Vancouver Blog Finds: S-Mart, Euro Greenery, Irish Drunks, Marketing DBags

*Shop smart. Shop H-Mart. And never missing a chance to burn the fat cats, "And they have a rockin' food court. McDonalds sucks even worse than usual when compared with the fast food pictured above."[Beyond Robson]

*Kits is European. And full of scooters. Apparently. And this
is why I don't live there: "Many people seem to opt for scooters here because they are good on the hilly landscape, cheap on gas and cleaner for the environment, navigate well in the narrow streets, and because Kits residents often have a chic, trendy mindset–with which the Vespa is synonymous."[Arbutus Walk Talk]

*I really don't care that it's St. Patrick's Day this week. Celtic Fest is full of lame. I don't get the connection to Crush Champagne Lounge either. In other news. Irish People Demand Right to Drink Anywhere. {Gawker]

*Viacom sues Google/Youtube. Giving us this kind of amusing commentary: "Echoing the sentiments of a fellow colleague, consumers own brands, not the companies that make them. Seriously - Viacom is hurting their fans by making it more difficult for them to ‘play’ with the content." And I still hate marketing "thinkers" who talk this kind of communist nonsense about brand. People watch Two and a Half Men on CBS, what does that say about their brand? About the people who own it? People suck. End of story. [Movieset]
