Office Manager Dove’s first job was re-covering vinyl restaurant seats. At age 9. You really need tiny fingers to get that vinyl stapled down correctly, you know!
Lead Copywriter Brent says his ideal pet is the pet he owns, his one and only dog Disco Sue. (Best. Dog. Name. Ever!)
AE Holly says her best bar trick is “moving a cherry from a snifter to a highball without touching it.” Sounds like somebody has invested in fancy barware …
Production Designer Lisa says that George Michael’s Careless Whispers tops her most-hated-song list. Yeah, but you can’t argue with “guilty feet ain’t got no rhythm.” That’s a timeless truth!
AE Angie has an unhealthy Kevin Bacon obsession. All that Bacon’s no good for your heart, Angie!
AE Kristine can karaoke a mean “Total Eclipse of the Heart.” Turn around, bright eyes!
Account Executive Jenna says she has a George Foreman Grill named “R2D2.” “These are not the droids you are looking for … but they ARE the low-fat menu options you are looking for.”
Copywriter Kristin has two cats named Orange Cranberry Pepper Muffin and Rip Van Winks. Great, now I have a Cuteness Headache.
Office Manager Dove has made a New Year deal with herself—trading sit-ups for pedicures. Flat abs and pretty paws—it’s a win/win!
We’ve got to say, Senior Account Executive Holly’s has chosen a first-rate name for her dog Aquaman. Even if Aquaman is a third-rate superhero.
VP of Innovation Pagogh says he used to have a major thing for Jo from The Facts of Life. He must not have heard those hermaphrodite rumors.
Senior Copywriter Matt Jones never met a three-legged dog he didn’t like. But his favorite was named Isosceles.
Director of Copywriting Mason says he was voted “Most likely to spend time at the Theodore Kaczynski Home for the Emotionally Disturbed” in high school. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, “Best Smile.”
Senior Copywriter Julai says her best-ever Halloween costume was Flowers in the Attic. They don’t make ‘em like V.C. Andrews anymore!
Senior Account Executive Christina spent Halloween 2009 dressed as Tinkerbell—and learned why Tink flies around instead of walks. Uncomfy high heels plus tons of walking equals one cussin’ fairy.
Designer Cong says her worst-ever haircut was a mommy-made asymmetrical bang. That’s when she took design into her own hands.
Senior Designer Jeff says that he was once knocked out by an eleven-year-old girl. He wants you to know that he was also eleven at the time, but imagine the scene any way you wish.
Senior Account Executive Stephanie says she was voted “Shortest” and “Second-Smartest” by her graduating high school class. But she really hasn’t let it slow her down in life!
Designer Chris says if he could erase any song from his eternal memory, it would be Barbie Girl by Aqua. Let’s have it again, just one more time!!!
Vice President of Creative Services George has resolved to say “Hello!” to five strangers per week. Which should net him about eight stalkers this year.
Senior Interactive Developer Ben says his ideal pet is a chimera. Which is a mythical beast that’s part snake, part lion, part goat, and ALL WOMAN.
Director of Copywriting Mason says his fave Halloween/Ren Fest/Friday night costume is still his Three Musketeers rig. The Alexander Dumas creation, not the candy bar—duh!
Copywriter Jess Kline dressed as a Whataburger employee one year—complete with “liberated” tray, table numbers, and condiments. Before you ask, yes, I want fries with that!
Lead Copywriter Julianna says her ideal pet is “a shark riding on an elephant’s back, just trampling and eating everything they see.” Does Petco have a training class for that?
Lead Copywriter Brent has resolved to execute a one-two punch this year—start smoking to lose weight.
Account Manager Emily says she was her high school’s “Biggest Gossip.” I wouldn’t trust her as far as I can throw her, and I’m a pretty good thrower!
Administrative Assistant Laura says that when given a Star Wars choice, it’s the original 1977 version all the way. Really, nothing beats the classics.
Head of Copywriting Mason Hart has breakfast every morning with a tiny aquatic frog named “Doggy.”
Lead Copywriter Julianna once owned a golden retriever named Sandy who “pooped a rainbow after eating several colorful smoke bombs at New Years.” Festive!
Production Design Manager Doug says he was Memorial High School’s best artist, specializing in the female form. So … not much has changed.
Production Designer Casey says she and her sister got all punked out one Halloween—if there’s anything cuter than two baby punks, I don’t even want to know about it.
Account Executive Holly says she never, ever needs to hear Chumbawumba’s Tubthumper again. Really? I find its message uplifting! And its groove infectious!
Business Development exec Mark Williams doesn’t understand why Baby New Year “gets to run around in nothing but his underwear and top hat while the rest of us have to wear pants and what not.”
Account Manager Emily says the best part of being grown up is no homework. Except she does take work home with her sometimes.
Senior Copywriter Matt has resolved to stop biting other peoples’ nails. Guess we can all take our gloves off.
Girl-on-the-spot in Strategy, Jill, says she’s currently reading the side of a Guinness can. Odd, since she’s AT HER DESK.
Copywriter Brent says he can control a foosball with his mind. Recent office foosball scores disagree.
Vice President of Digital Strategy Scott says that if his life was a TV show, it’d be The Dukes of Hazard. But that’s probably just because the doors of his car are rusted shut.
Production Design Manager Doug says that if his life was a TV show, it’d be Mad Men. Oh, the siren song of in-office drinking and tailored suits—we all hear it, Doug!
Senior Account Strategist Jill says she was the only kid at her school dressed as the Wendy’s “Where’s The Beef” lady for Halloween. And thus, a career in advertising is born.
