The whole marketing plan behind the Superdry brand of clothing is literally "...it's got some japanese words on it"

And it's selling like loving hotcakes.

Exploration is ill-advised.
The thing about marketing is that it can absolutely be just stupid enough to work.

I thought it was sort of decent quality, nothing crazy. Then I looked a bit more and realized they don't even have quality nor fair trade cred to back up their prices. It's lovely fast fashion with a faux-Japanese marketing campaign.

When you get outcompeted on quality, organic cotton and ethics by a silly grindcore band shirt, you should just close your brand completely.

Hamill had a clause in his contract for the original movies which entitles him to one of every piece of Star Wars licensed merchandise in perpetuity. I believe he has a warehouse somewhere.

I did a similar thing with my dog once. I had a some of her favourite treats which she would go crazy for and hid one piece in one hand, had the other hand empty and put both hands in front of her, fists closed. She tapped one and I opened it. If the treat wasn't in that hand she would tap the other which had it. I did it a couple of times until the treats ran out. Then I thought I would tease her and put both my closed fist forward without any treat in any of them. She tapped the first hand, I opened it and no treat. She tapped the second one and I opened that too, no treat.

She then looked at both of the open empty hands, realized I hadn't put a treat in any of them and bit my hand. Kinda feel like I deserved that one.

I like these :( They have a nice ginger smell. But for some reason ads in America always have to try and be hardcore about stuff. The Rituals ads in the stores here are usually just a landscape or (for this shaving cream in particular) like a Japanese sliding door with a wall scroll or something
