What’s the frickin’ problem with these ads?

Frickinchicken Some people expect—nay, demand—that their chicken sandwich advertising be free of obscenities. Or anything remotely in the same ballpark as an obscenity. A Sheetz convenience store in Pennsylvania is having to put up with such people, who have complained about its “Crispy Frickin’ Chicken” ads. The concern, according to the offended parties, is that kids might start using the word frickin’ at school. Because you know, it starts with “frickin’,”  then it escalates to “darn it” and “shucks,” and then society as we know it collapses. (And what did the folks in Altoona, Pa., think of Burger King’s Big Buckin’ Chicken, anyway?) Still, while Sheetz has been polluting the younger generations with almost-filth, its chicken sandwiches are selling well. Which is fan-frickin’-tastic.

Designers vs Developers

The designer creates an idea for a web page, then passes it to the developer, who can only recreate the design as much as the technical limitations allow. Before they know it, the work is compromised. The designer blames the developer. The developer blames the designer. And the riot police are called.

But it really doesn’t have to be like this,

This is the premise for a new viral campaign by MRM Worldwide UK for Microsoft and the Expression Studio software suite.

MRM’s previous viral campaign, ‘Stationary is Bad’ won a silver Cyber Lion at Cannes in 2005. Be sure to check out the website http://www.microsoft.com/uk/expression/webharmony/.
