Open Fire on Just For Men Inc.

Just For Men blows and their marketing department needs to hear it. If you have seen their ads (how can you not, at least if you have Yahoo Mail) you're picking up what I'm puttin down here people. Or like I told my dear friend Sara (Hi Sara) if you need to get some rage out, bash something corporate, immoral, mediocre, anything, make Just For Men your primary target. Their ads are ridiculous. If you need ammo, here's what I wrote them:

To: JustForMen@combe.com
From: Lwebster007@yahoo.com
Subject: Your Internet Marketing and Advertising...

... it sucks. It's ghetto too, and pops up in Yahoo!
Mail and bugs the hell out of me. Lacks creativity,
logic and needs deeper manipulation of the minds of
consumers- you won't hook them with this garbage. Nice
job with making hair color and hair growing products
the ticket to getting laid or flirting with some hot
chick in a bikini. PLEASE. Ineffective and every dude
is shaking his head saying "yeah right" when they look
at your soft porn ads. Who's running marketing over
there? Some horny 13 year old boy? Or a 65 year old
man who pathetically thinks your Miracle Grow for his
male pattern baldness and dyed hair will lure some
model half his age into his bed? Quit pawning Grandpa/
Director of Marketing's little fantasy off on every
other pathetically bald, graying, insecure man out
there.

On another note...
Is Richard getting old for you, Richard?

Would you like another name?

That is an excellent e-mail. I hate ads like that too. They're like the beer commercial ads. Dude...drinking {insert beer name here} will not get you hot chicks.

Also, you are very right and I love that email.
