Derry Alli Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 It's basic marketing. He'll make a fortune off the back of it. For me personally, it still rankles me that the fucking mother and father of Madeline are still free to walk the streets. Horrible, horrible people. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Been long overdue for this thread to turn into the sub for fast food chat IMO. Pineapple on burgers - better/worse than on pizza? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't yeast technically mold? No more bread or pints for you. I notice the Welsh town of Mold has this pub. You've been misspelt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because something offends some people it doesn't necessarily make it a bad marketing strategy. What has REALLY helped this guy is the fact that the "outraged" won't stop talking about it. That will certainly push business his way. Using your haters to boost your profile/business/income is a very well-worn and proven strategy. Except it only seems to be you who keeps talking about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now you're having a go at me for answering someone's direct question to me? Are you quite finished trying to control everyone Welshy? I can't recall asking you to even get involved in any of this in the first place. Laugh at anything you like, obviously, no accounting for taste. It's just that you brought it up again today from a comment @throbber made last week, whilst claiming it's we snowflakes who won't let it drop. The story basically died last week when the advertising authority ruled against it, the burger company promised to never use it again, and the social media companies banned it from their platforms. But you still keep pushing this nonsense that it's a great victory for freedom of speech against the outraged snowflakes. https://www.asa.org.uk/rulings/the-otley-burger-company-g22-1150545-the-otley-burger-company.html 1 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 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
