Marketing Gimmicks

So,  what can the marketing guru's come up that we haven't heard already?

What have you heard that either the gimmick roped you in or you couldn't believe how stupid it is or
sounds?

2 of them that stick out right now are:

LIMITED...The car companies use this one alot! (Best fake car salesman's deep voice)..."Come on
down! We have these great 4x4 LIMITED EDITITON  trucks in stock and ready to go..hurry, they won't last long!".

Things or Sayings that Don't Make Sense!

- One thing that is said that makes no sense:

KILL IT 'TIL IT'S DEAD!

- How about this:

I THINK SHE IS KINDA PREGNANT

Hmmmmm......let's think about this one, shall we? Either she IS or she ISN'T!

- One item that a woman cannot explain why it is called what it is called:

POCKET BOOK!
(uh...it's not a book, AND it cannot fit in your pocket!)

Chrome Makes Me Look Fat

Yes, chrome makes me look fat...yeah, I sound like a woman..I know..but hey...

I was sitting at a local ice cream shoppe, enjoying a peach and snickers  ice cream cone..(2 separate scoops..), and this GMC truck pulls up in front of me...it had chrome on it's bumper. I was impressed with the truck..until....my glance went to it's front bumper and the chrome that was all around it....

Then..I saw my reflection.

The closer it got...

The fatter I got.

Lebron - Le-Traitor?

Being a former Clevelander.. I feel like I have been scorned again. I was born in 1969 and have suffered through..the following horrors:

10 cent beer night (if it was up to me I would have served Guinness (but then again it wouldn’t have been “genius”..and I was only 3 years old.);“Red Right 88”; “The Drive”; “The Fumble”; “The Shot”; “Art Modell taking the Browns”; “Tim Couch”; “Manny being Manny”; Jim Thome leaving, Butch Davis and now? Lebron Le-Leaving? Or should I say…Le-turning his back on a city and Le-$crewing it? We should have known it was coming. So, should we be Le-$urprised? Not really. Do you remember when he, Bosh and Wade restructured their contracts the same time to become free agents? He gave up on the team about 3 years ago. I have to say that he is an egotistical child. Yes, his physical talents warrant to be compensated especially if he knows nothing else but basketball, meaning that that is how he makes a living and supports his family.

Should we really consider him a traitor? No, not really...since his allegiance was never with Cleveland. It was with NY Yankees and OTHER TEAMS! Did you ever see him wear a local team's jersey or other apparel? NOPE!

So, I consider him a man child just passing through Cleveland for grass that is greener (or in this case…”orange”) …all year around...and he said he was loyal...he was only loyal to green..not wine and gold....green to St.Vincent/St. Mary's green uniform and to the greedy green of money.

That's my 2 cents..and frankly that is all Cleveland and it's fans feel like.

So, in closing this Le-LeLo$ing chapter of Cleveland sports history, I have to say, that the black cloud will pass and the sun will shine again through the smog..and us Cleveland sports fans may think it is time to bring back 10 cent (Guinness) beer nights…it will help us forget. And THAT would be genius!!!!

Microsoft Commercial

Couch Potato wrote:

There is a commercial for Coca-Cola that is running during the NFL Playoffs. The question is asked: "How important is getting the right information vs. getting a lot of data and sorting through it?". Well now. We all know what her answer is, but I wonder if she was thinking..."What the hell kind of question is that? You stupid moron, of COURSE you want the right information!" I have to say she handled it really well. If you are going to make a believable commercial, isn't it important to make it plausible ...<< MORE >>

People Driving With Dogs In Their Laps

How stupid, dumb and irresponsible is it that some people drive with their dogs in their laps? I saw a guy the other day with his dog in his lap, and almost hit another guy while he was pulling into a parking lot. Imagine if he would have hit him. Is there a line in the police report for "Dog's in Laps?" BE SAFE AND RESPONSIBLE! STOP DRIVING WITH YOUR PETS IN YOUR LAPS! ...<< MORE >>

Jokes

A woman and her little girl were visiting the grave of the little girl's grandmother. On their way through the cemetery back to the car, the little girl asked, "Mommy, do they ever bury two people in the same grave?" 

"Of course not, dear." replied the mother, "Why would you think that?" 

"The tombstone back there said, 'Here lies a lawyer and an honest man.'"

RUBBER GLOVES AND MEAT HANDLING

Did you ever go to a deli part of a store, get your order and wonder where those rubber gloves have been? I saw a person come out the meat department after cutting meat and handling the meat packages! Now I know why people walk around with those little bottles of hand cleaners!
