Taglines Revisited

If the handful of you who actually take the time read my blog (thank you!) know of any interesting taglines, I would love to hear about them.

I was trying to find interesting or noteworthy tags for a client and came up woefully short. Which leads me to the same conclusion I posted about recently: people just don't get it!

Here were a few that I found funny mainly from sites I've mentioned in the past:

someecards: “when you care enough to hit send”

The “blog” of “unnecessary” quotation marks: “misinterpreting bad punctuation since 2005”

Gizmodo: “so much in love with shiny new toys, it’s unnatural”

And last but not least --

The Crack Team (concrete repair specialists): Mr. Happy Crack says . . . “A dry crack is a happy crack”

Please tell me there are actually some valuable taglines out there somewhere. Bueller? Anyone?

Thanks! I loved "The 9 Most Meaningless Corporate Slogans" -- especially Hilton's "Travel should take you places" (is that really their tag) along with the Cracked key takeaway: "we're forced to conclude that the Hilton Corporation simply wanted to remind us what the definition of 'travel' was, just in case we were trying to reserve a room in our own homes via the Hilton website."
