How not to reproduce

How to confuse your target audience



So I love ads that make no sense whatsoever. Case in point, here's a lovely example I just encountered online. Do you know your credit score? Well, I don't but this seems to only be targeted toward gummi bears. Are you a gummi bear with bad credit? No big deal! See, the gummi bear with excellent credit has the same smile on his face as the gummi bear with the bad credit. So why advertise? Obviously these bears could care less if they're up to their gummi asses in debt.

Brad's comment after reading this "Laughed so hard I almost relaxed myself."

How to find hell on earth.

It's on ebay!

How to write a retarded letter.

So I found this awesome site that takes what you write and makes it "unintelligent." Check it out, here is my normal letter to Wally:

Dear Wally,
How are you? Man, today was a busy day. Fortunately I get to leave a little early because my groceries are being delivered. Anyway, how was your day? I wish I was asleep right now instead of staring at this stupid computer. Catch you later!

How to live in Maryland: Part 2

I did an experiment and looked up the weather at the same time I did yesterday. The forecast has changed dramatically! Which means anything is possible. Yesterday's prediction of today is dead on but Saturday....what the heck happened to Saturday's forecast! I'm scared. Hold me.
