I'm concerned that this isn't a joke. Or is it?



Definitely jokes.

I wasn't totally sure until I saw this: http://www.groupon.com/pages/kidz-club-games


    > Unscramble these mixed-up words:

    >    cilhd

    >    entcered

    >    mraketing


Now that was funny.


I think someone was ordered to come up with these characters as punishment for screwing up something else.


I don't think it is - Its linked at the top of http://www.groupon.com/occasions, which can be gotten to from their normal flow.

This is totally real.


I'd guess it went something like this:

Manager: "We need a kids club thing, like Burger King." Designers: "That's lame, let's make it a joke." Manager: "Excellent, go live with it."
