Corporate Spelling has been
going on for some time now. You all should
understand what I'm talking about. Corporate
Spelling is when the name of a product is misspelled
in order to make it seem cool. Need an example? One
that comes to mind instantly would be the Burger
King X-Treme Whopper.
Yeah, that just pisses me off.
Look at it. X-Treme. X-Treme. Jesus Christ in
Heaven, who the fuck thinks that is cool? Maybe like
the first two times it was used. At this point it is
almost cliché. Or rather, a bad cliché.
Now, see, the problem is that
now-a-days, everything is X-Treme. X-Treme Bacon
Cheese Burger. X-Treme Sports. X-Treme Cuddly Teddy
Bear. My God, just shut your fucking mouths and get
a new goddamn word, you corporate bastards. Do you
understand?! Its bad enough that you must use the
word extreme on everything.
That's another thing that
pisses me off. When everything that you fuckers sell
is extreme you degrade the use of the word for when
it actually describes something that is legitimately
EXTREME. Best example: Extreme Championship
Wrestling, or ECW. Now that was extreme. For those
of you who know what ECW is, you understand. For
those that do not know professional wrestling, no
explanation would satisfy you. But, I say it was
deserving of that title, extreme, so therefore it is
true. You don't think so? Well, up your nose with a
rubber hose, dipshit.
Back to the original subject.
Even the world of professional wrestling has pissed
me off by misusing extreme. Case in point: XFL, or
the X-Treme Football League. McMahon deserved to
have the XFL shut down after one season for that
unforgivable sin.
And this is not just limited to
the use of X-Treme either. The world is going to
hell in a hand basket because of all of this crap.
The use of typing shortcuts is being used now as
well. You know, using 4 for the word for. Yes, I
know that has been going on for some time, but that
still pisses the shit out of me. Use of Gr8 instead
of Great is another one. Look kids, were rebels just
like you, we hate grammar. No, you just look stupid.
If I were to have a business and I used these things
in my product names or in the advertising, Id blow
up my building with myself in it. If any of my
people suggested it, they would be fired. I would
then have the Mafia make them sleep with the fishes.
Then I would shoot them. I would then proceed to
sell drugs to their children. But all of that is
another story altogether.
I am sorry if this seems
shorter than previous articles. Do not think this is
because of a lack of hatred for Corporate Spelling.
Think of it more like I have very little time to
vent like this lately. So, in conclusion, I have one
final statement to make directed at those corporate
fuckers who use this ungodly Spelling: Until you
bastards all stand in a circle on All Hallows Eve,
chanting from the forbidden lore of the Necronomicon,
draining the blood of your first born child into a
sparkling cauldron from which you shall summon forth
the Unspeakable One from his icy prison in Hell to
devour all that is good in this world and the life
beyond, nothing you do is extreme.
StretPharmacist is a lot like the Undertaker: A
gimmick that should have never gotten over, but was
taken to unbelievable heights. Also, he is
constantly injured. |
