    You know what they say, nothing beats thirst like a cop beats black people like a crisp cold coca cola. The cops beating up innocent people of beverages.

    Yes indeed coca cola loves to assault your thirst. The way cops assault their wives.

    Coca cola and cops, two peas one pod. Like two girls one cup. Except instead of two girls eating shit it’s coca cola.

    Mmm. Coke.

      Just like a coka cola funded paramilitary organisation quashes a union by killing its members, a crisp sip of coke will quench your thirst like no other

      On a similar note, I have a few notes for a coca cola ad. Particularly in regards to the war on christmas.

      I’d like the ad to open with the crucifixion. When Jesus cries out “I thirst”. Then a Roman Soldier passes him a crisp and refreshing Coca Cola from a cooler.

      Not really sure how to end it, but I think its fine to cut after Jesus says “Ahhh!”

    Did it make you want a coke?

    • mech@feddit.org ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Yes, actually.
      I guess I’m pretty sensitive to ads now, since I usually don’t see any at all.

  Hi I’m the developer that made the app you’re using.

  Click the persons name

  Then click the 3 dots menu

  Then you can block from there. If it’s not intuitive enough, I’m open to suggestions for how to make it easier.

  • Nindelofocho@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I like the idea of the block button for people thats never messaged before. I think a lot of other platforms do the same

    source
  • cheers_queers@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    thank you for responding, i did not expect that! the block button in message would be helpful, as well as a report button if that’s feasible. i figured out how to block them but not how to report them without DMing a mod directly. p.s. i love your app in every other way :) this was the first inconvenience i have had with it.

    source

    • moseschrute@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

      No problem! I think making the “Block User” button will be a genuine improvement. I don’t think Lemmy lets you report users, but it looks like you can report private messages. I’ll add that as well.

      The banner will look something like this

      |----------------------------|
      | Bock User | Report Message |
      |----------------------------|
      | Message                  ^ |
      |----------------------------|

  Someone needs to send this to that guy in the Comic Strips community who keeps cropping out artists’ signatures because he thinks they’re “ads”.

  He hates ads so much.

    Very strange individual, even by Lemmy standards.

    he’s a real one

    • moakley@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      In some cases he has used AI to remove watermarks. It changed other details of the comic. Pretty gross.

  Given the date, I doubt this has anything to do with the company. Probably just a joke/troll with poor taste.

  Apr 1st would be a really dumb day to start a new ad campaign on a platform explicitly created to escape corporate greed. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot…

  source

  • daggermoon@piefed.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Definitely just a troll. Ain’t nobody high up at Coca-Cola even knows about our club.

    • InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      There used to be a novelty account here called Margot Robbie. I like to imagine it was her, but also pretending its not her by using word choice that would suggest a fan account.

  I got the same thing, but assumed it was because I made a comment yesterday about the brand in mention, and this is someone’s idea of an April Fools joke?

  • scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Yeah not in the best taste, but everything today should be taken with a grain of salt

    source

    • Zachariah@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Yeah, but Coca Cola is the best taste. Doesn’t need to be taken with a grain of salt—even today. There’s nothing quite like the crisp, invigorating taste of an ice-cold Coca-Cola. Each sip delivers a perfect balance of sweetness and sparkle, dancing across your taste buds with a refreshing burst that instantly lifts your mood. Whether you’re sharing moments with friends or taking a well-deserved break, Coca-Cola brings a timeless sense of joy and satisfaction. It’s more than just a drink-it’s a classic experience, chilled to perfection and made to be enjoyed anytime.

  Holy shit, I was just wondering how to vent about this shit. I vow that I will NEVER drink that dumbass drink ever again. This type of advertising gives me a personal grudge that, god forbid I ever have children, I will pass down through my fucking bloodline.

  source

  • EpeeGnome@feddit.online ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I mean, I don’t actually want to talk you out of your vow there, but I’m fairly confident this was from a random troll with no affiliation to the actual company. I mean, I don’t doubt they’d do it if they thought it would be profitable, but even if they did foolishly think this would work, I’d be shocked if we’re even on their radar.
