i really dislike those but part of me is secretly glad that at least it's a hand-drawn illustration from someone with their own kinda gross-looking style. versus the equally gross but also retchingly saccharine mattress ads previously discussed.

Perhaps doesn't need to be said, but those Thinx period underwear ads that were controversial really are much more tasteful than a lot of the ads on the subway.

There's so much competition in the "we'll take care of minor inconvenience for you via an app" space.

I saw like two other dry-cleaning/laundry apps advertised just this week.

Couldn't snap a pic without the dude sitting in front of it thinking I was photographing him, but there's this new NPR ad that says something like "The NSA is listening, why not give them something more interesting to listen to?"
And I had the sensation that I'm pretty sure is the same feeling people get when they suspect the person trying to ingratiate himself is actually a narc.

Sometimes I feel like network ad execs give up before the show even comes out."That drama about the trial consultant based on young dr. phil that we're calling BULL? let's get a close-up of a stubbly round white guy from his sears headshots and tag it 'He'll Get You Off'. Research shows people love that."

Sort of along those lines (lazy TV ads), I keep wanting to get a shot of the Danson/Bell show called "The Good Place" with the tagline "Where everything is good" and then a sort of second tagline "What the Fork?"
so zany
― the last famous person you were surprised to discover was actually (man alive), Wednesday, 21 September 2016 04:20 (seven years ago) link
i watched the show last night, the conceit is that you can't curse in heaven so everyone says "what the fork" and "bullshirt" and "ash hole"
― thrusted pelvis-first back (ulysses), Wednesday, 21 September 2016 13:41 (seven years ago) link
that sounds...like something that would definitely be really funny for at least an entire season of a show...

hi, we're looking for a drawing of a crow standing on top of a decaying gravestone with a bite mark on the corner. the gravestone should read "R.I.P. / I THOUGHT IT WAS A FRECKLE." oh yeah, and please draw a zombie hand coming out of the ground just in front of the grave. thx

Gideon Oliver is my hero.
He adds, "The 'If you see something, say something' campaign uncritically promotes snitch culture as a dogwhistle for Islamophobes, racists, and other bigots to inflict the government in the service of their prejudices and agendas on people I love and care about, including people I have represented in prosecutions. Since the campaign’s inception, the NYPD in particular has targeted Muslim, South Asians, Arab Americans, and others, for surveillance, prosecutions, and other harms. With all due respect to them, NYPD Legal Bureau lawyers should not be held up as heroes. In their place, I respectfully nominate the Black Lives Matter and other protesters who keep taking the streets – especially now."

there are these sharper image ads that are so incredibly poor. they're just like clip-art of monkeys with bad monkey "puns".
like there's a monkey on a gift-wrapped box and it says "hey hey we're the monkeys" on the poster and then "sharper image".
its the laziest thing i've ever seen.
