Truworths mankins get down and dirty

11 07 2009

Hardly hidden by the sale banner in the Cresta Truworths front window lie a set of three naked manikins providing sexual favours on one another!

Its bad enough that the staff of Truworths don’t want to dress the mankins in Truworths clothing, but positioning them in inappropriate positions can only be described as brand #Fail.





South Africa’s Online Reputation #Fail

22 06 2009

Everyday my blood boils as I read yet another negative story on the South Africa’s ability to host the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The lack of any concrete base in all of the accusations made against South Africa’s ability really frustrates me.

My top 5 reasons why South Africa will #fail in hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup:

• Because you’ll get shot by Zimbabwe farm raiders. Aiden Hartley from The Daily Mail

• Blacks are allowed to run around freely in the street. Sheldie Cohen of AspenWebcam.com

• The pitches are so bad in Botswana that New Zealand refused to play, therefore we are not ready

• Air horns (vuvuzela’s) are allowed in South African stadiums (There are even Facebook groups to ban them)

• Crime epidemic, check South Africa’s YouTube CV (pretty scary)