Copywriter Jess Kline says “I would rather have Mike Tyson slowly gnaw off my ear than have to listen to Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson (or Alien Aunt Farm).”
Production Designer Casey used to have a dog named after Schlitz beer. But could it FETCH you a beer?
Senior Flash Designer Aron has no beef with lunchmeat. Except Oscar Meyer. “Oscar Meyer … Hell No!” would make a great bumper sticker.
Digital Services Manager Whitney is desperate to obtain a Petite Lap Giraffe. Just as soon as they become legal. And real.
Office Manager Dove has been both a flapper and Chiquita Banana for Halloween. If you want to learn to Charleston with a fruit basket on your head, she’s your girl.
Nine out of ten Adceterans vote yes on lunchmeat. What can we say, we love to nom on sandwiches around here!
Vice President of Innovation Pagogh says the first thing he bought was either Big League Chew or candy cigarettes. Boy, those were the days! When men were men and kids were … men.
Managing Creative Director Rowan says the first thing he ever purchased was this. Mister Mister and Dionne Warwick, together at last!
Creative Director Arick likes to get Super Freaky (yeahhhh) on Halloween. And pretty much any other day of the year.
VP of Innovation Pagogh has a pet toad his son grew from “a tadpole found in a gutter after a rainstorm.” So THAT’S where I left it!
Account Manager Angie wants her very own pet unicorn. She’ll have to tie Princess Sparkles to the bike rack during the day, I’m afraid—unicorns are outdoor pets.
Lead Copywriter Brent once dressed as Seussian superstar “Thing 2”—complete with real, live goldfish. That’s the kind of attention to detail we bring to the table, folks.
Our leader is a reader. Right now, Kristy’s tackling Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. Bet THAT Lincoln doesn’t have much time for the theatre.
Senior Marketing Strategist Bill says his craziest pet name ever was “Ralph Archimedes Gopee,” beagle extraordinaire.
Copywriter Julianna loves the commercial for Keebler Elvin Loaves “Just like mom used to make … only smaller!”
Mark, Business Development newbie, says his super power is “making women over 65 feel 18.” So stop by our office for some of that.
Mark, Business Development newbie, says he identifies with Lucky Smurf. Because they are both gamblin’ men, and both blue. Except Mark.
When Sr. Account Strategist Jill was a child, she wanted to be “a veterinarian married to bologna.” Is that even legal NOW?
Senior Digital Account Executive Lily spent a memorable Halloween dressed as Mr. Peanut—in a costume she couldn’t easily get out of. Guess she was Mr. Can’t-pee-nut. Ha, get it? Get it?
Account Manager Kristine says she’d love to have a pet dolphin. If you put it in a kiddie pool in the living room, I bet it’d be a real conversation starter! Until its inevitable decline in health, that is.
Creative Director Rowan has a cat named Sushi. No, he does not pick her up with chopsticks.
Senior Account Strategist Jill says that in high school, people made fun of her crooked finger. I think it’s cute! It’s like she’s always pointing “That way!”
First thing Copywriter Brent ever bought himself? Kenny Rogers’ Greatest Hits Volume 2. That’s the one with Elvira on it. Oom-papa-mow-mow.
Writing department head Mason says his worst-ever haircut was a ponytail. At least it wasn’t a SIDE ponytail.
Senior Copywriter Matt says his elementary school bully was “a little red-headed kid … with fangs!”
VP of Digital Strategy Scott wanted to be a dinosaur when he grew up. What would be on a dinosaur’s resumé, exactly?
As a child, copywriter Jess wanted to be a decorator to the stars. By stars, we mean The Spice Girls.
Three out of seven copywriters agree: The Big Lebowski is truly the pinnacle of man’s cinematic achievement. That’s why they don’t roll on shabbas.
Senior Flash Developer Darith says the best part of being a grown-up is owning a gun, skydiving, and voting. All at the same time, Darith?
Account Executive Jenna once owned a beta fish named Barry Manilow—he even accompanied her on plane trips in a Big Gulp cup with lid and straw!
Account Executive Jessica says her resolution is to floss every day. (Even the weekends? And holidays? And TUESDAYS?!)
Senior Account Executive Melanie says she was voted “Most Likely to Finish Your Leftovers” in high school. So that’s where my leftover enchiladas went! THEY WERE LABELED, MELANIE.
Head of Copywriting Mason resolved to lose 10% of his body weight last year, and did so. If he keeps that up, he’ll be very, very tiny by 2030.
Copywriter Jess Kline says “I would rather have Mike Tyson slowly gnaw off my ear than have to listen to Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson (or Alien Aunt Farm).”
Designer Casey is loving her DIGITAL oven. Tell us, Casey, what do they bake IN THE FUTURE??!
Copywriter Kristin says if she could choose any pet, it’d be Mark Wahlberg. Wayyyyy better than a basket of kittens, Kristin.
Senior Copywriter Julai has resolved to embrace the philosophy of Bill Murray this year. Except with better skin. And less money.
What record would AE Kelly take to a desert island? “Swimming world record.” (Insert cymbal crash here.)
Office Manager Dove says that her ideal pet would be a leopard. Because A, they’re cute. And B, it would function as a built-in security system. Plus, did I mention that they’re cute?
Recent surveys show that most Adceterans’ perfect days involve non-washing/non-brushing of teeth. Y’all are gross.
Senior Flash Developer Darith says he was his high school’s “President three years running, prom king, wittiest, and best all around.” I’m scratching him off my ballot for “Most Modest.”
