Ever seen a camera before, Joy? It's not really that amazing. No need to smlie, tbh. You're not missing much.

Aeterna · 06-13-2007, 02:12 PM

The question is: What's on your camera display, because you are awfully curiously looking at it.

BaGGs · 06-13-2007, 02:17 PM

Yeah Joy keep the natural color.
Matches with your big(and beautiful) eyes.

You see, if I try to look INTO the camera instead of AT it while I'm taking the picture, my hand always shakes and messes up the pic :/

Margeret Thatcher proved that would be a bad idea.

For those who aren't up on British politics...she was our Prime Minister once. She did a terrible job...worse than Blair

Believe it.

Although Blair did make our education better apparently. Meh i don't follow politics.

There are no girls on the internet.

Fact.

Anyhow, the Starbucks logo...

Quote:

Lately I've stopped seeing pictures of the Siren on Starbucks mugs - they seem to favor just the word "Starbucks". I also started seeing the new type of the siren as part of store decoration and on coffee packaging. She only has one tail. I guess the family-unfriendly image of a fish-woman spreading her tails is on its way out.

Brand Autopsy: The Evolution of the Starbucks Logo

Quote:

At the beginning of September 2006, Starbucks temporarily reintroduced their original brown logo on paper hot beverage cups. Starbucks has stated that this was done to show the company's heritage from the Pacific Northwest and to celebrate 35 years of business, however the vintage logo has sparked some controversy due to the siren's bare chest. Recently, an elementary school principal in Kent, Washington, was reported as asking teachers to "cover up" the mermaid of the retro cups with a cup sleeve of some kind.

Yes, America is that conservative, sadly.

Starbucks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So, in summary, the Starbucks logo you see today is a neutered version of a sort of mermaid spreading her legs for sailors who need some damn coffee. Modern culture has forced the 20/30-year-old logo to adapt. Damn society. Sometimes I have no idea how people can possibly think this logo is offensive, mainly because no one will even imagine the image to be what it is unless they're tipped off or they're extremely perverted. In the second case, they ought to be modified, not the logo. Why can't we lobotomize a still-living human again?

>.> so doesn't surprise, we like to think we're so darned liberated but we are knee deep in taboos, and that's why the unthinkable happens in deep dark corners of our society.. /sigh

Liberty is an illusion ,a select few will always have power no matter how a society is formed.
Even anarchy will have leaders ,people are pack creatures and inevitably will put their trust in someone to lead them.

Not something to regret really its just the way we are.

(of course this is only my opinion and you are entitled to your own of course)

Sad but true.

Freedom is an illusion and People are sheep.
