Advertising Scans for Friday

[substitute]

A sausage company attacks vegetarianism and commits unintentional goatse, and the makers of a sleep drug appear to be selling a powerful hallucinogen. It's all behind the cut!

How do you know it was an unintentional goatse?

I love those dreams ads. The ones on TV are funny. Laughingly.

Another option was "pissed-off vegetarian art director," which I sorta like too.

The goatse in such close proximity to the girl with the chili pepper(?) in her mouth make a great juxtaposition. Bonus points for "more party ideas than you can shake a meat stick at."

When I first saw those ads, I assumed the drug was an anti-pyschotic... They miss you because you're NOT BUGFUCK NO MORE. But no, it's merely a sleeping pill. bah.

I'm sure it comes as no surprise that the meat stick ad infuriates me. :)
Need a chess playing beaver now.

I think they were trying for "edgy, funny, irreverent" and just ended up with "asshole." Which is probably also what the sausages contain.

I tend to think that more.

Beef Bites!

It's this sort of thing that leads people to tell their vegetarian friends that something is vegetarian because, "You can just eat around the meat." As a vegetarian, I gotta say, they can just keep their damn party.

I don't usually watch commercials, but the chess playing beaver was a splendid exception. Thankfully, I don't remember what product they were selling, so I can continue to pretend that my brain is still my own.

Horrors of food

What next, a pork chop with, in the background,
a covetous Jew with a speech bubble saying:
"oy, I wish I could eat that porkchop!" ?

Such a publicity stunt, nu!

The beaver and Lincoln are part of a Rozerem ad campaign entitled "Your dreams miss you"

I think they were trying for "edgy, funny, irreverent" and just ended up with "asshole."
Yet again.

Living, as I do, in the "Capital of Encased Meat," I feel highly unqualified to comment on this post.

I just watered myself.
