Nothing really, but it shone a huge loving spotlight on it, and brought it back to people's attention.

Not a large as other things in the thread, but 15 years or so a small local pet shop was going out of business and put up a said that said "Hamsters On Clearance". They were on clearance for almost an entire school year. Never went in there and it closed, but laugh about it every time I drive past it.

LaCroix CEO says running company is like “caring for someone who becomes handicapped”

The full text of the press release is so bizarre that it kind of tempers the insensitivity of that statement -- it's like "oh, okay, he's just insane." I had no idea the CEO of LaCroix (or its parent company, whatever) was prone to Dr. Bronner-esque rants.

The funniest thing to me about all this is that I have no clue what beverages LaCroix makes. The only product I know the brand for is... bleach.

To my understanding they make sparkling water that's very subtly flavored.

The Walmart brand “Great Value” sparkling water with fruit flavours is way better. That’s not a joke, I inhale that poo poo when I can get it. The best are Black Cherry, Strawberry Kiwi, and Fuji Apple.

They all actually taste of the poo poo they’re named after and don’t have that “lacroix” aftertaste.

I’ll go to bat for the GV flavored waters (I personally like the cherry limeade flavor), and also Dasani’s flavored sparkling waters if you want something with fruit flavor but not also a bunch of sweetness

The Vons/Safeway house brand sparking water is great too. I like peach creme, wild cherry, and pineapple mango.

I think this goes here; it's bizarre.

The New Zealand Tourism Guide discusses NZ cuisine and, curiously, the absence of local Hard Rock Cafes: https://www.tourism.net.nz/new-zealand/nz/cuisine-and-dining

It goes on over three pages! It's just HTML; it'd be trivial to edit or delete old information. Why mention Hard Rock at all? They're just highlighting what they don't have--or worse, what they used to have but don't anymore. :psyduck:

The gift shop stayed open for a year and a half past the restaurant showing nobody really wants to eat a Hard Rock, they just want the T-shirt.

Could be left up just for people searching "hard rock cafe new zealand" on Google and learning that it's not there anymore, and that search could be used for promoting other businesses. Or maybe other SEO reasons-- eg, it's a popular page and removing it wouldn't be as helpful as updating the info on it

I've still never been at a Hard Rock Cafe despite staying in a hotel where the room service was literally Hard Rock Cafe food.

And on my senior trip I wanted to go to the one in Baltimore but I was out voted to eat at Chipotle instead because "a hard Rock Cafe is just a Hard Rock Cafe but a Chipotle is really good food"

I don't think I've even been inside a Hard Rock. I've walked past the one at Universal Orlando a ton but never went inside. I figured it would all be pretty terrible.

Universal really dropped the ball on food for the most part. Disney fills their parks with quality (if somewhat overpriced) options with a lot of variety, but most food at Universal is generic stuff like burgers, pizza, and spaghetti that costs twice as much as it should. Whenever I'm in the parks I usually eat the Harry Potter food simply because it's something different.

Is Chipotle not a national chain? There are at least 2 in the Inner Harbor, and like 5 more in the general radius.

Bradys Ham released the following ad two days ago.

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

it is a very clear parody of arguably the most famous irish rebel song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1R48hHU0Ys

And comes just as it was announced only one british soldier would be charged for the murder of 14 civilians during Bloody Sunday. I'm not sure about dumb but it's certainly very :stare: for an ad about ham

Started in Colorado, then McDonalds pumped it full of cash to go national. It's basically a step above a national fast food chain.
