Seriously, someone got paid millions of dollars to do this?

Marketing can have some pretty weird folks involved, but this reads more to me as, "poo poo, all we did was make a cool swoopy logo but now we have to justify getting paid a buttload of money for it, better throw some documentation together with a bunch of elaborate bullshit."

I ordered Pizza Hut last night and noticed that their menu is now pretty dramatically overhauled, and they're calling it "The Flavor Of Now." You have to make decisions on like five or six different variables now before you can order your drat pizza. Pretzel crust? Sriracha jizzed all over the top of your pizza? Just give me a plain-rear end pizza, you weirdos.

Here's some of the new stuff if you haven't seen it.

Also noteworthy is the "Flavor Pioneers" section, featuring the "Official IJustine Pizza" and the "Official Rooster Teeth Podcast Pizza." :psyduck:

I could understand getting an imperialist interpretation from an American crew going to a foreign nation and "imposing" their culture on the locals, but it's not the Opium Wars or anything, it's just asking people to try a burger.

But Snopes.com says the Coke story is PARTLY TRUE! Is Snopes still treated as a reliable source? Was it ever? I dunno! I'm a huge piece of poo poo!

Right is "Hot", Left is "Not", so I'd imagine they would swipe right for their own ilk.

With the crap those shows tell the viewer computers can do the things might as well be wearing goddamned wizard hats and waving wands and going "TADAAAA!" while the criminal just appears right in front of them.

Even if it's just children's restaurants, how do parents not cringe and feel uncomfortable and awkward the whole time?

They don't. They cringe and feel uncomfortable and awkward the whole time.

I don't think many kids enjoy it, either. I've definitely seen a child burst into tears from all the attention on more than one occasion. :(

If it was deliberate it'd have some awesome fonts and maybe an ironically self aware mascot that could become viral. It would almost certainly not have that much white space.

If you want blatant viral bait, why not try the Squatty Potty ad?

I mean it's definitely going to get millions of views, and delivering that product's information in any other way probably wouldn't move nearly as many units (not a pun), but... I dunno. I don't like it.

I keep seeing this YouTube ad for a poo poo anime game called Sword of Chaos. They blurred out the cleavage of all the ladies so it looks like everyone is fighting with their tits hanging out :pwn:

Can't link it because the non-ad trailer doesn't have the censoring. It got me to not immediately skip the ad, so... good job?

"I just watch it for the ads" is a common phrase, usually used by people to display how much they don't like football.
