Ok, so everyone has heard about these "transmitter" keyrings the are being handed out at robots to track peoples movements. Well recently our company notice board (electronic one) has become the perpetuator of this sort of drivil.
So one bloke posts a link showing that it is a hoax and they are only marketing gimmicks. So I decided to fuel the idiocracy with this post and a quickstick image I slapped together. Sad thing is some people actually fell for it:


------------------------------

Please disregard the article in the prior link. This is NOT a hoax folks. Unscrupulous criminals would have you believe that these are mere “promotional” key rings, but facts are fact.

Even more disturbing is the nature of the components used, these “high-tech” pieces are sourced from communist countries like Finland and Eastern Ireland. Note they are NOT biodegradable.

Yeah, I knocked it up. The main pic is actually the back of an old TV. Then there is the badly clipped death star. And the Caltex pin I lifted off E-Bay. :)

Yeah, some people fell for it hook line and sinker... which is unfortunate cause it was meant to be a satire and blantantly impossible.

Just reproduced it on MyADSL... see what happens.

And Guess what!?!?!? :hyper:

I just realised how I can become Rich!! Im going to report you to Caltex and tell them that you actually work for Sasol and the government and that you're being paid to send out these pics and scare people away from Caltex service stations where they will receive their FREE promo exploding keyrings :pompom:

Thanks Slaps...Ive been waiting for my big break for years :D

On a side note Slapster: Couldnt you really actually get into trouble for using that Caltex logo on a hoax pic?

No Meg
Brand(s) is public domain, you can deface it, but you cannot make profit off of it.

Oh ok...to be honest I am a TOTAL supporter so Caltex could've closed down 20 years ago and I wouldnt have noticed :D
BUt if they do...please let me know so I can see if I can get in on the action :p

Oh and BTW... I had a guy give me 2 free lighters the other day at the robot... so I give them back and say I dont smoke so no thanks... so he says... THEY'RE FREE TAKE THEM... so Im like NO... so he kinda throws them through the window onto my lap and says... THERE... take them.. so Im like...fine... thank you... so like 5 seconds later... he looks at me and says... can you please give me a donation towards the FREE lighters YOU TOOK.
:eek: :eek: :eek: :baseballbat:
I almost thought I was on one of those cadid camera shows.
I gave him his lighters back and said better luck with the next car :mindblowing:

Dude did that with me but he chucked in like 5 lighters (they stolen so he don't care much). He also asked me for donations after, Told him I have no cash, he asked me for the lighters back, so I said no they mine I got them for free. He did not seem very happy :p

Has also happened to me with those tissue packs, Those I at least was able to use and they worked :D


Friend of mine was in a rental and some peeps were handing out those free condoms that no one should use, so he grabbed the box and said thanks, "you said they free", the person asked for the box back so he chucked all it's contents into the back seat and gave the box back. Robot changed and drove off.
He gave the rental back 2 days later, unclean :psycho:
He never got any kind of reaction from the rental place though :sad:

Its the new tactic that they use to try and sell cheap stuff and get more than its worth. He does you a favour then asks you for a donation cos he is hungry or something to the like. You feel bad because he just gave you something for free so you give him R5 or R10 if he is lucky but the lighters were only worth R1 so he scores more than he would have by selling them to you.

I like to explain to them how badly im going to beat them if they dont get away from my car. The one time I took what the guy was giving me for
"free" and drove off, I think he was bleak :D

OMW... Im so making sure Im NEVER EVER driving around with either of you or your strange friend Noodes :gno:

:rofl:

Im going to start taking their "free" stuff and Im going to keep a couple of nasty items I randomly find around town and then Ill give them those items as donations... Ill have to work on my plan though... because a 2 week old banana in my car won't be such a great plan :hurl: :p
