It's getting my Western gag reflex past the idea that might be tricky, but I'm game. Similarly, mold doesn't belong on anything I'll be eating this side of a fifth Conservative term. I have to hold my hand up and say it's disgusting (probably). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember after Gerald Ratner gave that speech, I felt an irresistible compulsion to go and purchase a set of earrings and a prawn sandwich. It may have cost his business £500 million but, all publicity is good publicity Publicity isn't marketing though. Marketing is with a view to selling more whilst publicity is with a view to getting something talked about. Whilst the burger van's publicity strategy is undoubtedly successful I'm not so sure about it as a marketing strategy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Aside from the debate over the marketing strategy, a fat, sweaty bearded incel holding a burger which looks barely a rung above the shite at McDonalds isn't going to have me rushing to buy from them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying it’s definitely her but it’s highly likely to be legit and not sure why it’s not newsworthy yet. This might make the top five freakish obsessions about the disappearance.

hk blues Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 18 hours ago, throbber said: Why is there less than a 0.1% chance of it being her? She had physical resemblances and is about same age and doesn’t remember her childhood and also has the funny eye thing. If police are still going with the abduction theory then she must have ended up somewhere and now entering early adulthood. And for the record I’m not saying it’s her. I didn't say there was a less than 0.1% chance if it being her, I said if the police in either country thought there was any chance it was her they would have looked into it. I suspect they know she's dead and therefore know this young lady can't be her. The resemblance is there but it's hardly stark and given the 16 years passing of time I'd say next to meaningless. The eye thing - is it so unusual? - I suspect this is a case of having a similar eye feature and using it to give credibility to her claim. She's also 2 years older so the hurdle of fake birth certificate needs to be overcome. The username she's chosen also hardly lends credence to her story. I bet the McCann's will have had plenty of similar storied to analyse but for whatever reason this one got traction. Probably because of the posts on here! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
