Lazy fucking ad-men

Seriously, is this the best you could come up with.

Even with your endless supplies of coffee, facial hair, Aeron chairs and white walls full of post-its… it’s lazy. Really fucking lazy. Let’s take a look at some personal highlights all following the same dire formula.

The song’s probably seen more sales on iTunes than your shitty chewy sweets. Who ever came away from watching this thinking, you know what I really fancy a Maoam.

Moustachioed rabbits in sunglasses, hat-wearing hedgehogs, and owls shooting lasers from their eyes… The ad, is part of a £6 million campaign to reposition Ribena as a drink for young adults rather than children, thanks to Tesco’s recent decision to ban drinks aimed at children that contain added sugar.

 

And even more shit…

Puppets playing techno and saying stupid things go some way to highlighting Wonga’s target demographic oh and the representative 1,261% APR… say no more.

 

How about this one?

We’re always looking for new and engaging ways to illustrate how ‘epic’ people feel when they save money at MoneySuperMarket. We’re hoping Gary will catch the public’s imagination as much as Dave and Colin before him, when he unleashes his inner ‘Epic Wolf’ and breaks into his iconic dance moves.
