Hot take: #Microsoft should’ve had the balls to just revive #Clippy instead of introducing #Mico.

Now everyone’s laughing that it’s Clippy 2.0 anyway, but if MS had been the ones calling it Clippy, they would’ve been able to preempt the fun making. And they could’ve spinned it by saying the original Clippy was just ahead of its time and now they have the tech to make it good.

It would’ve shown confidence instead of their usual confusing messaging that no one can keep up with.
