Google brags to other companies about their permanent rainbow logo this Pride Month

This post is from the Satire category.

Each June, numerous companies temporarily change their logo to a rainbow-colored variant for Pride Month. One major exception to this seasonal change is Google; rather than deal with the hassle of annual temporary rebrands, this company has kept their chromatic logo year-round for ages. This year, they’ve decided to rub it in other big tech companies’ faces.

“Those other corporations don’t have the level of commitment we do. While they are only willing to let the full spectrum of colors on their logos burn in their eyes for a month at most, we’ve had the rainbow since 2009.”

Their head of marketing made specific mention of one of their, arguably, rivals: Apple.

“Now, I know we’re not the only tech company to have had a rainbow logo year-round; Apple had one for over a decade, but even they chickened out. It was too much for them, I guess - the cone cells in their eyes just couldn’t take it.”

The attentive reader might notice that the subject of logo changes has recently resurfaced at Google - just this year, the tech giant changed their main app logo from the long-standing letter ‘G’ with banded colors to the same letter with a continuous color spectrum.

“At Google, we’re not only holding out, but upping our game: in an effort to increase inclusion, we’ve changed our logo to include every visible color - not just a few primaries. Well, given enough pixels, that is.”

When asked about what other changes and actions the corporation would be doing in regards to Pride Month, the marketing head paused for a second, stuttered, and then got up and took off down a hallway, leaving our interviewer baffled.
