    These comments are not intelligent enough for someone like me who is intelligent.

    “Contact seller if interested in the special combined deal: mug + commode on legs.”
    At least the guy (Thain/Thain’s secretary/Thain’s dog-walker) has a sense of humor.

    who actually like this shit? I like styrofoam. It keeps stuff cold for a long time, and you can just throw it away after.
    I can’t believe BAC employees actually stood for this. Seems like a pretty normal thing. If you give a rip about the environment, you can bring your own cup. Don’t go telling people they have to use your stupid cup. This is absurd.
    Next up at BAC. Wear your dirty shirt to work day so you can save the environment while saving money.

    @”I can’t believe BAC employees actually stood for this. ”
    what did you expect them to do, stage a revolt? they’re trying to keep their jobs.

    @7
    Spirit points + Spirt Mugs + required wearing of BAC Spirit Flare to work + (insert other insane addition to lowering the workplace morale) = why i can’t believe it.

    There are also standards for how thick the business cards can be – don’t want to use too much paper per card.

    Damn, so I guess BAC won’t go for my glass business cards with styrofoam covered edges (for protection).

    Maybe we can start a barter market for this crap. I have some Citi mugs, paper weights, and other corporate gifties…. I am willing to trade a Citi mug and 1 paperweight for a BAC cup….
