Eco-Shaped Bottles
What a selling point, but what does it mean? There is an indent half way up the bottle
Arrowhead says they have made TWO big changes, 30% less plastic per bottle and the label is 1/3 smaller.
30% less plastic could come from the indent, which is also sold as a positive for the buyer because ‘its easier to hold!’
So the manufacturer uses 30% less plastic, puts in the same or less water and charges the same or more than older style bottles. It’s a win-win for the bottled water company.
I suspect that people have no idea how much money they spend on liquids that they put into their bodies, so they think they’re ‘doing good’ when they buy the eco-shape bottle and recycle it, not knowing that they could have money in the bank and one container refilled from taps at home and work.
No bottle at all would be best for the environment, no recycling, no chemicals leaching into the water from the plastic bottles. Most places in America have – gasp, how uncool – tap water that can be put into reusable containers and carried around.

High heels, golden pants, two belts, khaki shirt, Indiana Jones hat and classic motorcycle. Yep, a typical American woman heading off on summer vacay?
Anywhoooooo, I’ll be driving a big SUV, with beach towels, boogie boards, and multiple kids! Like most American moms lucky enough to get some time away this summer.

Um, is that like Super Spidey senses?
A purse does not give you power.
Carrying a $15,000 purse does not give you power.
It just means you have $15,000 less in your bank account, or you’ve charged $15,000 on a credit card.

Fisher-Price thinks baby girls should play with lipstick and purses…

Since your paycheck doesn’t go as far as it used to, and your job security is shot, you might not be able to pay full price, $1400!!!!! But you sure will look hot, and it might surprise you with a NEW source of income, courtesty of PRADA…
This might be a new interpretation of ‘stimulus’ program… hehehehe

Burn your kids CDs so kids can feel the heat, so they can feel the eternal flames they’ll suffer in hell for listening to this music and being ‘gay friendly’.
Please tell me this guy is kidding?

Somehow, this ad makes sense only in one way, as a tease.

Its a well loved ad, highly Dugg, no surprise there!
But how are they sure the extra 1 million pixels won’t go to her hips?

In classic blind understatement, AOL put up photos of the new “it” color for spring, Peach, as the new ‘DO’, without realizing they have an anorexic ‘DON’T’ in the photo.
They show two pretty women in hot dresses.
Look closer:

One of the girls looks near death. Huge forehead, hair receding, shoulders painfully pointy, arms like bones, legs like spindles. This girl is sick.
She should not be glorified as the ‘color of Spring, as a lighthearted ‘DO’. “Do keep your eyes peeled for…pretty blush colored shades,…this shade will light up and flatter your face”.
AOL says “There’s really no DON’T to watch out for with this trend!”
She’s a DON’T and needs help.
Lets hope she lives to see a couple more Springs…
