Apparently, marketers aren't the sharpest crayons in the box. A few noteworthy incidents that deserve mention:

1.

Look closely at the oddly rectangularly-shaped blades of grass surrounding two tall starbucks refreshers, with a dragonfly heading straight towards one of the cups. Reread the slogan, and facepalm.

2. A Swedish company called Locum wanted to do something special for some Christmas advertising. So, they replaced the "o" in their name with a heart.

3. Oh Panasonic.

I can't do the story justice. Just scroll to the bottom and read: http://www.cracked.com/article_2043...rketing-disasters-by-famous-companies_p2.html

A few side notes,
- cracked.com is awesome
- yes, I'm alive and no, I'm not pregnant
- what forum is this?

How about the new lambo that was unveiled with the word 'Lamborghini' spelled incorrectly on the rear? Trying to create controversy and media attention, or blatant embarrassment by the company? Probably the latter.
