The bougie love advertising for free! You know how many yeti stickers I see on cars? It’s a fucking ice chest…

[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Those Apple stickers. This was in the Bay Area but not that many people work at Apple. Even if they did, who would advertise their employer on their car??

The stickers come free with any of their tech

I’m aware but you don’t need to use them!

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

They’re stickers.

The universe gets all tensiony if they don’t get stuck on things.

what is "leer" for that matter

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Are you referring to seeing "Leer" on the backs of trucks? If so, Leer makes the tonneau covers.

still don't understand why they like to advertise the brand is that like part of their personality? is it the Arch Linux of truck bed covers?

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Its a logo applied by the manufacturer.

[–] nonfuinoncuro@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

surely that's not structurally necessary for its function

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago

Sure? You gonna expect every manufacturer to de-badge their wares or something? That's just about the least invasive advertising there is.

It's Spanish Big Book propaganda.

I prefer to belive this explanation except I always see it on big gas guzzlers and the drivers look like people who don't read any books in any language
