Personal Branding shit

I’ve been working closely with Marco the site guy, one of the country’s most acclaimed web designers (By ‘most acclaimed’ I actually mean ’someone who does nothing all day but smoke pot and ramble about how the government is screwing all of us), in conceptualizing and implementing a new logo to be used for this site as well as in my business cards and pretty much all my marketing collaterals.

After paying him a handsome amount of money(Lie. I gave him nothing but a small rotting piece of fruit and a high five), he came up with these studies:


After a heated debate on which color we should use on the final iteration, Marco and I got into a fist fight and came up with this:

When I asked him what the fuck the logo means he said:

Notice that the logo’s cursive? Cursive font give it that extra fluidity which alludes to your feminine side. It paints a perfect picture of you if I may say so myself. Note that I also used lowercase letters. I mean come on, is there a better representation of your manhood than these short, fat letters?

Asshole. Anyway, the final logo applied to the awesome vertigo layout by Brian Gardner looks like this:


What do you guys think? Please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks it sucks.
