Xanga’s crying for attention again; damn thing, it’s worse than a child.
I saw an amazingly well thought-out commercial today. It was a shoe commercial with some idiot drinking sour milk from a shoe (I thought his name was Steve-O, but I could swear that he died the day Jackass was finally cancelled). Then he went offscreen and puked, and came back to talk about how cool the shoe is.
Now there’s a brilliant marketing strategy; I’d love to meet the guy who came up with that one.
| Executive1: “ | How can we best affiliate our shoes with our target teenage-demographic?” |
| Executive2: “ | Well.. we could associate our shoes with vomit and expired dairy-products.” |
| Executive3: “ | And then we could hire one of those recognizable mock-celebrities desperate for attention and of questionable intelligence for practically nothing!” |
| Executive1: “ | Genius! Kids nowadays love vomit and washed-up hacks! I knew there was a reason you’re paid enough to feed an entire third-world country for a month.” |
Now there’s a role model for children.
[edit] I forgot to check “update time stamp to current date” – now it really *has* been two weeks, completely ruining the whole “feeding” analogy.
Grr.
