It's all insidious and despicable none-the-less.

Not that this is a very good example to perhaps pursue this line of attack (the new logo just simply smacked of fucking hackery) but the fact that brands have to back pedal to the crowd is again a reality that arbiters of (in this case very questionable) taste and aesthetics are being made to swallow.

Long live fucking focus groups.

This change makes sense to me. The previous logo is so dull and corporate and civilized. That sounds completely opposite of someone who would be drinking PEPSI MUTHAFUCKIN MAX, BRO. WOOOOOOO! BOOM! EXPLODE!

a few of my friends have adapted the new gap logo as their facebook avatar but with a funny word in place of "gap" and the blue block is behind it.

the logo isn't good enough to be a cultural phenomenon, but i guess it's bad enough.
