Welcome To The New Improved Consumerist

10523 views

Extensive market research that we paid out the @#$ for has determined that this blog doesn't contain nearly enough pictures of cakes and cute animals. Today, at the beginning of a new fiscal blogging year, we're pleased to bring you additional photographs of things you'd like to pet or eat.

We understand that many of you will be concerned that we are posting pictures that have nothing to do with the story or with consumerism in general.

To you we say, "our market research is unstoppable." Enjoy.

So does that mean you will start adding cats and cake in October?

user-pic

Are the cats and/or cake free? Because we could be into that.

I like to eat cats and pet food. . .

user-pic

Finally you guys have figured out that I like to eat cats and pet cakes! finally a website catering to my needs and wants!

user-pic

I think I'm going to like this very much, very much indeed...

user-pic

What a cute and adorable cake! And such a tasty looking cat!

user-pic

What about puppies? Can we get some puppies up-in-here?

user-pic

I love cats, but I can't eat a whole one.

user-pic

While I like adorable animals and humor as much as the next person.


This site appears to be turning away from being an informative or professionally run site and, therefore
another frivolous site to avoid.

"Today, at the beginning of a new fiscal blogging year, we're pleased to bring you additional photographs of things you'd like to pet or eat." Without going NSFW? It's like magic.

@StuckinLansing: You might want to check your calendar...

@StuckinLansing: What about this site screams unprofessional? Heck, The Big Money site has LOLeconz cats...seriously, there's a way of mixing fun with functional.

user-pic

@StuckinLansing: Seriously? I think even a site about helping consumers can be fun every now and then.

user-pic

I think I'm really looking forward to read consumerist today.

user-pic

Next time you should pay me. I could have given you that advise or much much less.

What about things I like to pet AND eat? Let's post some images of soft broccoli, people.

user-pic

If you'd realized this sooner you wouldn't have had to sell to CU!

user-pic

Ahem.


The Cake, it is a lie.

@StuckinLansing: Hey everyone, read his name: Stuck in Lansing.

If I were stuck in Lansing, I'd be a miserable prick too.

user-pic

@octopede: I don't understand. Aren't they already doing that with the cat pictures?

user-pic

I approve.

Cats + Righteous consumer rage = winsauce

@StuckinLansing: Come on, this isn't the McNeil-Lehrer News Hour. We talk about KFC getting into the pothole repair business here!

user-pic

@missdona: I agree. One more vote for puppies here, but not on April Fools Day. Cats are a joke; puppies are seriously wonderful.

user-pic

i would have told you this... for free.

user-pic

TOTALL PHOTOSHOPPED. Look at the cat's muzzle in the first picture -vs- the second. The markings on the muzzle reverse sides.


SHENGANIGANS!


I blame the OP.

user-pic

@StuckinLansing: Oh this is like, your third comment. I get it now. Lurk moar.

user-pic

I actually like the site better with the cats. The cats should stay past today!

user-pic

@razremytuxbuddy: I HATE puppies! They always have a wet-dog aftertaste!

user-pic

For those who are "up in arms" over the "changes" it is April Fools Day, duh!

user-pic

we're pleased to bring you additional photographs of things you'd like to pet or eat


Ooohhh... Can't it be a pic of both? Mmmmmm.... Braised cat.....

user-pic

MOAR CATZ.

Plz.

user-pic

In Soviet Russia, cake eats cat!

user-pic

@Gokuhouse: Indeed.
Although the first Consumerist pict of a cat in an Easy-Bake Oven, curled up in a cake tin, and I'm writing Ben such a nasty letter...

Oh. Hey. On this special day, I demand the Captain grace the pages!!

user-pic

I hate cats. Can we get some more dogs?

user-pic

@segfault: Err, kittens?
A litter, served with toothpicks on the side, makes quite a party platter!

user-pic

@Yossarian: impossible to do without going NSFW.
