Worst would be if they bought the gun, shot up the store, and then tried to return it. Even though the Customer Service kid knows it was used they would still have to give him store credit.

Solid chance this is both the first and last time Josh Hawley has cared about Walmart's labor or wages.

Have you seen the video for Yankee & The Brave? God it's great. I haven't watched the new one yet, but it's on my list to catch up on.

Dylan16807 posted:Is there a problem with the game about shooting nazis/hitler while they are also corn flakes? What's wrong with choosing that game? Probably just that without the context of what the game is, it just appears to be a logo with iffy typography and Spongebob in Hitler cosplay, which seems like a bad thing to associate your company with.

I don't think it's that weird to think having a big cute cartoony Hitler right up front is a bit odd. It's pretty obvious what the game actually is, but it feels more like an ad you'd get 15 years ago or something.

Yeah, a cute cartoony Hitler-thing front and center is a bad look, easily misinterpreted. Actual Wolfenstein games, both old and new, don't plaster a picture of Hitler on the box art or storefront page. They feature the protagonist, often in battle against the Nazis.

Eh i dont know you could follow this train of thought to say wolfenstein showing the domineering and powerful villainess is a bad look because it makes nazis look strong. It does just for purposes of establishing a villain.

Memento posted:"Bohemian Like You" by the Dandy Warhols was used in a Mercedes ad. Literally just the first line though. Subaru Australia have used Walk on the Wild Side by Lou Reed in their ads for the past couple of years. It really makes the family themed ads a bit weird.

Snake Maze posted:For the discussion at hand I think it's safe to say Cornflake-Hitler is, at minimum, equally fictionalised as Mechahitler. Hmm that’s fair. I haven’t played the cereal game to compare, and I suppose that’s the disconnect here. If I see an image of Mechahitler, I already know context about Mechahitler. If I see an image of Cerealhitler, it’s just Hitler with uwu characteristics. Don’t use Mechahitler in advertising, folks.

Might just be the times we live in. A few years back if I saw a picture of a video game with a cyborg hitler I could rest assured that I'd be shooting him in the face. Nowadays? I need a few more pictures to be safe.

Mechahitler is also distanced from the game's marketing. I've never even seen him. Where as cornflakehitler is the literal only thing I know about that game. It's more... Hitler-forward, you could say.
