@2012ad Me to; self-medicating with Zicam and Gin & tonic. Repeat as necessary.
@AbsolutelyF Love it; the world needs more intelligent ppl, expressive language, and brutal honesty. Kudos to ya! Lenny Bruce would be proud
@AbsolutelyF I like the way you talk... ;)
Here for another class this afternoon Right Management (7300 W 110th St # 800, Overland Park, KS) Overland Park KS
@EdRoberts Congrats -- that sounds way-cool!
@mobasoft Funny thing is that for every "offended" person there are probably 10+ new ppl exposed to the brand; a net win IMHO.
@mobasoft @badgergravling Another parallel example would be the Absolut ad earlier this yr w/ the fake USA map http://tinyurl.com/5dog8u
@c_giffin The UrbanSpoon app for iPhone does that!
@davewiner Men are presumed to be thick-skinned and able to tolerate cheeky reverse sexism in ads; Cheerios commercial is a great example.
@mobasoft Totally -- the #motrin meme hit the right combination of hot buttons & got momentum quickly; worth studying from that perspective.
@davewiner Totally; it seems like the whole thing is a "Twitter bubble". I really doubt the "outside" world shares in the outrage. #motrin
@davewiner I'm missing it too; seems there are some overly-sensitive ppl that feel denigrated by the pithy treatment of the "babywearers".
@Mobasoft How about an equally "offensive" Motrin ad targeted @ men -- maybe something to do w/ dragging a sack around all day?
RE: Motrin angst: Methinks it's getting blown way out of proportion. Twitter is *becoming* the news with this story rather than reporting it
Finding it mildly amusing that people who regularly toot their own horn usually have the most fragile of egos.
