It's working already... I feel like snacking on a Kit Kat. I don't think I've had one since last Halloween.
Not on me at all...
American chocolate is always disgustingly sugary.
Well, yes. Cheap shit is cheap shit.
Why not Diabetes? When the next version comes out, Type 2 Diabetes.
I feel like im just about the only one that understand the whole naming scheme. Hint: Its alphabetical.
^ you're not the only one. you're missing the point. its just that KitKat is dumb brand name. shoulda stuck with keylimepie
Hint: everyone is making fun of the ridiculous naming scheme. KitKat is by far the worst one, hence the thread.
Yes, the advertising company called GOOGLE used a bad name. Names never was their strong suit. While all of you are making fun of the name they are making fun of you and finding ways to serve you kit kat ads because you keep saying kit kat on their browser!

It isn't that the name is "bad". It is that Google's choice of branding is about as shamelessly cynical as they come.
Google is saying to Android users- "HEY, we think your mindless idiots who will go out and buy any candy name we use, so we're going to profit and get a kickback this time....NOW GO BUY NESTLE'S SHIT YOU IDIOTS".
You need help.
Try me. What other reason is there for Google to not only use the "Kit Kat" brand with full Nestle corporate permissions...with full quid pro quo product branding between both corporate entities...but also deliberately keep all their Android employees in the dark about the decision?
Because they keep their employees in the dark all the time.
The reason is because they struck a deal with another company, which also follows their naming scheme.
I'm not sure how this is something terrible or forces android buyers to buy nestle's products...
I think most people are just pointing out that the cross marketing is about as classy as a dumpster blowjob.
Not sure why it has to bother anyone, names a name

Because people are people. Even the Call od Duty fans would blow a gasket if the next Call of Duty was called "CoD: Extreme Mountain Dew Edition".
They might as well... Bad example is bad.
You're not a CoD gamer, so I don't think you have any perspective on the example to speak of.

There are not enough roll eyes emoticons in the internet for this post...

What does this have to do with the title of a game?
Hopefully the next update is called "Chili Cheese Fritos".

Read the conversation and get back with me...
Start with your post...
So yeah the way the cross marketed the fuck out of CoD and mountain dew they may as well have named the game COD mountain dew edition.
Back on topic Its a fucking code name for an OS version. It means NOTHING, its something most people will never ever know. All they will know is the numbered version if they even know that much about their damn phone.
The nerd rage and disgust over it is laughable.
A) Its just an internal code name and only the nerdiest of nerds give 2 shits
B) Its google, you know the guys that shit all over your privacy to target you better ads yet THIS is what people get their panties in a bunch over??
C) Did i mention its a flipping code name and nobody gives a flying fuck?

I'm well aware of the content and context of my posts.
It is not a code name. http://www.android.com/kitkat/
They are even selling these Android shaped Kit Kats.
Cross marketing in commercials and cross marketing in the naming convention of a product are two different things. A commercial is self contained and can do whatever it wants. I don't have to see Mountain Dew ads every time CoD marketing pops up.
Say you were to watch a commercial where Captain Jack Sparrow sits down at a Burger King with an unsuspecting family, says something bizarre, then everyone laughs and chews their facefood.
Now say, instead of that scenario, the next Pirates of the Caribbean is actually called "Pirates of the Caribbean: Whoppers Ahoy!".
One is lame cross marketing, the other is whoredom.
Splitting hairs to demonize one company and defend the other when they are doing the same thing. Typical nerd rage bullshit.
