There exists an astroturf MS campaign to convince people that the cool kids now work at MS. The cool kids being self thought and with spiky orange hair.
Like almost all MS advertising it is terribly cheesy. The main point seems to be that at MS you DON'T have to ask for permission to go the bathroom.
While there are places that do track you that closely, fortunately they are few and MS is not in competition with them. A gas station is mentioned, but MS is not competing to hire gas station attendees. In short it's a TERRIBLE attempt to be cool.
Even though this MS campaign is quite successful at being a mockery, Zed felt the need to also mock it. Much like kicking a man who's already down, it's not clear this is as funny or smart as Zed seems to think it is.
Never the less Zed created an intentional parody of something which was already an unintentional parody.
He also threw the word "whore" in for good measure, but not because one of the people involved is a girl, but because she's in marketing, that's according to Zed.
- Tichy 17y agoThanks for the information. I have come to the conclusion that Zed thinks too complicated for me to follow his lines of thought.
