Toronto Which marketing battle did YOU the consumer, detest the most?

Thanks for the reminder Dain.

Actually, it was just last month when I got my hands on an original C9 Condition Prowl, completing my G1, 1984 Collection.

These recirculations are great, but I only collect the vintage die cast.

I have the entire first year all nicely preserved in Ziplock freezer bags. I also threw in the `85 Shockwave and `86 Reflector, since they were in the pilot episodes.

 

Yes and the container is ironicallys labelled "The Ark" and has one Transmetal Megatron sitting atop all the other toys.

 

You can apprecaite the irony in that can't you?

 

me stay off coffee? thats unpossible. ask kat or glenn. i'm practically a dealer.

 

Just say, no!

 

Now now Elewyn, it can be summed up with a Second Cup add.

Few things, sense makes in morning the.

 

True that is.

Elewyn in class with no coffee.....zzzzzzz

 

Now, you kids shouldn't be drinking coffee; It'll stunt your growth.

Cigarettes are much more healthier...

 

Darth Digital, do you know how tall i am? nothing much left to stunt

 

I don't drink coffee. only Alcohol. LOL

 

You kids shouldn't be drinking either.

*Silence amid the faint sound of crickets*

 

Hypocrit.

 

*Consults dictionary*

Wha? Your hypo's gone critical?

 

Of COURSE Transformers! DUH!! Go-Bots...I had ONE...and I think I took him apart...meh...

And I need not your pity, Adam...Pepsi is yummier!

 

Poor Kat, she ahs been lost to Pepsi.

 

P is for pepsi..thats good enough for me! pepsi pepsi pepsi starts with P!!!!!!!!!!

are you sick of me and my pepsi fetish yet? LMAO

 

Yes - but Coke was the only cola worthy enough to be endorsed by Max Headroom.
Max Headroom, people!!!
Need I say more?

What I dislike is negative marketing.

McDonalds will have an ad telling you something like "It's a good time for the great taste of McDonalds". Burger King will have an ad telling you that McDonalds sucks and only a fool would eat there when they could be at BK.

Turns me off. For years, I didn't eat at BK because of their consistent negative ad techniques (then of course I ate there and found I was justified to stay away).

Pepsi does the same thing which makes me instantly suspicious and wary of their product.

 

Elewyn, I thought you had a coffee fetish, not a pepsi fetish. Are you givign up coffee?
Is there something we should know?

 

You know, my hatred of Pepsi just went up a notch after scoping out those kick axe color cans they made for Episode 2 that they only released in Japan...

Now we know the difference between Coke and Pepsi as the long version of the song is:

Pee is for Pepsi, that's good enough for me!
Pepsi Pepsi Pespi starts with Pee (as a main ingredient).

All I know is thank God I don't drink pee.

 

message for dain: !

 

Coke to Pepsi is like Regular to Menthol.

And unless your really desperate, you shouldn`t have Menthol...

 

So in translation, Darth Digital is very really desperate.

 

No son, you misunderstood, I`m here cause I`m taking a vacation from all that sentimental candy floss...

 

Then explain the menthols.
