  • You are such a wind-up merchant! Of course I'm not, no.

    My view on this is that Boycotting something is kinda serious, advertising your boycott on the internet more so, and you need some pretty good, water tight reasons to do so.

    That the BD owners are described as pricks or something to me isn't a good enough reason on its own to consciously stop drinking their beer. So I wanted to know the detail, and to be fair, there's a list of reasons, some of which if viewed uncharitably might get BD on to some folks' 'Boycott' list - if not necessarily mine.

  • Fair enough. For me their copy makes me cringe enough not to buy it (that's not a boycott though). And 'Equity for Punks' is probably one of the worst examples.

    It amuses me to think it's all written by the same copywriter as Innocent drinks, just switching to a slightly different persona.

  • 'Equity for Punks'

    Seeing the guys in the new Canary Wharf branch checking their portfolios is uber-cringey.
