it's the only thing i can think of that remotely qualifies as "carefully crafted experiences that honor our Office heritage"

Yeah, i don't think that's an example of pure Innocent either, tho it's definitely Innocent-adjacent. It's more like hipster-artisanal.

I regularly walk over a bridge with a blue plaque for Hull-born Venn and fortunately it doesn't look like that

Apparently that one has recently been installed next to Drypool Bridge.

This shit seems so par for the course in the USA, for some reason I find it so depressing that it's infected England too.

it's not a uniquely british thing, but if you think it's par for the course in the US then i think you're thinking of something else.

there's def a specific gentler and more chummy british tone you don't see in american marketing. the american version of this leans toward "uh yeah! so that's a thing!" variety of obnoxious you see in marvel movies.

Have we mentioned app release notes on here before? It's a shame the aesthetic had infected Argos in this area when it steers week clear of it elsewhere in its corporate comms. Maybe I'll report the developers.https://i.imgur.com/OH9qoGI.jpg

A whale in double denim isn't everything that is blue except a delicious Bolt From the Blue™ Innocent Smoothie. Likewise Office Gossip isn't everything that is juicy.

What might be less amazingAt first, there was text here that said that this particular product could actually be made organic and in our humble opinion that would make it better but if we did that, we wouldn’t be able to add calcium and vitamins and still label it organic (only milk manufacturers can do that because they get special treatment). But then Anna pointed out to me that we can’t write that because as a company we haven’t officially decided whether or not organic is better and that for now we want to give people the option to choose. I replied that in that case, I don’t have anything to write here and she said that I shouldn’t write anything because there is nothing to question whatsoever about this product. Of course she’s right, but then again she is always right. If you’d also like to ask Anna a question where you need the right answer you can contact her here.
