I think it's the same as Corona the beer brand. Nice random boost but not something to make a big deal about. Just keep the brand going and don't turn it into a joke even if some of your customers do!
- jackcosgrove 5y ago> don't turn it into a joke even if some of your customers do! I remember seeing pictures from some house party in New Jersey that got broken up during the lockdowns. It was corona-themed and the partygoers were dressed in hazmat suits and drinking cases of Corona. Not exactly the kind of imagery you want someone to remember about your brand.
- benatkin 5y agoCorona is a general-purpose beer, perhaps more than any other due to its ubiquitous option of having it with or without lime. Its use in terrible events is a red herring, like when the stealth bombers started using Kubernetes and some wondered if it took away from the individual developers' efforts. (I think it probably does, but is the same with any foundational open source project.)
- ddingus 5y agoExactly. Not really unfortunate, unless they make it out to be. Could be way worse!
- Fnoord 5y agoIn the 90s there was also a famous eurodance song called The Rhythm Of The Night, by the artist name Corona. Its been stuck in my head for almost 2 years...
- mercer 5y agoWell, thanks for that earworm...
- ddingus 5y agoSorry... I like that one, but am glad it is not such a persistent ear worm. One I cannot always shake is of all things, "Safety Dance" by Men Without Hats... Dunn Dunn Dunn de da dunn dun, de da dun dun de dun dun... And from the club 12" mix: S... A... F... E... T... Y... Fortunately for me, the tune is a good mood, kind of silly reminder of good times. I don't mind it sticking around for periods of time. Maybe reading this shakes your earworm loose!
