My cousin and I were talking about effective ad commercial campaigns the other day. Effective meaning it doesn't piss us off. Say like Miracle Whip and their mayonnaise revolution (It's brown but we're not going to back down!) and Tim Hortons and their obvious policy of political correctness.
Incidentally, if it were me, my group of friends in a car ordering au volant at Tim Hortons would include a heroin addict, a pregnant teenager, a deaf person and a Muslim woman decked out in her costume. She would of course just be sitting there doing nothing in the back seat.
I suppose it would beat those terrible, syrupy commercials fist fucking us with lame Canadian images. The best one was how a group of Canadian university kids in Scotland lined up early in the morning to get their fill of Hortons coffee. The narrator was lamenting not having enough of "Canada" in the highlands and lo and behold next thing he knew Tim Hortons was there serving coffee. Right.
Now. How to do it right. I've been meaning to post about this from the day I saw the Dos Equis commercial and their "Most interesting man in the world" campaign. I want to buy cheap Mexican beer on principle:
There are a bunch of these on youtube.
I don't always drink beer, but when I do it reminds me I have a nagging wife. Stay angry my friends.
