“When the government says, ‘We need to change things for your safety… that’s when I get worried’” Someone close to me said that. Why such a huge production for something like this? Fear? Or is it? A normal person would say, “Hey, fuck ‘em. Let them figure it out for themselves.”
Then nothing happens. That may be the real reason.
I call it the armadillo effect. The first time you learn what an armadillo is will lead to you seeing them, somewhere, somehow, all the time following. It’s now happened with this ridiculous Perfume Incident. It was followed by the next.
Today brings wind of number 3. It’s a doozy. Actually, it technically isn’t a perfume. It’s more of a bottled odor.
The last few days I have been attempting to clean and back-up stuff on my hard drive. I was amazed to find so much stuff I didn’t need. I also stumbled upon all kinds of videos that I have found and saved in the past year. Here’s 4 videos (click on their picture) that have to do with advertising. Again, I recommend you have a high speed connection for these.
The first is an ad that was aired in Europe for a type of cigar. All I can say is, when it comes to sexuality, the Europeans are more enlightened that those in the US. The FCC would have a field day with this one.
Hand Rolled – Watch a funny movie here
The second is a commercial for Starbucks. I found this advertisement to be really amusing. Having the band Survivor in it was a stroke of comedic genius.
The advertising industry is not known for its honesty. Well, this video goes about trying to make an honest representation of how the Ad industry works.
I feel great! When I first saw this video I laughed my ass off. It really took me by surprise. If only everything/anything could make us feel this way.
Enjoy!
