As something that was intended primarily for an audience within The LEGO
Company, I think it was entirely appropriate. There have been a lot of rabid
rants on this subject, and they’ll get ignored pretty quickly as soon as it’s
obvious what they are. There have been calm and rational explanations for why
it was a bad choice, and the first dozen or so might get some attention, but
after a while they just tend to melt together and dribble out of your ears.
Making it humorous practically guarantees lasting attention, and that’s what we
want. If management never realizes how much this affects us, they’ll never
correct it. Right now I suspect they’re thinking of it solely in terms of
building stuff strictly by the instructions, which goes against everything the
LEGO System stands for, and this looks like just the thing to shake them up a
bit.
