Burocracy can make you want to strangle a MOFO

Post by Alfred_E._Neuman »

I don't have a lot of experience with vampires, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got to it, it had turned back into my neighbor's dog.

That's hilarious. In an infuriating sort of way.

If Nike tried to put 5 swooshes on the front of their singlet, they'd likely run into similar problems as these knuckleheads.

"Our logo is a bird. Let's put a fucking flock of logos all over our singlet" was guaranteed to cause problems.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

Yeah, I'm kind of having a little trouble sympathizing, too. It is a bit annoying of the bureaucracy, but that you have a small spot for a logo so you can't just turn your entire singlet into a logo. The other designs made the entire singlet into a logo and they were just trying to game it.

Bureaucracy sucks unless it's really clearly outlined and applied to everybody equally. That appears to be the case here.

That said, "The USOC may have concern over the use of any birds" is a really great line.
