The Daily Sucker

Daily Sucker #1 for Friday, December 5, 2008

Submitter’s comments: Here is a website that was brought to my attention through a co-worker. The first words out of my mouth were “They really need to avoid working on their website after engaging in a round of ‘product quality testing.’”

Then as we clicked on the various links, I couldn’t help but recall your hilarious YouTube video review of Marijuana.org.

So I submit to you, under the category ‘coding under the influence,’ the website for the Aviator Brewing Company.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: The different colored, centered text reminds me of the old Marijuana.org site, which is no longer operational. I think they’re trying for the “drinking buddy” informal writing style like you see on the Brewing page and the other pages. Unfortunately, it doesn’t come off as clever but it reminds me of Dean Wormer’s comment in the movie classic Animal House: “Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son.”
