Insulting Heineken Ad - General Tiki

I mean really...do you want everyone to be into the "Tiki Culture"...just because it is popular? Or would you rather those who appreciate it for what it is continue to appreciate it unfettered by the fickle trend followers? Look what the popularity of "Television Bikers" has done to the motorcycle industry. Prices of Harley's have gone through the roof, making it cost prohibitive for the original bikers to own bikes. I recently bought two sets of 8 PMP tiki mugs at a local antique store for around $20 per set. Of course it was a major score, but then, if it got too popular...would we ever be able to get these kinds of amazing deals again? Let them keep their umbrella-less beers. As long as they think it is un-cool...we will reap the benefits. [ Edited by: Tik_Nado on 2005-06-27 09:48 ]
