Storage advert about town?

Postby Guest on Tue Apr 06, 2010 1:42 pm

Has anyone noticed the stickers around town from The Big Space?

They have on them: All your boxes are belong to us, and then there's a link below: http://www.thebigspace.co.uk/storage

Howcome they've used that sentence? It doesn't seem to make much sense..

It should have been "all your box are belong to us". Idiots.

Poor attempt at advertising too.

Would have had as much luck with a spam bot.

'Hey, I just noticed this great site!...'

On yer way.

I know, that meme was like ten years ago. I guess they're just not very good at marketing.

I'd be more interested to know 'Howcome they've used the University Crest'?

I'm going to see if they'll store all this Cialis I just can't stop ordering.

Where is this? Still haven't seen any of these adverts either.

I wondered about that too actually. Highly dubious.

Unless they're a University department, or have permission from the publications department, I'm pretty sure they're not allowed to use the University crest/coat of arms.

It was started by a bunch of students from here a while ago. It is actually the best option around - in fact, there weren't any other options around when I was still a student.
