Could you please rat yourself out?
Two weeks ago, we wrote about the Great Pointed Archer
Society, which says it wants people not only to like rats
better but to start referring to them as great pointed archers. (It’s a stretch,
especially when one is mostly used to seeing rats zip
amid the muck and garbage on the subway tracks—with a knack for avoiding the
third rail that is positively uncanny.) AdFreak, like the people at the museum
of hoaxes, believes the Society is a front for a teaser campaign—and apparently
one that just keeps on teasing. Yesterday we received an e-mail from the Society—the
same one that had been e-mailed to a colleague two weeks ago—and we came to the
following conclusion: We’re really tired of this. Reveal who you are, or …
have you ever seen the movie Ben?
