Just had my first "Spooktacular" email. ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do we have to have it, every single year? Can we not, just once, have something original and not so stupid?

And while I am on the subject, that goes for Eggstraordinary, Eggciting, Eggcellent Easter. grin

I have no idea why it winds me up so much but it does!

Lazy copywriting irritates me too, my agency gets kicked up the arse for that kind of thing.

When I was a student I worked in sainsburys....they made me do rabbits about 'eggstraordinary' Easter deals and 'spooktacular' Halloween treats cringe

Easy to criticise though, why don't we come up with some?
