What's Up With That? #61: Worst Effen branding concept ever

Most people who know me at all well know that I don't drink alcohol.

Therefore, the following statement should not come as a surprise to anyone:

I do not want any Effen Vodka.



If you were thinking of giving me any Effen Vodka — say, as a token of esteem for a blog post well done — please keep your Effen Vodka to yourself.

And, while I respect your right to drink all the Effen Vodka you want (assuming that you're of legal drinking age in your jurisdiction), please don't drive after you've had your Effen Vodka. I don't want to see you injure anyone — including yourself — while under the influence of Effen Vodka.

I trust that I have made my position on this Effen Vodka as clear as... well... Effen Vodka.

Thank you.

EFFEN was named 3rd best Vodka. The branding is great, just visit the website! Says a lot more than yours. Go bitch about something more meaningful you hoe-bag.

(Hoe-bag? I keep my gardening implements in the garage.)

Jonah: What part of "I don't drink alcohol" and "I do not want any Effen Vodka" was unclear to you, my friend?

As for getting paid... no, but shoot me an e-mail and I'll tell you where to route your donation. ;)

This post reminds me of the SNL skit, for Sofa King. "It's SofaKing great!":)
