Annoyance redux

[zengar]

A month ago I posted about a sign that annoyed me. Well today I encountered a new billboard in the same campaign. This one had none of the features that so irritated me about the other, but makes up for their lack with a complete lack of content.

MY FRIEND DOESN'T
KNOW HER WORDS
HELP ME GRADUATE

Maybe it's supposed to be a haiku? I really hope whoever came up with these didn't get payed a whole lot to do so.

Another potential McDonald's assistant manager graduates high school. Huzzah.

I want to know what company is responsible for this idiocy.

I'm hoping there's a whole website out there somewhere, displaying each mind-damaging piece of crap they've churned out, and thoroughly blasting the company until it's stupidity is so legendary that the company fails to sell whatever it's got and goes down like a brick.

Seriously, they need to know that if they're trying to promote education, they should have posters written better than what you'd get from a retarded third grader.

It's worse than I thought. Your post caused me to look up the site mentioned on these posters. Boostup.org (http://www.boostup.org/) is a HORRIBLE example of web design. Just looking at it I can tell that they are spending more money on "cool" features than on usability, and I can't help but think about how many better uses there are for that time/money.

It also looks very gimmicky. "Look, we're promoting teen learning, aren't we good people!"
