You put the balls in the top, they come OUT of the mouth, the song is very clear on this.

the flavours look pretty good, and the sachets are fine, but the stupid faces are stupid, and it's almost certainly overpriced.

Literally everything everyone is saying, good and bad, about millennials is exactly the same poo poo that everyone said about gen x'ers in the 90s.

I don't think they're a different kind of person, but the idea of this generation being particularly media savvy and thus harder to "trick" is probably at least somewhat true.

You don't advertise nursing homes to the people that will be living in them. You advertise them to their kids.

yeah, but not their grandkids. Top 40 listeners are like nineteen, their parents won't need nursing care for decades. You wanna hit closer to 40-65 year olds, who will have 60-95 year old parents

split the difference, no charger in the box but you can get one for free when you buy the handheld if you need one. Done.

I can't find the link but the lawsuit between Gaiman and McFarland has the judge saying "kick-rear end warrior angels" in it.

oh man, someone linked that entire deposition in one of the comic threads or something, it's like 60 pages but the whole thing is MASSIVE pro-click.

It's less "dumb moves in marketing" more "dumb fucks thinking they can run a company on high fives and promises" without ever getting anything down on paper or getting actual grownups involved (not that these were kids, just acting like it). Both sides come off as a bit unprofessional but I'd say Gaiman ends up about 90% in the right, especially as it's the company (ie image and McFarlane) that has the obligation to act like a real company and not gently caress over their freelancers.

I do like how they keep trying to 'rebrand' and set the tone, missing the point that people dislike them because of their business model, not in how they tell the story of that model. Have whales = bad is what they are fighting against but nope let's keep trying to PR our way out of the wasteland that is our image.

How could Seaworld get out of the pit that is their image? Would basically completely rebranding, getting in new management (or pretending to), getting rid of the orcas and admitting that keeping Orcas in captivity is a bad move and funding rehabilitation-and-release do them any good, or would it make them look even worse? Can they survive without the Orca shows and the money it brings in from people who don't know/care about the issues?
