Pepsi apologise for their iPhone App to help men "score" with women

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBcQww5z8Uk...

Not sure exactly how serious this is supposed to be. Pepsi have produced an iPhone app that breaks women down into 24 set types and provides tips on how you can pull them. Not only are there facts which show how you might impress a certain type, there's also the means to brag about your success on Facebook on Twitter.

Want to offend half the population? There's an app for that!

UPDATE - Pepsi have apologised for causing any offence http://twitter.com/AMPwhatsnext/status/4814953081

This can't be real?! Oh Pepsi. Your product was always inferior, and you always did rely on pop culture and the latest trends to bump up your sales, but this? Ridiculous.

Interesting - that Pepsi have now apologised for this app with the hash tag #pepsifail - they're asking for what they should do next - what do you think of their response
