Walmart unveiled a “comprehensive brand refresh” Monday that the company says reflects its “evolution as a people-led, tech-powered omnichannel retailer.”
According to a news release, the updated branding will “better represent who Walmart is today.” The company said some of the key features of the brand refresh include a wordmark inspired by Sam Walton’s classic trucker hat and brought to life with a “modern, custom font that differentiates Walmart from the crowd.”
Additionally, the spark “exudes the energy of Walmart” and the color palette “leans on the retailer’s most recognizable tones and its heritage of blue, while ushering in new updates to keep the brand fresh,” the company said.
It’s like calling it “redecorating” when you repaint using eggshell instead of oyster.
Press release is a word salad. Did Kamala already get a private sector job already?
Digital or brick-and-mortor, it’s still the same old WallyWorld blue and snowflake
The Wallyworld rebrand? Ehh.
Like the fucking Bell Atlantic rebrand. When I joined C&P, my badge stated, C&P, A BELL ATLANTIC COMPANY. Actually I joined BACCSI. Bell Atlantic Communications and Construction Company.
But my Badge was C&P. With the faggotry of A BELL ATLANTIC COMPANY.
First off, C&P was NOT A BOC. It was a sovereign company what had its own operations and used WECO as its supplier of gear.
Then, of course, The C&P Company of Baltimore City became The C&P Company of Maryland in 1956. And on and on with Vaginga, and some other shitholes.
My point is Bell Atlantic was a slap to the face of C&P, and Verizon was a slap to the face of everybody on earth.
I was asked scores of times, “What the fuck is Bell Atlantic? I’m with C&P.”
And then this Verizon shit.
I had subscribers call poles, “telegraph poles”. I had subscribers with fucking party lines. I had subscribers with… hand wound ringers.
I used to answer the telephone, “C and P, 366”
Or when I was working Dupont, “Dupont”.
Or when I was working fucking Midtown, “Midtown”
Thank goodness they didn’t have Dylan Mulvaney unveil it.
@ Erik…

All that money spent for a different font?
I do all my own service on my diesel. Wallyworld sells my preferred motor oil at about half price. After I visit there to purchase it I immediately drive home and shower. I’m hardly joking.
