Odd Finds: The Inappropriate Logo

by mr. hipster November 22, 2002
November 22, 2002
164

Everything changed September 11th, 2001. The country and the world will never be the same. Apparently this asshole slept through the whole thing:

I received a wonderful advertisement for AC Video Services in November, 2002 in one of those giant packs of coupons that are always jamming up my mail slot. Does the man live in a goddamn bubble? Does he know that the two towers that make up his stupid logo are no longer standing? I’m only assuming that the owner of this establishment made a conscious decision to keep this logo. I mean, it’s not as if he couldn’t have paid some poor schmuck another $25 to conjure up another piss-poor representation for his company.

And if his judgment isn’t poor enough for using the World Trade Center as his logo, he adds this tag line:

I cringe every time I look at it. “Recapture old and forgotten memories” next to a picture of the twin towers? Egads! What the hell could this guy be thinking? It’s just odd to me that someone somewhere thought it would be a good idea to keep this advertisement in play.

I think I’m going to start a company and use a big burning Hindenburg as my logo, or maybe a big likeness of the Titanic or a can of Cyclon B. Sometimes I just don’t get people.
