There’s a streak of sadism in this year’s holiday efforts (observe 1 and 2). We blame it on the hell CGM has wreaked on our psyches.
To illustrate this devolution in goodwill, last year iStudio was all about helping people on their holiday consumer journeys. This year, loud and clear, they DO NOT WANT to deal with you. Or your crappy gifts!
The “greeting” lets voyeurs sift through a bunch of weird shit the agency’s been sent. If you like something (we kind of dug the zodiac thong), highlight it in red and send the agency a note about why you deserve it.
Flippin’ awesome.
Several years ago we were lame enough to blog a list of gifts we received but didn’t want (a gift set of Christian romance novels, a woolly Felix the Cat sweater, a box of crumbled chocolates). A relative happened upon it and sent the blog to all the gift-givers mentioned.
Christmas, for us, has since been awkward.
