I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
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.)
No worries I didn't think you sounded bitchy, you're right like I said it was rather cryptic. Could've written that a lot better, was in a hurry. ;)
Now, I do hope that their idea travels and that they get to do this to other cities, like Times Square in New York, somewhere in Hong Kong and so on. I'd love to invite them to Stockholm, last time I visited there I was suprised at how many ads and ad-signs are now covering the center of town, and how BIG some of them are, things have changed a lot up there.
