(Corporate) Straplines

What is a Strapline?

Every company and its dog now appears to have/need a strapline.

How did it get like this?

Even a one-man operation window cleaner now must have a fucking strapline.

However, I`m in two minds about this nom as I only want to target the massive corporate inane straplines – you know the ones (hit the link above), and I`m sure you cunters can come up with some more `appropriate` phrases for most of them.

But they can also be rather clever and funny.

A few years back I remember there was an estate agents office on a street. Then one day a strapline appeared under the company name: “We Sell Houses”

Now, I don`t know if they were trying to be deliberately funny or if they`d brainstormed the marketing to such a degree that in the end they simply imploded and said `Aye, that`ll do.`

Anyway, a few weeks later the butcher’s, next door, put up a new sign under their shop name: I Sell Meat.

Which was funny.

Now, I could go on to the far end of a fart with this, suffice to say that the best strapline I`ve ever seen was on the side of a builder`s van …
Patel and Singh | Builders: “You`ve tried the Cowboys – Now Try The Indians” …
Toyota Owners

Of course, this now begs the question, ADMINS, what`s this site`s strapline?

Perhaps you can open the floor to us cunters and have a competition with prize(s)?(Vorsprung Durch Fackoff! – Day Admin)

I`ll start the ball rolling…

  1. My favourite strapline is the one where companies try to attract your business by claiming ‘we care’. Yeah course you fucking well do.

    IsAC straplines?

    ‘Cool for Cunts’.
    ‘A Cunt A Day Helps You Work, Rest and Play’.

    Morning all.

  2. Unfortunately some companies have multiples of these vomit inducing straplines no less the cunt company I work for, these include and sadly I’m not joking:
    “Building a better world. Together”😩
    “Global centre of excellence”😳
    “Total quality. Assured”🤢
    “Building back ever better”🤮
    No wonder the company logo resembles a S bend.

  3. Does anybody remember the great Smirnoff vodka line ‘…until I discovered Smirnoff?’ eg ‘I thought pas de deux meant “father of twins” until I discovered Smirnoff’.

    I always hoped that they’d have the nerve to go for ‘I thought Wanking was a town in China until I discovered Smirnoff’, but sadly they wouldn’t.

  4. Slogans should stay. Strap lines disappeared when teachers were band from chastising or disciplining unruly kids at schools.

  5. Metropolitan Police – We stand by you… whilst you promote your hatred.

    George Galloway – My only concern is for me.
