FedEx Talks Back to ‘Net-Surfing Time-Wasters

We were skulking around the Internet when we came across this hourglass-shaped FedEx banner. It turned on its own a few times, then invited us to flip it ourselves. So we did and it said something really snarky like, “You must have a lot of time on your hands.”

Oh how we seethed. Then we realized it’s been a long time since we’ve felt anything at all about a banner (have we just been burned too many times before?) so we thought we’d post it.

Nice how it flipped without bringing us anywhere or generating pop-ups.
