A couple days ago we saw what happens when you combine a questionable company name with an equally questionable web page design. Today we will examine what happens when you don’t proof your section banner:
This is so obvious, I have to wonder if it was done on purpose so that people like me would go, “OMG! These guys are browsing porn while working on the Divine mother icon!”
Here’s the link to the actual web page. What do you think? Is it a mistake or is it a marketing ploy?
There are a lot of new and questionable drugs being marketed at us every day. The TV commercials are ridiculous, because even if you can figure out what the hell the drug is supposed to do for you, you’ll have second thoughts after being bombarded with the laundry list of side effects.
But what if the side effects were better than the drug itself? Let’s take a look:
Picking a name for your business is something that requires serious thought. I mean, you don’t want to pick a name that is going to be misinterpreted in a negative light. And even if you screw that up, you want to make sure that your questionable company name is distanced as far as possible from anything associated with said negative connotation.
Well, these guys didn’t do that:
Please tell me I’m not the only one who sees the problem here.
I received a strange envelope in the mail today. It was unaddressed and it read, “Find your partner inside!!!”.
I knew the envelope wasn’t intended for me since I didn’t have a partner. But then I started thinking, what kind of partner could fit into an envelope? It seemed rather ridiculous to me that you could open an envelope and expect your partner to fall out. Sure, maybe you could pull that off with wormholes, but I don’t think our scientists have quite mastered the nature of wormholes yet, let alone finding a partner to shove into one.
Then I started thinking… maybe it was like Sea-Monkeys. Sea-Monkeys and astronaut ice-cream. They both require water to be added and both contain hyphens, so I figured I was onto something. I was also a bit hungry.
Unfortunately, adding water to the envelope only resulted in a small puddle and a bit of papier-mâché. I decided to make the best of the situation and formed the papier-mâché into a little person and stuck it in my neighbour’s mailbox.
Friends, it has been brought to my attention that the U.S. government is apparently doing *something* to their water supply and their air supply. I have been directed to video evidence of a phenomenon that inarguably confirms this. The commentary you are about to hear makes the facts absolutely clear:
Warning: The following video contains excessive amounts of douchebaggery. It is strongly recommended that helmets be worn (the more the better) while viewing this video. Fanrastic.com will not be held liable for any loss of IQ points.
The bulletin board at the Second Cup near my office is always overflowing with offers of new age nonsense. So naturally when I saw this partially obscured flyer poking out, I lumped it in with the rest of the holistic hubbub:
But something nagged at me to peel back the layers of junk that were covering the other half of this posting. What I discovered confounded me:
Um, okay… What? When did photography become gender-specific? Are some women uncomfortable handling the long, hard shaft of a telephoto lens? And what the hell is with the workshop themes? They sound like the steps I go through when I take a shit.
When it comes to restaurants, appearance is very important. You need to present your diner in a manner which conveys a sense of cleanliness, among other things. This principle applies even before you open your doors for business. With that in mind, let’s take a look at a yet-to-be-opened restaurant that completely fails in this department:
Say, what are all those little dots on the sign? They don’t seem to fit, do they? Let’s take a closer look, shall we?
Why, it’s a variety of insects! How appetizing. The good news: apparently they still have an opening for the position of exterminator, so get your resumes in quick!
