Summer Associate Faux Pas

Hey all, sorry for the late movie Monday post… it took me a while to get inspired today.  Here and here are the inspiration for this week’s movie.  Enjoy!

This has lawsuit written all over it

Crazy story out of Massachusetts, as 5,000 Happy Meals were distributed with colored condoms instead of a plastic toy from the movie The Last Airbender.  The condoms were intended for the Provincetown, Mass. school system, which recently established a policy making them available for students of all ages; however, they were delivered to McDonald’s distribution center in Barnstable, Mass. in error.

“The packages were so bright and colorful that they were misled by small toys for Happy Meals, but unfortunately most of the workers who do not read English package, and thought ‘Ribbed Latex’ was a character in the movie,” said Robin Anderson, vice president of public relations for the chain, as published by El Universal of Mexico.

The mistake led to an incident in a Brewster, Mass., McDonald’s, where more than a dozen 8-year-olds attending a birthday party all opened their condoms at once, and immediately blew them into balloons and started batting them around the restaurant.

The McDonald’s incident also caused problems in Provincetown, where the schools accidentally received the restaurant’s shipments of Last Airbender toys, and several were released to students who went into their school’s nurse’s office seeking condoms.  LOL.

Another newspaper fail

The picture below is sad on three levels for me:

  1. Is “Farmville” on Facebook (and other similar games) serious enough that you need to report a loss of “work” to the authorities?  It can’t be that serious.
  2. Did he really think that messing with his Farmville game was a criminal penalty?  Is this guy really that dumb?
  3. Is this really what’s newsworthy these days?  And they wonder why nobody buys the paper anymore….
