The Best and Worst of Advertising
« on: February 19, 2011, 10:41:18 pm »
Some commercials are just so good (or so unbelievably bad) that they deserve a place in the Commercial Hall of Fame. Unfortunately that doesn't exist, so we'll have to stick to YouTube for now. Let's discuss our favorites here!

This is a continuation of a rather egregious derail of another thread.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

Introducing the most exciting and action packed political ad in the history of advertisement and/or politics!

Yes, they actually ran that ad.
*Currently having it play in another tab*
Well I feel like I'm missing nothing.

That must be the longest time a politician has gone without lying in an advertisement.

I... what?
Not exactly a great advert, but it's funny to see how seriously youtube takes it.  Wait a second...

I find it hilarious how people still believe in human caused global warming. I disproved it pretty easily for a thesis for my physics degree. We humans think we are so important that we can alter nature. The truth is FAR from this.
Uh... huh.
