These Little Things

Posted September 4th, 2007 in Reflections by M

Attention to detail, methinks, is a lost art. These small things we overlook can make a world of a difference. And it is these same small details that can set us up for the high jump.

Ah, the joys of e-commerce. Wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall when a chap goes to this site and over the phone says that he wants the Female ASS-HOL-GR213?

Pee & Poo still amazes me. It boggles the mind at first page load what these good folk are selling. Look at the attention to detail. Look at the droplet shape and yellow colour of Pee, and the irregular shape and brown colour of Poo. The concept of the Pee & Poo shop just boggles the mind!! At least they don’t have a catchy byline like “there’s a little pee  & poo in all of us

peepoo

Adobe might want to rethink the URL of their Experts Exchange blog, which at first sight suggests rather dramatic diversification of their business

And finally, these logos raise very alarming questions …

    Those guys at Pee and Poo clearly knew what they were doing!

    But for the rest, just how long does it take someont to realize that their signs are…not what they’re supposed to be?

    Yes M, I rock. Thank you very many.

    Hooray! I can! FINALLY! That one in the plane, that’s what they call flying blind! Seen the latest Transformers where the guy is reporting to headquarters as a Deceptarcon is anihilating all its path and some bored service communicator keeps on trying to entice him with the premium service the guy’s credit card can be upgraded to? Hilarious! Like the plane thing!

    i get that someone can make a mistake, but the pee & poo one clearly is a deliberate, premeditated effort…

    Attention to detail died a long time ago, when someone decided to release a haemorrhoid cream in America called Anusol. Although they pronounced it as AnYOOsol in all the advertisements, all I ever thought of when I saw it was Anus-ol.

    M,
    On this report:

    “The ODM leadership said three central processing units (CPUs) with information on their finances and administration were carted away by gun-wielding gangsters who broke into the Orange House offices near Yaya Centre at 2am.”

    Please clarify to these folks that this is impossible!!
