What's a Pajama Boy?
A few people have written to ask about the origin of the term "pajama boy" that's popped
up here a few times. In 2013 the Obama administration launched a website to encourage
young people to sign up for Obamacare. The website featured a picture of a young man who was apparently the model of the new American male (as defined by liberals). The internet
went crazy with what's now called a meme and circulated many modifications to the photo.
We offer the original pajama boy here but your search will yield some clever modifications.

Who Counts The Votes?
Or, who is keeping track of the number of Operators who've signed on to EOTF?
We hear Oak Brook is claiming they've hit the magical 67%.
Does anybody think that's true?

Study: 25% of Americans Stopped Buying Because of Politics
In my humble opinion, there's something to this - there's a change happening in our
culture. Aside from politics, it seems more and more normal people are, if I may coin
a phrase, "Issue Spending". We've always had extremists on all sides of every issue who
will boycott, protest etc. But now we have middle of the road parents who won't take
their kids to Sea World because of the treatment of Orcas or those to complaining
about who advertises on what TV show. These people won't be marching and carrying
signs but they'll beat up a brand on social media and will never pull into that parking
lot. Anyway, as the one branding expert says,
"brands shouldn't worry about political biases of consumers and should refrain from
getting caught up in politics".

You Can Learn a Lot About a Liberal From Twitter
If you're on Twitter you should take a look at the left leaning views of the
President of McDonald's USA. He's allowed any views he wants but to vent
them so publicly shows a lack of maturity and good judgment. And for the
President of the domestic division of a major company to bash the President
of the United States (no matter the POTUS' party affiliation) displays his
incompetence on a large scale.
