Saw this article in one of Asia’s Industry Mags …
I am sure they meant ‘particular’ … but it’s definitely funnier this way!

a bit like when planners are called valuable when what they mean are “wankers”. im bored, can you tell?
Comment by andy@cynic December 20, 2007 @ 8:34 amActually that seems normal enough to me. Not the most common way of putting it mind.
Comment by Rob Mortimer December 20, 2007 @ 3:58 pmUnique to would be the correct phrasing.
Comment by John December 20, 2007 @ 5:21 pmUnique TO would be the correct phrasing?
Is that you keeping in line with this post or a genuine slip up, John?
Comment by Rob December 20, 2007 @ 6:28 pm“who gives a flying fuck” would appear to be the correct phrasing.
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 6:33 pmThat is the most insightful comment of the day Marcus.
Comment by Rob December 20, 2007 @ 6:34 pmI know, I’m really going for that “possible” TBWA position. You can tell can’t you?
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 6:35 pmIt’s as if you read the “How To Land A Job At TBWA” manual!
Comment by Robert December 20, 2007 @ 6:37 pmOr at least the “How NOT To Land A Job At DDB”
Comment by Rob December 20, 2007 @ 6:40 pmDon’t tell me DDB read this fucking blog too?
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 6:41 pmNo it’s not a slip up “unique to” rather than “peculiar to” would be the correct phrase. Assuming of course that they are the only people who indulge in marriage counselling or whatever the hell that woman does.
Comment by John December 20, 2007 @ 6:53 pmbut nobody really gives a flying fuck John, so why waste your considerable skill and intelligence with this nonsense?
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 7:03 pmBecause that’s what it’s come to Mr. Bannister.
Comment by John December 20, 2007 @ 7:06 pmI think I will hate you for all eternity for that comment Dodds.
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 7:07 pmNo you won’t!
Comment by John December 20, 2007 @ 7:15 pm…o…k…
Comment by Rob Mortimer December 20, 2007 @ 7:21 pmyou’re right. I’ll hate you for little bit and then love you again. It’s the power you have over me. It’s the power of the master-marketer!
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 7:28 pmjohn and marcus, seeing as you guys are having a lovers’ tiff, maybe you should get in touch with suzie at DDB in singapore – she can help plan your engagement and sort out your marriage in one session!
Comment by lauren December 20, 2007 @ 8:28 pmAre you saying that Susie was so upset with the article slip up that she’s resigned from BBH and gone to DDB already?
God adland is a fikcle industry!
Comment by Rob December 20, 2007 @ 8:49 pmI chose to ignore the Marcus / John conversation because I can’t work out what the hell is going on, but then I am a planner – so what would I know eh!
Comment by Rob December 20, 2007 @ 8:49 pmdo you never read my fucking blog Campbell?
Comment by Marcus December 20, 2007 @ 9:30 pmYou know I do – and you know I know you’re being all pissy because you’ve stopped smokin’ so now have the patience and temprement of some 3rd World Dictator whose just stopped smokin’ and consumed 18 cans of Red Bull!
