Towels vs. Bed Sheets
Thursday, February 26th, 2009Woooo whoooo…. so I guess I’m becoming official as I just completed my Benedict Advertising Super Hero Generator Questionnaire. If you’ve spent any amount of time on our website (and obviously you have - probably even exhausted all the good stuff and now sort of scraping the bottom of the barrel looking for your next BA fix - don’t count on finding it here, sorry), then you are keenly aware of our corporate mission to improve the world one FSI at a time by reverse superheroing ourselves. Unlike most masked crusaders that don their dreary day to day life to save the world we are superheroes by day and ordinary people by night, tasked with saving the world from unimaginative, ineffective and generic advertising.
There is a wall in the office that displays all the official super-portaits and I can see a pretty good chunk of it from my desk. The questions are semi-secret to us new people so I won’t provide the full list but the answers are used to help develop the costume, attributes and overall finished look of our super-selves. So while I was filling out my form, and when I got to question 10, while thinking of my answer I started to play a little game. You can play too, here it is; Question 10: If you had to choose between never washing your towel and never washing your bed sheets ever again, which would you choose? Now just match our superheroes to who is a towel washer and who is a bed sheet washer. The rationale behind your answers may astound you! There were a few I went back and forth with, mostly Nicole’s since she has a very wet super-persona (I went with towel-washer). I’ve actually played a similar game called Caught Prostitutes and Caught Soliciting Prostitutes which is similar in concept but fun for a little different reason.
