Please check out the Keep Calm campaign http://keepcalmcampaign.co.uk/ One man wants to copyright the phrase as his - I believe it belongs to the people so I have signed the petition. I blogged about my KC poster ages ago, [http://angalmond.blogspot.co.uk/2009/01/keep-calm-and-carry-on.html]before he started his legal fight, and my blogpost is part of the legal evidence for the opposition!!
I'm a little blown away by this whole scenario! Is he the man that created the phrase for the govt back in ww2? I'll definitely be checking out the links when I get home to my PC.

I love the original, but I want the "Keep Calm and Bake" one :) I would frame it and hang it in my kitchen!!
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting to know the origin of this! I've seen variations of it all over the place lately.
ReplyDeleteWow, I didn't even realize the history behind it.
ReplyDeleteI really like the beer and bacon ones also. Two of my favorite things in the life! xo
I like the original -- I actually do find it helpful in stressful situations. And the many spoofs are so much fun!
ReplyDeleteGreat post- these slogans certainly have been everywhere or the past few years.
