I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
Dr.Uneasy - right on.
Congrats to Pitchfork Media who made it into the New York Times with this story. ;)
Alec Bourgeois, a Dischord employee, said Minor Threat and Dischord were still considering their legal options."We got inundated with e-mails saying 'Sue Nike,' " he said. "We're flattered by the outrage. I don't think Nike understood that people care so much about this ethos."
That was published July 4, that is after the Nike apology.
Lets not forget my fave, the 7up parody version (2002) either. ;)
Well, yeah, it would be devilishly clever.. ;)
Though Coco Rocks aren't the only ones to have chosen unfortunate names, if it's any conciliation.
Some examples of names that makes anglo-speakers giggle, the Poo Tofu-stick, the Cok hotels Amsterdam (now wisely using their owners name, Ramada), Pocari Sweat, and of course my all time favorite winegums as depicted on my desk right now: Spunk! (also available as a sweet scnapps!)
Hmmmm... Perhaps this is all planned - the "crack made with chocolate pudding" does sound a bit odd doesn't it? ;)
This post has attracted the attention of Tequila, the TBWA toy that boasts they invented "DISRUPTON" a methodology whereby they provide their clients with ideas and actions that break the mould.
Anyway, people from the super secret Tequila Hacienda are hitting the front page right now so they are talking about something around here, and since Coco Rocks is their client, it might just be this post. ;)
Cute... But nothing tops the creepyness of Burger King vs Darth Vader heavy breathing duel. The stuff of nightmares. Yup.
Oooh, well see that might be a good thing that it fell through actually. From my p.ov. anyway, I have a knack of being in countries where I might not know the language too well, and surfing the web - if the website changes to French to accommodate me it really doesn't work since I don't speak it.
(and I always did wonder how that sort of thing deals with Switzerland... Does it ask only in that case or does it check the computers main language? The latter would make sense for everyone.)
