I Need a Slogan!

[~FloweryFriend~]

Posted: 3/18/05 at 12:31am

I really want to get business cards to hand out to people at parties and whatnot so that I don't have to carry around a pen and write my e-mail address on napkins, because that's no fun. So I found some websites that will send you free ones. Since I'm not in a company or anything though, there's a lot of empty space on the card...

I've decided I need a tagline. A cathchphrase. A slogan. Something interesting to put right after my name...

Here's what I've come up with so far:

• warning: proceed with caution
• that's not just a name; it's an attitude!
• more fun than a drinking game
• time sold separately
• insomniactor
• theif of the spotlight
• in college and still acting up
• I leave my drama on the stage
• always making a scene
• student by day, thespian by night
• a little drama never hurt anybody
• drama not included
  
  
  Please let me know if you come up with any brilliant suggestions!

after drinking margaritas for a few hours the color of your font/post is almost impossible for my eyes to see!

...But, I think they are all perfect, my dear! Just perfect!

1. Priest... Dork? Who, me? Well, at least I'm loved.
2. Mary_Ethel... I kinda like it. Except that I'm on on DVD... But maybe I can play around with it. Thanks!
3. I changed the font color just for you, Addy!
4. Gunn... Very funny, and definitely apt, but I do want the people to whom I give the cards to contact me... So "insane" might not be a good message to send.

FF, you are so kind! MUCH better, for my old margarita-filled eyes...

I love them all - it's hard to choose!

if you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun!

1. liotte, that's a fun one, but it's not really me. I'm a rule-abiding type. But thanks.
2. I really like "drama not included", but whenever I tell people that they say it's false advertising, and they miss the joke... I think maybe "a little drama never hurt anyone" is the way to go. Opinions?

I think "A Little Drama Never Hurt Anyone" is kinda wordy, FF. How about "A Little Drama--But No Pain Involved!"...

[~FloweryFriend~]

Perhaps you're right on the phrase being wordy Mary_Ethel...

Hmmm...

I'll keep thinking

How about a simple: "Drama Queen!"

I apologize in advance.

Man, I Love You Guys!!!


(FF--that's not a slogan. I'm just posting my opinion about some of my fellow Board Members.)

FLOWERYFRIEND, I SAY THE FOLLOWING WITH AFFECTION:

I'M AFRAID THAT IF YOU HAND OUT BUSINESS CARDS WITHOUT ACTUALLY REFERRING TO A BUSINESS, NO ONE IS GOING TO CONTACT YOU ANYWAY. MAYBE YOU SHOULD PUT A FAKE COMPANY NAME ON THERE, JUST SO PEOLE DON'T THINK YOU'RE NUTS.

JUST A THOUGHT.

Oy.

"warning: proceed with caution"...

I believe that was the title of one of our very first PMs, when you were sending me a fun link. You know, back when PMs had to be carved in stone, and sent down the highway on the back of an messenger armadillo with cute little goggles. I LOVE hyperbole.

Anyway... moving on.

• Rinse... and repeat.
  
• Living la vida Drama. (for that retro feel)
  
• Never shake a baby.
  
• Strings attached.
  
• Batteries included.
  
• 2 for 1 espressos at the Latte House.
  

Those all suck. I'm not as funny as I think I am.

If I were Flowery I would go with Gunn's first suggestion...

I LOVE it...

At least SOMEONE has good taste around here...

Posted: 3/22/05 at 3:05am

im partial to "always making a scene"

you could always put your screen name on your business card to take up space too. Mine says Mistress above my real name.

i like gunn's first one, too. And 'drama queen'.

Of course, you can design it in such a way that you won't require filler text. Lots of negative space can be very striking. Updated On: 3/22/05 at 03:43 AM
