May 12, 5:52pm: Wow, can you believe what Peggy did? I would find it plausible, but then again, I would find anything plausible, since I haven't watched Mad Men Episode 606 yet. I have heard rumors, though, of another loss in character continuity. Characters can evolve, but not like Peggy's apparently done. Writers these days… Anyway, I […]

Wheeler, an amateur hockey player, is played by Edmonton Oilers forward Jordan Eberle. The saga details the true story of Eberle…er, Wheeler, forgetting his gear before a big game. Hours […]

Have you ever tried Wodka Vodka? No? Neither have we. Despite the fact we've never tried their product, we can't resist discussing their marketing campaign which reached a whole new level with this sign seen in Chicago Lake Liquors, located in Minneapolis, Minnesota (We know, it confused us too). The photo of this sign attracted […]

Brace yourself – the marketing campaign for the newest installment of the Call of Duty series has officially started. The new title, simply labeled Call of Duty: Ghosts, isn't scheduled to be released until November. Despite that date sitting roughly six months away, the marketing machine fueled by Activision and Infinity Ward is already up […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZfuxNSu1EcQ?rel=0 UPDATE: Mountain Dew appears to be trying to hide all traces of this ad, pulling it and filing copyright claims against people that have uploaded it on YouTube. We'll try to keep it up as long as we can. What are you doing, Mountain Dew? What happened to the days of meatheads doing ridiculous […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=hGEIQ5pR6XU?rel=0 Patrick Willis isn't happy with you. When you were asked what you'd like your "upgraded experience" to be from Visa Signature, he noticed you didn't mention anything about strength training with Patrick Willis. Be warned – Willis might come knocking at your door, asking why you made such a decision. In an effort to […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ehUhYiXoQZc?rel=0 Häagen-Dazs apparently makes gelato now and it's apparently the company's "Italian masterpiece." I haven't tried the gelato yet, but the commercial they made is a crime against humanity. So many things wrong: The cheesy background music. Are we watching an opera, or a commercial? The angry girlfriend breaking things. Also the angry, barefoot, cooking […]
This amazing local ad comes our way from Triad Junk Removal in North Carolina as they found a way to take the biggest viral hit in the world and apply it to taking trash out of people's homes. From the spinning garbage bags to the god-awful dancing by the happy couple after their garage is […]

9:45pm: It's been a special weekend for me. Saturday, my beautiful bride and I married each other. Today, we further our new marriage through America's best celebration of fidelity: Mad Men (note: my wife came up with that line.) Don Draper continues to be unfaithful, just as in previous years. In his personal life, Don has used infidelity […]

Kraft's online banner ad for what I can only assume is their Italian dressing is … interesting. First of all – hot, shirtless dude is not an original way to sell anything. We've been doing this forever. Second of all, when you "click me" you are taken to a site allowing you to send "zestygrams." […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=bpopOOLLLFE?rel=0 Hyundai should be ashamed. A commercial linked to the car manufacturer has leaked on to the Internet and it depicts a failed suicide attempt while promoting their clean emissions engine. Huffington Post has noted that it's unclear whether Hyundai approved or actually intended to air this ad that apparently came from the advertising agency Innocean. Whether or […]

The New York Times allowed an online ad depicting a man on the ground with a bloody face to appear next to coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing. The ad appeared next to coverage highlighting the one-week anniversary of the bombing. Not surprisingly, the placement and timing of the ad immediately received complaints. The ad […]

There are times where a commercial does all of the talking for us. This is one of those amazing times. Honestly, what more can we say about Tony Siragusa pitching "shields" and "guards" for men that evidently drip or leak all over their pants? "Leak a little? Guard your manhood." That's gold. You can also […]
