Me Play Joke!

So we were leaving Target today and I noticed a sign at their Pizza Hut/Taco Bell restaurant (which was called Food Avenue when I worked there). It had a familiar ring to it.

It was advertising to thirsty Target guests--yes, they call them guests ala Disney--that they now have more beverages to choose from. It read:

We've Got Pepsi
We've Got Coke


Not funny? It was to me.

It seems to me that the marketing geniuses may have borrowed a line from an old joke which contains:

Me Chinese
Me play joke
Me make pee pee
In your Coke


For more insight, check this out.

So either the line was an homage to this old joke, or my mind is that twisted.
