While Joe Jaffe is all excited about having been present yesterday during Coke’s Experiment #214 at which the famed EepyBird did their Diet Coke/Mentos thing, we’re gleefully snickering at the mammoth company’s 180 on the whole thing from its “craziness with Mentos doesn’t fit our brand personality” stance to its eight-months-too-late embrace of the stunt. We’d be as excited as Joe too if we were there witnessing the event but we can’t forget that Coke is doing this because their ass was taunted and dragged into it. I’d be curious if the word Mentos was even allowed to be mentioned at the event. Joe makes no mention of it in his review of the event.

Real confidence rarely needs to announce itself: it shows up as stillness under pressure, a level voice when everyone else in the room is raising theirs, a willingness to let silence sit for a few extra seconds, and no need to perform for an audience that was never really watching
