They really need to just redesign the pods to look as industrial and non-imvitimg as possible so people will shut the gently caress up about them already.

Screaming Idiot posted:The Tide pods looking like delicious fruit candy is its biggest selling point -- it's actively poking at our primate brains to acquire the delicious shiny fruit, even if it's not edible. Maybe a bleach manufacturing company should be more responsible as to not design a product that looks delicious fruit candy. Just a crazy thought. Maybe when designing their products they should steer far away from doing things to make it look desirable to eat. I'm just spitballing here.

The only time male centric advertising worked for me was for some Men's lotion. My hands get really dry during the winter, but I can't stand using lotion because they always leave my hands feeling greasy and since I'm constantly touching gadgets or poo poo that I don't want greasely or dirty. So I saw one commercial pretty much advertised as exactly that. I don't remember the brand. But maybe the marketing didn't work because the next time I went shopping I looked for it and a bottle was freaking $10 when the regular lotions were going for $4.

Krispy Wafer posted:I don't know if it's still the case, but Hulu's ad system was so stupid. Like an episode starts and then you immediately have a commercial before you can even get interested in the show and then 15 minutes later you have an ad block so long you might as well go take a dump while you're waiting. It seemed geared solely to annoy rather than sell a product and wasn't at all tuned to what they were watching. Like do we really need as many ads during the Rockford Files, which is a 40 year old show that probably costs nothing to stream as we do for Hulu's tentpole original productions? Hulu got rid of The Rockford Files. Literally while I was in the middle of an episode.

Paladin posted:Which episode was it? I don't remember. Somewhere in the third season. Funny enough, that was the first show I watched on Hulu, back when they only had the free service. It had been years later and I couldn't think of anything else to watch, so I decided to rewatch Rockford Files. Great show. They'll probably reboot it sometime soon. I could see John Hamm doing a good job of it.

I've never had Popeye's before. The hype on that chicken sandwich died down so I stopped by one on a whim last week while driving somewhere to try one. Their menu said it wasn't available. So I left. It's apparently coming back as a permanent menu item this Sunday. That's my Popeye's story. They're not too common in Arizona. We have a lot of Raising Caine's and they're pretty good. There's a Monroe's Hot Chicken a walk away from where I work but tomorrow is my last day so I probably won't be going there for a long time. That place is pricey but amazing.

Phanatic posted:A goddamned White Castle opened up in Scottsdale and the lines are hours long. I find that stupidly outrageous and definitely won't be going there anytime soon. I feel blessed that I have three In N Outs within fifteen minutes of me. In N Out fries aren't worth waiting hours for, but I never feel sick after eating them like McDonald's or something.

I got targeted Wish ads for toilet paper. I've never searched for toilet paper online or anything like that. Maybe memes? I've also been getting targeted ads from PureFlix, the Christian movie company on my Gmail account. I have no idea why either.

I'm kinda shocked to hear about growler refills because I keep seeing signs at Starbucks and Circle K saying they're not letting people bring their own cups for the time being. I've never owned a growler before. Do staff at liquor stores sterilize them before filling them?

It seems like the more advertising a company does about how much their employees love the company, the higher the odds that they are treating their employees like absolute poo poo.
