New England Coffee is not cool


New England Coffee ad(d)s to the pre-game congestion in Kenmore Square buying time on a fuel-guzzling, carbon-spewing billboard truck.

What is it with cool drink vendors and hating-on-the-environment? At least New England Coffee doesn't pretend to be a green company.

E-mail them at and suggest that they try some less annoying ad campaign. Like pop-unders or tele-marketing.

Those things enrage me. What a waste.

Cold drinks tend to be fancy drinks, and fancy drinks have a higher margin than hot coffee does. Longer, hotter summers mean more cold drink sales.

I like this site...

...but this isn't newsworthy.

Why don't they use bicycles?

Bicycle can pull trailers, too.

Is it really?

Is this really a mobile billboard? It looks like a box truck with signage panels. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the "I drive a bio-fuel hybrid you Hummer-sucking assclown" debate as much as the next guy but I'm not sure this case is deserving of such caffeine & carbon fueled rage.

REVISED: I just looked into this, and yes they are just mobile ad trucks. I always thought the box trucks were also hauling product. Okay, cue the anger!

Go back to cambridge you hippies!

Yes, lets ignore the homeless and crime in Kenmore square and get upset over a truck! You crying bleeding hearts make me want to vomit all over your birkinstocks!

Groe up.

Hey, it's that guy!
