People are weird.  And some people just love to complain.  Thanks to the explosion of social media & brands using the likes of Facebook to try and make a sale, the axe grinding has never been more public.  And it can get strange.

    The Macy’s and Banana Republic father’s day ones are downright hilarious. Note that someone “liked” the fact that she doesn’t talk to her dad and isn’t getting him anything!

    I read somewhere that, with the prices of cotton going up and all, most of Gap group’s upcoming sales are going to be women’s only and exclude denim. (I’m pretty sure the article with that info was linked to from this site, in fact.) So while it may be silly to call the women’s only sales “sexist” there’s a distinct possibility that we may start to see more and more of them….

    Why is the tech dumb? Lisa asks on June 8 whether the coupon code works. The tech says it expired nine days earlier, on May 30. Seems like a good explanation to me.

    See–I don’t think they’re that attention hungry, just bored/ranty. Facebook as a whole almost encourages bored & ranty people–so the fact they’re exhibiting this behavior towards stores isn’t that strange.
