It’s a good thing there isn’t much grass because you would have to do some serious peddling to cut that lawn.

Miracle Whip ads: Love them or hate them?

Miracle Whip ads: Love them or hate them?: "

Miracle Whip


It's a renegade brand, see? It throws up video showing people trashing its product and takes out full-page ads admitting it's not for everyone. Except this new Miracle Whip campaign, from ad agency mcgarrybowen, seems fairly disingenuous, given the almost lyrical jabs that some of its fans (and non-fans) are throwing its way. Example: James Carville opines that 'Miracle Whip is America,' while an unnamed man-on-the-street says it 'tastes like spreadable disappointment.' Amy Sedaris says it's 'great in the bedroom,' and I can believe she's really freaky like that. But Jersey Shore's Pauly D wouldn't eat it or use it on his 'do—and we're supposed to believe he wasn't paid for that anti-endorsement? The first commercial in the new campaign hit during this week's episode of the Fox musical Glee, and a full-page ad in newspapers followed, pointing people to the video snippets on a YouTube page where the 'lovers' vastly outnumber the 'haters' (10,400 to about 600, at most recent count). This is all a continuation of earlier Miracle Whip ads meant to portray the brand as hip, wild and anti-establishment, if such descriptions can even be applied to a condiment. Not to mention, it's a rip-off of Marmite's 'Love it or hate it' campaign in the U.K. You be the judge. Do you buy Miracle Whip's 'Keep it tangy, bro' posture? Or does it leave a weird taste in your mouth?

Yay!: The Legend Of Zelda Turns 25 Today

Yay!: The Legend Of Zelda Turns 25 Today: "legend-of-zelda-birthday.jpg

That's right folks, today, February 21st, 2011 marks the 25th anniversary of everybody's favorite video game franchise. 'Not mine, I hate those games.' OH YEAH WELL I HATE YOUR FACE SO THERE. Such a f***ing Ganon.

Including the original game's release on the Famicom Disk System in 1986 (for which it was a launch title), a total of 14 unique and 'proper' Zelda games (excluding re-releases) have been published by Nintendo for the Famicom/NES, Game Boy, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, GameCube, DS and Wii. A number of other Zelda games, some not made by Nintendo and others being spin-off titles, have also been released in that time, while the 15th game -- Skyward Sword -- is due later this year on the Wii.


With The Legend Of Zelda: The Ocarina Of Time widely regarded as the greatest game ever made, and with the series as popular and iconic today as it was back in 1986, it retains a very special place in the heart of many gamers


Are you thinking what I'm thinking? If you answered, 'let's all head down to Lon Lon Ranch for some cake and milk' you are! I'm gonna drink straight from a cow's udder! 'Uh, GW? That's a bull.' Soooooooo...this isn't an udder is what you're saying.

Happy 25th Birthday, The Legend Of Zelda [kotaku]
