Does the entire Innocent Smoothies aesthetic strike you as deeply fucking irritating?

oh i'll be sending them an honest opinion alright

charlie from smooth viking here, i'd like to increase our email open-to-face-punch ratio. and no, i don't care if it's not physically possible.

the fact that every model on their homepage is sporting an undercut (and one with a bun) makes my purchasing decision extremely easy

I was unsure what I thought of their brand name, but having seen the site I'm not liking it

either they shave and have smooth skin, or they exhibit some sort of viking skill making them worthy of being called "smooth" and I got nothing here

here is a site with guides to mixing your own olive-oil-and-beeswax things btw

i think it's the #thuglife part i find most teeth-grindingly aggravating

Dear Mr Drug Dealer

the rise in police forces using twitter for "banter" is a real pain. imagine being the type of person who happily retweets the flabby arm of the state's horrendous attempts at humour.

I'm guessing you're familiar with the comedy stylings of the Garda Traffic Twitter account...

indeed - also the irish gardai on facebook is a fucking horror show - badly spelled, random, occasionally offensive, they haven't a fucking clue.

That drug-bragging wouldn't be a good look for WYP, especially after one of their plods was caught with 700k worth of confiscated drugs stashed at his house last year.

love a bit of pig banter, drug dealers are really naughty

This Bradford cop who was stealing all the drugs for himself was caught with bales of cocaine (weighing 11 kilograms) at his house!! He probably could have made a Pablo Escobar statue out coke and still made a small fortune on the rest.

one of those twins was clearly getting more nutrients than the other

surely the twins should be a racial mix of black bin and green bin

oh i get it, bins with parents of two different ethnicities are all just grey as far as the general public is concerned

aye but both of those adult bins are male - an important breakthrough for representation of lgbtq+ refuse containers imo

do they think that by announcing the birth of the two bins people will be pleased at having yet more complicated waste disposal practices?

not sure if this counts as Innocent Smoothies aesthetic so much as just rubbish marketing

Hope all is well, I have been trying to reach you over the past few weeks to discuss your 2017 cloud based projects. However, I have not heard back.

This leads me to believe that...

a) at the moment, your company sees no value in taking advantage of all the Google Cloud Platform has to offer

or....

b) 2017 is not the year for your company to realize the performance, scalability and savings of moving to the Google Cloud Platform

or possibly....

c) you are trapped under something heavy, just outside of reach of your PC desperately trying to respond

Whatever the case may be, in efforts to give you some time to mull it over or find availability, this will be my last correspondence. If you would like to discuss any aspect of your cloud computing initiatives via a google hangouts you can book an appointment here . I am always a call or email away.

For the record, this is the goofiest, most infantilizing rejection letter I've gotten since, maybe, first year of college? pic.twitter.com/Mzuf9qil7O

The scope of newEpicJob is a bit limited.

And those single quotes around Uber look decidedly non-ascii.

Advert/warning on the All4 app. This must be one of the worst things like this I've ever seen.

http://i.cubeupload.com/dsGBCl.png

gnnnnnggggghhhhhh

the fucking ads make All4 unwatchable, if you make the mistake of pausing, forwarding, rewinding you get subjected to another bunch of unskippable ads

that's why I love illegal torrent sites. At least even when the viewing is predictably dire, I can console myself that at least I'm successfully depriving this appalling channel of a few clicks.

Good grief

That is fucking monstrous

It's not just 'business transactions presented in kid-speak', it's knowing adult to knowing adult in knowingly pretend kid-speak

my line in full

A: the grown-ups are all gone, we will not see them again in our lifetimes
B: bcz it's up to us now god help us
C: deeper magic from before the dawn of modernity :|
D: ^^^a fuckton of this, it's everywhere, it's the ground we all walk on and it's gone live again

I might be getting old and boring, but I'm so glad life has led me away from having to meet people like Atticus

Is that supposed to be some sort of super-meta level of irony? Like hipsters are now so self-aware they're being ironic about themselves?
Or did the copywriter get the brief and literally copy and paste the audience description into the body text of the advert?

"His beer crafty and his food street" is ultraviolet level ugh

Seriously, if it wasn't for the text in the tiny black rectangle at the bottom, I'd have thought this was an extract from the creative agency's pitch to their client, not the actual advert itself

that is exactly how it reads, yeah

No way do any of the Atticuses I've met have a "quiet" distaste

Unfortunately Atticus is going to be living 10 minutes away from my front door

wonder what atticus' ilx login is

this is amazing. i'm amazed

Also the flats are being built on the site of Manic Street Preachers' old studio.

surely this is just really bad copy - like nobody self-identifies as a hipster, isn't that the entire thing that makes the word so frustrating? nobody is going to read that and think "yes that's me, i'm that guy", even subconsciously? maybe i'm putting too much faith in people.

frustrating? nobody is going to read that and think "yes that's me, i'm that guy",

"He is a pioneer of style and architect of his own subculture"

I'm guessing they're not trying to attract the hipster, but the conceited ageing douchebag hipster who manages him

"critically self-aware" = life-threatening levels of self-awareness

Yeah maybe. I suppose to an extent any of these "types" created to sell a given brand are deeply hateful. I've done bits of copy for some hotels in Dubai in the last few years and I feel dirty and sick inside each time I see the finished brochure.
