Advertisers Like Me, and I Like Them.

I have long since decided that I am probably the number one person most susceptible to advertising.  I have never met an email newsletter I didn’t want to sign up for, and I tend to assume that the advertisers are doing me some sort of service by keeping me up to date with the latest sales and tips.  I pretty much always do whatever it is the ad wants me to do.  If it says, “click here!”  I click there.  If it tells me to buy 2 and I will get a 3rd free?  I buy 2 (and get a third free!)  How exciting!

Blake thinks this tendency is hilarious.  He loves to warn me that I am doing just what is expected of me, but you know what?  I don’t care!  I like receiving Martha Stewart’s Meal of the Day!  Even though I never make it!

All this being said – I have to admit that this ad:

I am an especially creepy ad.  Apparently, I am supposed to be selling toothpaste, but really I just want to creep people out.

will never ever ever in one million years, make me buy toothpaste!  What is going on in her mouth?  There is some weird tongue thing hanging out in there.  It is probably the creepiest advertising I have ever seen besides the supremely scary Burger King King who has a plastic face and tries to kill me in my dreams.

    This is a disgusting billboard. What pedophile sick-o created this twisted ad? I don’t even see any foods in the picture so I have no idea which one creates acid erosion. BTW, I love The Tudors and can’t wait for the new season; Dexter too!
