This post is proof that if a business can’t post ads on a platform like Lemmy, some asshole will post it for them.
I've seen screenshot of that account meming various stuff, I don't know the details of the business he may be running but sometimes people just say things about things and those things may be companies.
To be fair, those cookies are pretty fucking good. Marriott does it too. Fuck 'em, though.
Copycat recipe
Have this at the ready.
Not sure why you're being downvoted, this is clearly an ad.
Indeed. These MFers coming in here posting shit with brand names on it. What is this, an ad consumption factory? "Yes, please, I'd like you to name the specific brand that is somehow relevant to your story with a supposedly funny twist that flips our expectations by going in a different direction than what we might have assumed." Get outta here with this shit. White brands only. Next time, try saying "a hotel" instead. Otherwise, we'll ensure you need generic, brand-less stuff to remediate the effeccs we gonna have on you. We ain't gonna take ads in here. This is a brand-free zone. If it got a © or an ®, refrain from naming it. No trademarks either. No discussions of Intellectual Properties either.
Genuine question: would you think this about any post that showed a company in a positive light? Or are there specific things about this post that tell you it's an ad?
The Mad Lib type of writing.
"Today I learned that [enter service of company], they [enter bonus service/ product offered]."
It walks, swims and quacks like an ad.
