In the new issue of CMYK- this made me really angry

Gymnastics is the new ballet.

I am strongly getting the urge to write in to this magazine and ask them wtf they are thinking

don't be that guy

.

it wasn't a buy to be placed in the ad. CMYK is a quarterly magazine that hosts contests and publishes what they deem the best of the student work.

I've only picked up one issue. I just know it's a print design magazine.

Even worse might be the ad design itself.

So true.

So a judge looked at this and thought it should make the top 30 or so pieces that got published.

If this was student work, I'm half inclined to think that a judge included it to be provocative... and if I want to be really cynical, to ruin the kid's career-- because it was published in CMYK, you know the kid is going to include it in their book, and that cannot be good for them.

Nike is a company that makes shoes. I don't own any Nikes. From my recollection, I don't think I ever have. I do own a pair of Cole Haan shoes that have Nike Air Cushion Soles™ in them.

i'm laughing out lol.

Feel secure in knowing you are absolutely humorless.

I have a good sense of fucking humor, thank you. This ad is just a big piece of shit.

The only people who should be so offended as to write a letter in outrage are ballet guys... and they probably laugh at that ad... Hey... someone made fun of albinos... can you right a letter on behalf of Merf for him? It's a big world out there... and one day when you are older you will see it...

as Richie said...
