May 27 2009Avery Labels In Cahoots With Tyler Durden?

tyler durden labels.jpg

This is a real package of Avery shipping labels and, as you can see, they've been sending packages to Tyler Durden. It's not Photohaxored either because you can see another picture at their official product site. So, apparently somebody at Avery has a sense of humor (and a bong). Or is going to help bomb a bunch of credit card companies. Quick, somebody call the FBI! *checking credit card balance* Cancel that -- let's see how this plays out.

oooo...eerie conspiracy.....


or not

@1 yes you're a loser

Everyone's in touch with tyler durden, it's just how you handle his presence. I let him out to run around all the time & even post on geekologie under my name

The first rule of Avery Labels is that you do not talk about Avery Labels...

the geekier way to be first wouldn't be make bot post it?

Their name is Avery Labels
Their name is Avery Labels
Their name is Avery Labels
Their name is Avery Labels
Their name is Avery Labels...

~420~

...actually, I noticed this in Staples a few weeks ago, and I thought, "You know, the $25 grand-a-year graphics designers who actually design product packaging are so much cooler than the douchebag, clueless corporate dicks who get six-figures to 'sign off' on the designs." And I smiled. I can't wait 'til the lawsuits begin.

that's my brute adress .. i am all proud of it !!

frist!!1!

my name is brendan and i like men

FAKE!!!!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.

This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where MAx was put into the witness protection program and relocated to Arizona. He didn't like that the food sucked and the people were boring, but then he started an organized crime ring, and ended up building a little league field.

I am Jack's letter to nana.

school is definitely out today

I honestly don't know who tyler durden is....

They are also apparently connected to Matt White somehow. Possibly they're the often talked about "label" who signed him...more investigation into this matter is needed ...I so feel like Geraldo right now.

No one's bothered to mention that the address number is 420?

What?!? How did I miss tyler durden??? I know who that is. Greatest movie ever. (one of them)

Amazing, they even added "Paper street" on it, definitely there is some geek in charge there

I showed this to someone in the office a while back, and all I got was a blank stare...I lent him the movie and recommended the novel the next day.

I am jacks lack of surprise, it was only a matter of time before they caught on to us, down with man! power to the people!

this isn't the first time this has happened. The forward of the current paperback edition of Fight Club mentions it happening years ago.

Yep, this pretty much rules.

::eyes the clock, cursing the fact that she has to give finals today::

Sweet. I've earned the coveted "f1rst loser" award. YES, my life is complete I can die happily. Where are my 72 virgins? Oh wait I'm in Socal.. there aren't any. QQ

Want more adresses to write fun letters to?

Hit Larger View and zoom in for clear sight of adresses

That is pretty awesome... aside from the fact that it's 1537 Paper Street. Not 420.

@ 27 420 is the police code for marijuana

What the, now that is funny. Great post .......Gdub

Bitchin!

I hate to be "that guy" but this is old. Avery has been doing this Fight Club first came out.

One example from 2006: http://www.chrisharding.net/log/2006/12/17_fight-club-paper-products/

One example from 2004: http://www.seanbonner.com/blog/archives/000612.php

Hard to see, but Hewlett Packard has been pimping their T-shirt transfers with "Camp Crystal Lake" examples on the front for years. Why are all the t-shirt companies so deranged?

Maybe there's somebody working at Avery whose name really is Tyler Durden.The free publicity is on ours!

420 PAPER STREET= joint papers

Bahaaahaha!!!! That's awesome!! I spent a summer working at Staples in 2004 and I noticed this then. Glad to see that the Staples-chumps still haven't caught on... :)

Look at yourselves.

EPIC WIN.

FAKE!!!!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.

This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where MAx sent his imaginary friend to go kick Bobby Flay's ass because his voice was so annoying.

Anywho. This is backwards you silly geekologie writer - you. I highly suggest you don't follow biggity2bit's leads anymore. You see Chuck PalIcantspellorrememberhislastname got the name Tyler Durden FROM the Avery labels. It's not the other way around you see; ass-backwards like the Face-To-Face Tandem Bike without the eye sex. So everyone I am currently announcing that you can quit thinking that was cool and go take glow-in-the-dark shots off a sword in some back alley. Or go check out some side boob on a sister site. Hmmm . . . the choices

Hey wait a minute whats going on here?? Somebody is cheating

@ 15 Since no one will tell you. Go rent "Fight Club".

Those labels use to say Meg Griffin... but I guess no one noticed but me...

Chuck Palahniuk talks about that in the second edition of Fight Club released a year after the movie. He says that he finds Tyler Durden's name being used for lots of office product ads.

Actually, from what i remember, Chuck took the info from a box of labels and made the character from that name and address.

i just found this at my office! i had to do a triple take before i freaked out.

@15 words cannot descibe how much you fail
go watch fight club before take your balls, we'll send one to the new york times and one to the l.a. times.
and dont tak about it....BALL CHECK!

Gotta love that sense of humor. If your job is to design the box art for LABELS, then I don't blame you for making the day a little brighter.
