New Coke
I was on a conference call this afternoon when I observed CNN in the corner of my eye. Suspicious packages found all over Boston. My heart sank. That's my town. What dastardly fiend was responsible for this?
Err. As in Err of the Mooninites.
Well, I think publicity was generated. In the most brilliant ad campaign since Crystal Pepsi, someone thought it'd be a brilliant idea to place little boxes with electronics around Boston. While I appreciate the humor, and I am laughing about all this - I have to ask, "What the hell were you thinking?"
Yes this gets press, but ultimately it's embarassing. Will it drive more people to see the Aqua Teens movie? No! Everyone who was going to see it was already going to see it! I'm still going to see it (because it's one of the funniest shows on television) but come on!
