PETA trolls the Miami Marlins

Now, this is the kind of PETA I'd like to see more of:


The above is a mock-up of a sponsored paving stone that PETA put into the promenade of the Miami Marlins new ballpark.

The slogan is actually an acrostic that reads: F I S H I N G H U R T S (dot) C O M.

I'm not a PETA fan, and I like to go fishing. But I appreciate a good prank. Plus, it's very appropriate for Easter, since acrostics were a popular code among early Christians.

It may not be effective social marketing, putting a hidden message out, but the earned media around it should garner a few extra clicks.

At least no humans were abused in this one.

And the most ignorant Facebook comment of the week goes to...

Those poor children.

In response to this image, shared by The Why Movement.


For those unfamiliar with the case, Trayvon Martin was a 17-year-old who was pursued and shot dead this week by a self-appointed neighbourhood watch vigilante named George Zimmerman, for the crime of "just walking around, looking about." Zimmerman has yet to be charged with a crime, because in Florida it is totally legal to carry a concealed weapon and murder people who frighten you by their very appearance.

F'd Ad Fridays: Poorly Photoshopped naked older women for charity

The women's auxiliary of the Lake Helen American Legion Post 127 in North Florida needs to renovate their kitchen. They saw the movie Calendar Girls. One of them has a nephew who knows Photoshop.

VoilĂ !





Ladies, I salute you.
