The only thing you are doing when you put a flier on someone's car is littering by proxy. How many returns out of 1000 fliers do you expect to get? Maybe 100? That means that 900 of those fliers are going straight to the roadside, or if we're lucky, the trash or maybe recycling bin. Any time I get a flier on my car, I call the number on it and complain that I now have to dispose of their trash. I don't think it's going to work though and I'll probably give up in frustration long before people stop doing it.
I wonder if there are any movements to make fliering illegal.
"Yes, you can have rolex 20 times chipper!"
From the "What Were They Thinking" files we have this subject line. I have to think that the rolex should be quite a bit less expensive after 20 times through a chipper. Or maybe there are 20 pieces of the timepiece from the chipper
I just don't know...
Here are a couple of random links I found interesting. The Mac Mini Millennium Falcon mod and the iPhone iSpoof Art Show.
Both are from Gizmodo.
