I think if I lived in that dorm I would put up a big "F YOU" sign in my window for the month that ad was up. It's a funny concept and would be one thing done in PhotoShop for a print or web ad. But to physically have that around my dorm window for a month? Gross. I presume these women had no say in whether they were going to be part of a campaign like this.
This is the same company that sells a trompe l'oeil kitten-in-your-bib-overalls-pocket t-shirt and they're gonna take offense when people mock their shirts?
I just don't understand how the low pants thing even works. Are the pants somehow attached to the bottom hem of the underwear? Is there glue involved? It's most confusing on skinny guys with no butts to hold anything up... why do they not fall completely off? Perhaps instead of outlawing it we could ask these younguns to explain the physics of it, coefficient of friction, static electricity, ionic bonds, whatever.
The truly shocking thing is the clothes shaver. That looks like a man's hand operating it, due to the lack of otherwise obligatory red nail polish. Who on earth ever thought a MAN could do something around the house? Crazy!
Actually MBARI is having a symposium in late March to discuss things like drawing scientific conclusions from video footage and other imaging technologies like this, "capturing" the biology of organisms which can't be observed in the lab. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but is it as good as a specimen?
When I was in England I was happily amazed by the variety and quality of take-away packaged sandwiches. They're everywhere, the fillings are interesting, fresh, and delicious and they're packaged well enough to stuff in your bag for eating later. And not expensive. Really great and practical fast food.
Aw, that made me smile. I liked seeing people get more interested and curious as they passed the little signs. Most folks are cool with a little whimsy in their day.
I would also buy this if it was available as a product. Comments on the site say how someone else already thought of it yadda yadda. OK, so as art maybe it's not 100% original. As a product available in a store it would still be way cool.
Thrifty Foods, a nice local grocery chain in British Columbia, has been putting their cute happy face logo on some of their apples this way for a few years.
Ack, they've bred the brains right out of that dog. I'm sure it's a sweet little critter with a happy life and people who love it, but... there's still an ick factor somehow. Deep down it probably still thinks it's a big bad wolf, but has the problem solving ability of a mushroom.
Right on. I wish this would catch on. We've had several cases here of folks renting houses where the "owner" stops making the mortgage payments but keeps on cashing those rent checks and never even tells the tenants anything is wrong. If the house were sold out from under the tenants they'd get some kind of notice. But in these cases, nope, it's the sheriff.
I can't even imagine what chemicals that plastic must be treated with to keep PB from sticking to it. I wouldn't want something like that touching my food, frankly. The ONLY use I can see for this would be if you were packing picnic stuff to bring on a plane where they wouldn't let you have a knife.
I see, so women are supposed to suppress our natural instincts because obviously men shouldn't have to do anything that puts them out of their comfort zone. Or, to put it differently, we're supposed to stop behaving like women and start behaving like men. Soo... a man will be happier in a relationship with... another man?
