The day has dawned where the true might of a marketing juggernaut has decided to flop money at Facebook.
Target, one of the largest and worst online marketed firms in the country today launched a campaign to get people to “Like” them. In a move akin to the nerdy kid giving you his Star Wars figurine to hang out with him. Of course there is always the possibility of this being a scam. Either way, I’m so sick of paying for friends, and likes, and advertising on facebook.
Many reasons abound for my disdain for Facebook, but now Target leaves the same terrible taste in my internet experience. I will not like you, I will not spam my friends so they will like you, even if you pay me.
FREE BEER FOR LIKES!!! COME ON DOWN, 2nd Tuesday of the First Week of Ever Month!! Just visit facebook, and like me, and then tell 5000 of your friends to like me and the first 100,000 picoliters is on me.
{this is what I received, note it tells you how to do it faster at the bottom, excellent}
