Eng “The creative idea : the colors of the products on display in the supermarket form the rainbow flag (LGBT emblem) to celebrate the gay pride day. If it's a shameless copycat, and considering they tried to make it looks like a new idea, there's nothing to be proud of.”

Fr « L'idée est identique : Trier les rayons d'un supermarché de manière à ce que la couleur des produits rangés donnent l'illusion d'un drapeau arc-en-ciel pour célébrer la gay-pride. Quand je découvre de tels lookalikes, et de tels jeux de mots foireux "proud of your shelf", je me demande dans quel état j'erre et ma tête se gondole! »

    I have come up with this idea independently without having seen either one.

    @Mika I believe you totally. But now it’s easy to run a « prior art search » to see if an idea has already done before. What’s your excuse for not doing it?
