Oximoronic

"It's image, because it's not product". This is a quote from an especially productive meeting we held. Among the other brilliant thoughts of the same colleague are "Look at how good he draws, this round thing is a bear", referring to her son.
However my favorites are definitely "Osama is either in Afghanistan or somewhere else" by you-know-who, and one of my friend's "Oh, fuck, you are so impolite"

Off-topic: Cartoon Network 2.0

Dee Dee died,, so did Mandark, the daughter of Grim and Mandy was ripped apart, Jack is a gym teacher. If these names don't ring a bell, the rest won't be interesting, but if you've spent some time watching Cartoon Network, you are bound to appreciate the new adventures of Billy&Mandy ( though Billy is dead ) and of the Powerpuff girls, all drawn by their original creator in a darker, adult version of the series at snafu-comics.com

Shock And Awe in HR

Today, I felt like an Iraqi at he beginning of the aforementioned military effort of the US, led by Monkeyboy and his faithful republicans.
Our mediaplanner asked the following: Has anybody heard of a magazine called MAX? ( Yes, we are talking about the international men's magazine)...
In other news, an account interpreted the following email: "Dear ... we'd like to gather fashion editors of leading women magazines to present our new collection in the showroom at ...." as " we want to dress up the magazines' fashion editors in our clothes and make an impromptu revue..." What is more shocking is that after calling the company to tell them this is not such a good idea, none of the bulgarian marketing officers laughed in her face, or phone, actually...
Nothing so scary you'd say? Well, the same people who hired the people above, hired me...
