salty and tastes like fish

Needs two sets of tildes and you only need one set for the entire string, boss!

I'm getting a strike through with the double tilde, what do you see on my original comment from your end?

Huh, I was doing subscript, comes out fine on mine. I'm on mobile Firefox

Is Airbus doing some kind of odd gorilla marketing, or did you just lose a bunch of money on Boeing stock?

[–] MataVatnik 24 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

I had these saved on my Instagram from the time that two 737 Max crashed about four years ago. Never thought these memes would ever be relevant again but after the door incident I had to pull them out and spam Lemmy with them.

In my case it's more disbelief and anger, I was pretty upset after studying the 737 Max crashes. They could have been completely avoided, but they chose to skirt regulation. Boeing test launch for the space capsule was a disaster, and now this. It's incredible, i would have assumed something would have been done after hundreds of people died. But it appears like issues persist and more people are going to die. All in the interest of profits, and our legislators are not only complicit but actively participating in this criminality.

Accurate, to the point, and emotionally compelling. Exactly what a marketing manager hired by Airbus would say! I'm on to you.......

[–] MataVatnik 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I fucking wish. I'm unemployed and living like a hobo

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

Ah, I see they trained you well young padawan.

[–] sunbrrnslapper 8 points 10 months ago

I think tossing one of their execs and jail would inspire some changes.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

It guerilla marketing, gorilla marketing probably involves offers of food and sex.

[–] LemmyFeed 6 points 10 months ago

I'm listening...

[–] marcos 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Well, as far as we know, somebody could be hiring gorillas to punch airplane doors out of place.

[–] MataVatnik 4 points 10 months ago

As the newly appointed marketing executive of Airbus, this is exactly what we are doing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hilariously enough, that wouldn't work. They'd have to snap some bolts first.

[–] marcos 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I know. The force a gorilla can make is minuscule compared to what those doors withstand normally.

It's only a joke.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Granted, if we fail to put bolts in the 'rilla wins.

[–] aeronmelon 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Airbus would be foolish not to capitalize on the situation.

[–] fastandcurious 2 points 10 months ago

AFAIK airbus never publicly mentioned about any issues with boeing planes (787 had a lot of problems as well) when talking about their planes, I could be wrong tho

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

The onion, is that you?

[–] psycho_driver 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Maybe put a spire on the top so death-defying selfie takers won't be able to resist.

[–] MataVatnik 5 points 10 months ago

You're hired

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

I thought this community was about spreading bullshit...this is more accurate than so called "authoritative news"

[–] Snapz 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Like every other failure, it will be rebranded as a right wing grift and sold to desperate idiots that desperately need validation from an external group.

"No Libz Allowed Air" is the first airline with no safety regulations - you can smoke, the pilots can be drunk, there's peanut shells on the ground, because of freedom!

[–] MataVatnik 2 points 10 months ago

Already saw a comment on Instagram saying it happened because of diversity hires
