product destined only for black people.

The only gin my grocery store carries is Tanqueray. I don't see many white people shopping there.

The only instances of Tanqueray being mentioned in media that I can remember are from the lyrics to "Gin & Juice" and these commercials starring a foppish black fella from way back whenever:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRJQRLkHlUY


In summary: Tanqueray = black people.

Why spend $50 on a handle of Tanqueray when a 100oz bottle of Pine-Sol costs $7 and tastes the same.
