    Kill it with AGENT ORANGE!

    Seriously, was the focus group microdosing or what when they came up with this abomination? It's like Swamp Thing has come ashore in Aisle Six!

      @cstross Looks like it needs feeding into a grinder then killing with fire.

      Now, where did I put the BIG Rizlas?

        @cstross I think you'd need more than a microdose to come up with that.

              @cstross kill it with agent orange is not a great thing to joking about. Please look into what the Americans did with agent orange in Vietnam. It's caused issues that continue today... It's not a funny joke.

                  This needs a whole back story about a GMO scientist who caught fire and plunged into the produce section. Today he fights crime and scurvy.

                    (but really: criticising even someone trying to get kids to eat their veggies is peak criticising. trying is better than not trying, and cynicism is worse than not-so-clever ideas)

                          @cstross the adverts are even more deranged as the "fruit beast" is chasing children. Looks like it's made of insects to me.

                                    @cstross I think the fruit-vegie creature is cute. The 'free fruit and veg for schools' ad though, I'm not so sure about. There are no fruit and vegs around, there are instead plushies, and those aren't free.

                                      @JdeBP @cstross Looking at the pixels, I'd say it's about 6m tall (or 20 ft in D&D units). The UK not being part of the EU anymore, of course we can't be sure about the standard size and curvature of the banana parts…

                                        If it's anything like how we do things in Canada, it was probably a good initiative that would look bad politically to kill so they paid an agency that is linked to the cattle industry or sugar industry to spearhead this campaign so they made this abomination to say they did a thing but gee, it just didn't work.

                                        In Ontario, they made the heat pump rebate program so ungodly to access it's nearly impossible. You need to follow so many steps and pay $20k upfront for the pumps. I muttered under my breath that they probably paid off someone to make the program as shitty as possible. Then I found out it's literally administered through the natural gas distributor. Open corruption is what we've got here.
