This May Be The Most Pointless Press Release We’ve Ever Seen

There’s news — and then there’s shit like this.

Pointless Press ReleasesWe’re not gonna lie — we’ve seen plenty of dumb press releases. Hell, we’ve even seen alien-quoting and Christ-quoting press releases. But most of them, despite their stupidity, at least have some discernable point.

That’s not the case with this gem that made its way onto our virtual desks today. The title really says it all:

“35% Have Written in Wet Cement, 40% Would Love to”

In case you’re still clamoring for information, the release continues:

We’ve all seen the evidence of a permanent finger-carved name or message in the footpath or driveway, but how many of us would actually confess to being a culprit. And, more importantly, would we secretly love to give it a try?

A recent survey commissioned for http://www.Concreters.com.au found that there’s a little bit of “cement artist” in most of us.

My friends at Concreters.com.au, I must congratulate you, as you have accomplished something: You’ve just made the U.S. government’s $423,000 study into why men don’t like wearing condoms look like groundbreaking research.

When you figure out why more guys don’t like sticking their schlongs into cement — we know you must be working on it — do let us know.
