From that fast food chain who gave us Subservient Chicken comes another whopper of an ad campaign. The text reads: The BK Super Seven Incher - It'll blow your mind away. You can click on it if you want, but you probably already get the idea.
Coming across this ad reminded me of the article Advertising A-Z which was in our third issue of Salvo. As the article points out, there are many methods that ad companies employ for getting in our pockets, these just happen to be among the most base and insultingly obvious. And also, this kind of humor isn't exactly that hard to pull off.
Of course, by posting these ads for the advertisers and thereby propagating their exposure, maybe I've just played right into their hands . . .
