Funny thing is that my degree is in Communications/Advertising and I miss Howard.

Greg,
I checked out the link...I think we are in trouble. They should have a multiple choice question sheet that permits you to vote before being allowed to push any buttons. |

Did anyone check out the link above? Maybe if I had titled it "Howard Stern on the election in Harlem"...or if I had said "these people should never be allowed to vote again"?
It's pretty good! |

Not an advertisement but an oxymoron none the less. One of my favorite sayings when I was in college and it's a Foot original:
" She is butt ugly but she's got a great a$$!" |

That's just plain scary, but I agree that they are playing on our emotions. Warm fuzzys are good, but they love fear.
The difference is it was your idea!

Good stuff Greg; I guess advertisers know an emotional connection is stronger than an intellectual decision.
Thinking about this, I know I own an old boat because it reminds me of my "good old days." And I'm hoping to help make some "good old days" for my family. Chuck |

Sometimes I wonder what advertisers are thinking; and in turn, what do they think of their taget audience. Here's a few jabs back at them...and my appologies to any member here who's in advertising!
From a blue bell ice cream ad: 1-"Tastes just like the good 'ol days" Just how did those days taste? Whose good 'ol days were they? Did it matter that some crappy days were mixed in? 2-"hand cranked taste" Is this extra crunchies from the gear mechanism, or is it much scarier than that? An oldie but goodie: "we'll pay off your car no matter how much you owe" They're definately after they financially responsible buyer, and they also sell bridges. From a sam adams ad: "at the peak of freshness" Maybe the engineers here can help me with this one? From a gold buying ad: "scrap gold" This is not only a classic oxymoron, but it's a growing problem! |
