That McDonald's/Wal Mart tweet is confusing to me since Wal Mart has been actively shutting down a ton of their in-store McDonald's locations since the pandemic.

Such a swing and a miss, because honestly, the successful smaller competitors in smartphones and tablets actually are marketed on toughness and reliability. Phones and tablets are real good for mobile data collection, but most of the market leaders are A: real expensive, and B: not exactly built for durability. So there's a big market niche for phones and tablets that can take a beating, especially if they can also tout a decent battery life. Dell would've been in prime position to basically corner that market. But... instead, they did that.

But also the Streak wasn't a rugged tablet, it was a normal tablet/early phablet for rugged manly folk.

Those two key demographics: ska fans and middle-aged men who may be cannibals and/or wife-beaters. I wish this advertising campaign had continued so we could have got an advert where a knockoff Suggs clubs his wife with a leg of pork, then the rest of the family Madness walk into the back of him, knocking her down the stairs.

I want to see some Interbrand violence. Like, I want to see the Buger King account tweet at McDonald's that it has 48 hours to get the gently caress out of Miami or else poo poo is going down and then I want Wendy's to tweet pictures at Jack-in-the-Box clearly threatening the life of the mascot Jack. If we have to see this on social media I want it to be completely unhinged

Obviously, the YUM Brands conglomerate were the victors, and they will subject the citizens of Earth to their cruel whims. Countries that submit to their will get to experience the delights of Taco Bell. Those who resist are forced to consume Long John Silvers.

YeahTubaMike posted:Is it ever NOT cringeworthy when brands interact with each other on Twitter? Eh, if you think of as two bored social media interns (possibly even the same social media intern) loving around it loses a lot of cringe. It's depressing and deeply stupid, but it's not worth the effort to cringe at it.

This is a thing, there've been articles about them.
