On the way to get coffee and breakfast this morning I passed a guy talking on his Bluetooth headset to someone. It was bizarre in part because he was sitting on a bench and using his hands a lot... it was comical, even.
As I passed him, I overheard his intense conversation.
"Tagline?" he said, shouting, "That's not a tagline. This is a new restaurant. A tagline is three words or less, and this doesn't say anything about the place at all!" He was livid, using a tone of voice I'd reserve for people who bring their laptops into public bathrooms.
On the way out of the coffee shop, he was still there sitting in this public plaza by himself and yelling into thin air. "This is a f-ing restaurant, and here's how you do it."
I trust he was speaking about Sizzler.
They really are trying too hard.
The posts are too long, the tone is very PR-ish (in a bad way), and gah. Just... gah. Totally missed the mark.
4. What specifically caused the delay on the XPS 700?
The delay in shipping the XPS 700 resulted from a combination of issues that came to the surface soon after launching the product. For competitive reasons, we can’t go into specific details. We can say that the issues were not related to many of the rumors you may have seen in the blogosphere, such as a processor inventory issue.
Rumors on the internets!
They say "blogosphere" a lot, too, which is a term I abhor. (I was startled when Matt used it in his presentation.)
