I love how the random stuff at 7-Eleven that’s not snacks connotes a weird sorta party:
“Guess what we’re doin’ tonight?!? We’ll play cards, roll dice, sing happy birthday, mess with a flashlight and use bug spray!! Happy Birthday!!”

Because The Earth Has Been Around 4 and a half Billion Years And You Just Got Here
The Earth doesn’t need a tune-up. The Earth doesn’t NEED anything…it is a PLANET! Earth is not even insulted by this.
It doesn’t even care that I’m defending it against this crappy concept.

Juice only good for normal human!

Big Day For Box Of Rags
I’m thinking the generic Box of Rags people consider this a major coup. Scott® with all their supposed marketing might gets bumped down the page, “Rags in a Box” product overshadowed by the sheer mass of Boxes of Rags
I can just hear the Box of Rags sales guy exclaiming to his boss:
Fred! Are ya sitting down!? Just got off the phone with the catalog people. We got a full spread, top third of the page. Above Scott!! BOOYAH!!!
“Bob, don’t make the word ‘headless’ stand out”
I like how they chose the yellow and a script font for Headless though.
“Okay, it’s less prominent but I don’t want headless to get lost!”

Made With Real Food, Good Source Of Ingredients
Sometimes you just wonder why they bother to write these things on a package. The cheapest food in the world doesn’t need sexy. But it wold look empty with just the oh-so-generic brand Pasta USA and the photo. So the designer just had to say something. That explains it.
