The 2008 crash is probably the most serious economic crisis we have faced after the Great Depression. Stock markets from around the world fell as much as 20% in a single week, dozens of banks either failed or were rescued by government and private instutitions, and companies started laying off employees as a consequence of the reduced demand.
We know how we entered into the crisis, but we don’t how, when, or how we will be getting out of it. Considering that issue, we decided to our little bit to help cheer everyone up by redoing the logos of some renowned companies …. after the crisis.
Bonus Logo
While Apple is probably one of the more stable companies in our economy, with a robust and diverse set of high-demand products… we just couldn’t resist this one.

I like all the bites in the Apple, haha.
Well done, nice interpretations!
Wow these logos are really funny I think I like the bonus apple logo the best.
yeah i loved the apple too!..
nice collections! nike is cute too!
Pure creative genius!
The Ferrari one says it all: The Clomping Horse.
Used to work at Best Buy’s corporate offices, and we always had to check to make sure no one wrote ‘Best But’, as the T is right next to the Y on the keyboard.
We used to make fun of Circuit City, but now there is no Circuit City to make fun of. Its ok, RadioShack will always be the easiest name to trash, and they are still around, somehow.
Oddly, this reminds me of the early rave scene, where defacing corporate logos was a key part of the sub-culture and its anti-corporate, anti-establishment, anti-evil, pro-fun, pro-youth, pro-underdog stance.
fun parody … very humorous!
ugh lern2kern
Es bueno reirse de las situaciones difíciles!!
Nice! Apple’s stocks have lost half of their value so it really deserves that logo.
These are far funnier than most of them “funny photoshop” websites. Apart from the “fail” one, which may have been funny a couple years ago.
I do believe the yahoo one should say “Yawho?”
circuit “shitty”,… anyone, anyone?
Good job !!
Ironic that Citi ditched the umbrella logo in the beginning of the year, selling it back to Travelers Insurance for millions. Even more ironic was the slogan “You’re better off under the umbrella”- Citi obviously was; since casting previous CEO Weill’s pet logo aside last spring, it’s been a fast downhill slide.
Great logos! These are very good logo design.
Awesome, the Apple one really make sense
Hay que saberse reír de todo un poco, y por qué no, de Apple también xD
You guys are awesome, it really made me laugh.
Awesome. I just added this to my own romanian blog. |Hope you don’t mind. We’re really in the crysis

Xerox FTW!… The toner cartridge has just come to an end!… Money to replace it?… N…No money?

Really funny logos
The Xerox logo is the most subtle.. out of ink, lol
Windows Vista ———> Losedows Blind

великолепно
good thoughts, good work
CTRL + ALT + DELL

Awsome !
The Best Buy logo seems characteristic of most stores at the mall these days. While Christmas shopping, I got the distinct feel that stores were begging for my money.
It’s a piese of shit!
Extremely funny – congratulations for the idea!
hello from Ukraine. These are pretty fun
Brilliant!
i dont get the 2M one =S
Fantastic post. I love how some of the crisis parodies build off of the brand names while others cleverly tweak the logo!
Pretty nice. Dell should have been “Dole” though. (Not the pineapple, of course.)
Nice. You forgot Short-Circuit City though.
what happened to:
shitigroup ?
How appropriate & creative. I love the apple logo, and agree with you about its products. From a diehard Mac user.
Best Buy, yahoo and Apple, the best
Great job! I also liked the “Sorry Ericson” logo
superb!!! damm funny! loved xerox and apple
mmmmmm fine – Ferrari:)))))
I like the DELL logo. very subtle
Very nice “Xerox”
Top work
Maybe the Yahoo one should be ‘Boohoo’?
Its funny………but does tell us something…
Well done!
they’re good!
FERRARI
Wow, I just stumbled upon this site. Very nice! I like the ferrari logo
Ummmm 3m is gonna be pretty strong no matter what.Other logos funny,but be relevant.
I like the 2M logo the best. We are seeing a lot of the world’s most familar brands crumble. And the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
Great job!..but is this the best you can do?
Let us learn some more!!
Woah this is awesome
That sort of relfects the times we’re in: age of crap and failing brands/products. Anyway, great logos!
LG Life´s Tough jaja!Excelente!

I didn’t see Microsoft logo. How about it?
Horrible ;o)

hy, as a German(thats also not funny at the moment) and little bit overqualified, I am happy to see your handling of the real efforts of capitalism. Nice !
Отлично!
Fiasco systems summerize all
“Fail” was by far my favorite. Thanks for giving me a smile during these grim economic times.
You need to be over active to think like that. Well said bro.
It’s nice to have something to laugh at during this extremely stressful time. Thanks!

una boludes
too little of authors’ fantasy, but funny enough. Especiall about 3M)))
No doubt BadYear is the best
Absolutely fabulous! Loved the “new” 2M logo!
I just found this via Stumble Upon – great stuff! Thanks for the laugh. I hope you do some more soon.

Aquí en España podríamos hacer algo similar con los Logos de unas cuantas entidades financieras, constructoras e inmobiliarias.
Ya solo hace falta esperar a la “subprime nacional”, que existe aunque se quiera obviar, reviente y empiecen a caer lo que se nos vendía como grandes empresas.
Buenísimo.
nice stuff. keep up good work!
Aqui puede publicar todas esos logotipos tan lindos un saludo
Thanks for the laugh the logos are great.
“Fail” indeed. Well played!
Wonderful post at this wonderful situation. Nice creativity
I love these logo, it’s funny !

((
smart idea!!!!!!!!!!nice.
Nice logos. They deserve everything they have coming.
Hilarious. Loved the Ford, Ferrari, and Apple logos. The little mortgage crisis comic at the end was pretty funny too. Nice work!
apple很可爱！

Haha, this is hilarious. I’ll link it in my blog. Unfortunately, of the companies on the list is where I’m working. But that is reality.
Great set of logos, man! I think the LG: Life’s Tough is my favorite.
Dude, those logos are pure genius.

These are very good logo design! Great job
Xerox is the best!

LOL, these parodies were great. My favorites were the Dow Jones and Best Buy parodies. The mortgage cartoon was so perfect as well!
As a former employee of a mortgage processing company, the Sub Prime Primer Comic rang true. To funny!
