Little Caesar’s has posted nothing about the ides of March leading me to believe they are a joke of a company

I’m actually legitimately pissed about this. This day has been handed to them on a silver platter and they haven’t even acknowledged it.

You’ve centered your entire brand around a cartoonified Caesar and you can’t even be bothered to make a themed daily deal or something. It’s even Friday. It’s spring break for some people. Prime pizza opportunity. No effort. Not even a vague tweet.

Hi! We’re introducing Important Blue Internet Checkmarks here on Tumblr. They’re a steal at $7.99—that’s cheaper than some other places, when you consider that you get not one but TWO checkmarks for your blog on web only (for now). Why, you ask? Why not? Nothing matters! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Get yours here!

tumblr_inline_pc0oe2whpf1s59fp6_500

EXCEPT kEVIN

WHY

WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS

i was curious (and kinda hoped that kevin was like, the manager of the whole foods) so i googled it and:

tumblr_inline_oi3n3nrjod1qhn7sh_500

RUTABAGA. THE POLL ONE IS RUTABAGA NOT KEVIN.

#my initial reaction to that last statement was doubt‚ but she is in fact right #anything that makes me laugh this much deserves a reblog #(the funniest part is actually the reveal that Whole Foods sponsored this list‚ IMO) #(though if they’d placed Kevin at the bottom for a punchline that could have worked) #food #otters #names #advertising #juxtaposition

Tumblr Blaze is very good because tumblr correctly deduced that if they ran a real advertising service using targeted demographics we’d have burnt this site to the ground, but ALSO correctly deduced that we would be overjoyed to collectively pay large amounts of money to spread shitposts onto completely random dashes in a delighted flurry of slightly malicious mischief. You really do gotta hand it to em on this one, A+ problem solving.

Incredible content brought to MY DASH with OTHER PEOPLE’S money? Yeah, I’ll support that

I do not know what this is about at all but that is arnold

Imagine ye olde tales of sirens, but like if the sirens calling for sex were about as effective as your average porn bot. Less of a mythical creature, and more of a regular nuisance.

You and the gang pass by these misty islands and there’s a billboard in the water reading “Hot sirens in your area! Just jump off your starboard bow and say hi ;)” and nobody really talks about it, you just keep hoisting the sails and privately hope that whatever poor woman had her photos stolen for it isn’t suffering because of it

Yet somewhere you suspect there are sailors that inexplicably keep falling for it because there’s always a new billboard every week

Loving the idea that the sirens will like. Run out of billboard money if they don’t eat enough people

You know how it is

It really annoys me that skillshare makes the people it sponsors call it an “online learning community”, because like. As far as I can tell it is in no way a community. AFAIK It’s just a bunch of videos!

 

sigmaleph:

anything that has more than 2 people is a community

 

the-dao-of-the-zerg:

This thread is now a community

 

argumate:

an online community no less

 

theothin:

and I just learned things about skillshare from it!

 

the-dao-of-the-zerg:

By our powers combined, we are an “online learning community”!

 

sigmaleph:

we should start advertising on youtube

movie trailer structured more like a paper towel ad: “Unlike the leading competing brand operatic sci-fi, we actually planned this trilogy before filming it. 3x more characterization. plot! value pack size. Save with galaxy and your wallet with Nebula Lasers!. in theaters near you.”

every time yall post abt some cursed thing a hollywood product did, it has the effect – do you understand this? – it has the effect of causing me to hear about the hollywood product. to become aware of the hollywood product. i do not like this. but hollywood does
