What if Modern Advertisers Created the Stop Sign?
 
This is hilarious, especially for anybody who has been in the creative field and dealt with corporate clients. I can SO identify.

It's a cute little video.

Pretty funny, reminds me of the Colin Mochrie "Truth in Advertising" thing from a few years back.

Jeezus, that creative guy needs to grow some balls, er, develop a better presentation.

But hey, if the client's dishing out big enough bucks...;)

What's really funny is that about 1/2 hour ago I was laughing at the new Sweet N' Low(trademark) commercial with Regis Philbin. The commercial basically says "Ok, so it doesn't taste like sugar. You know what, it's better than sugar." I even think he mentioned something about an 'extra zing'.

IMO, it was an instant parody. You couldn't come up with anything better with a room full of comedy writers.

I wonder if thats from the same group that did the commercials thats trying to clean up high fructose corn syrup's image as an additive. THEY bug me.

"Its from corn, so its natural."
