teleen_fictionAs a follow-up to this post, I thought I would share the form response their "Consumer Relations" department sent. I know that it's a form response, because someone else on my f-list got the exact same e-mail.

Thank you for writing to us about Dr Pepper TEN and allowing us to respond to your concerns. I am a woman who loves the full flavor of Dr Pepper TEN and the fact that it’s only 10 calories. When I first saw the tongue-in-cheek advertising campaign and the tagline, my reaction was, “I’ll be the judge of that.” In other words, no one is going to tell me what I can eat or drink.
We hope you, too, will come to see our advertising campaign for what it is, a humorous take on the many men who are worried about their waistlines but are too “manly” to drink a diet soda.
Sincerely,
Consumer Relations

Screw them telling me how I should be feeling and explaining to me (in very small words) exactly what their ad campaign intended to convey. Guess what, douchekayaks at Dr. Pepper? I understood exactly what your ad campaign was conveying and it wasn't what you thought it was.
I hope your company goes bankrupt.
