Where dreams become heart attacks

You know the Nike Air Max Burger from a while ago but you don’t know something called “Schnitzels and things”, which consists of 1 veal, 1 pork and 2 chicken schnitzels, layered with 4 hash browns, 10 rashers of bacon and mozzarella, or a triple decker pizza “cake” (1 ham, 1 sausage, 1 pepperoni) layered with boneless buffalo chicken wings, topped with a ranch and buffalo sauce drizzle, and sprinkled with a confetti of real bacon bits. Or The Melt Challenge (you don’t want to know what this is, believe me.)
Seriously, check out Thisiswhyyourefat.com, a site truly dedicated to becoming obese in the most creative - and sometimes fatal - way possible.
What’s a Milky Way worth if it’s not deep fried, you ask?
Then this is your new home.
If other sites claim to feature “foodporn”, this is the one with midgets, cute little animals and red-haired Lumberjacks.

Now that’s kind of cheap, Kein & Aber, don’t you think?

I’m not saying it’s a total rip-off, but it is.

NOTE: We couldn’t be any further away from being journalists here, or not biased for that matter, and maybe walker Werbeagentur is the original author of both pieces of work, but if not, somebody deserves a punch to the mouth and not ADC silver for copywriting. It just bothered me because I really liked the ad.

WTF? Microsoft

Is CP & B even involved in this?
Is “lame” their “perpetual” strategy?
Does Bill Gates wants Microsoft to look bad because he is done with it?
How is it even possible to feature Jerry Seinfeld in a four minute ad without anything being funny?
What’s going on here?
Could somebody please fix the pieces of my shattered world?
*crawling underneath desk*
A wise man once said:
“I would not have thought it possible for Microsoft to produce anything worse than their software… but, somehow, they did. Frankly, I am stunned.”
Okay, I found that in the comments section of Wallstreetfighter.com but it sums it up pretty good.

Dumb Skaters? Zooyork wastes opportunity, uses tiny testimonials.

We tried to use cockroaches, spiders and moths a few years back for an ambient idea but as much as the agency liked the concept they wouldn’t let us do it in the end, simply because it is never a good idea to kill live animals during the process of advertising.
Zooyork now does it again - and as much as I like the idea of branded cockroaches I think it is a wasted opportunity to do something smart with it. Instead they just throw ‘em around, annoy people and roll over them with their skateboards. Jerks.
Damn you, internet, you start going on my nerves.
You watch and judge yourself.

Robotic Snake Can Perform Heart Surgeries

17.04.2008 | Jake Shaw | Don't, Insane, painful | 1 Comment

This is the freakiest thing i have ever, ever, ever, seen in my whole, entire life. The idea is to let this thing loose in your body to preform ‘non invasive’ medical procedures . Imagine if it freaked out! Or just started having a sissy fit while working on your still beating heart!! Forget that!

Advertising vs. Reality

27.03.2008 | Elias Kouloures | Don't, Food | 1 Comment

The guys from Pundo3000 hold up the mirror against us, the advertising industry, package designers and product managers of our clients. Since I embrace truthfulness and common sense, I thought I’ll feature them here. Even if it’s contradictory to my profession, but IMHO some folks simply go too far when “optimizing ROI” on their products and brands.

Check the pictures below for a few previews or go to their homepage for an in-depth review of their pack shot-product-comparisons.

Photoshop Disasters

A new blog has been set up and it’s totally devoted to those little mishaps that occur, when an overambitious art-director looses himself in the fine art of photoshopping. Enjoy: Photoshop Disasters - the blog.

Two things are infinite: mankind’s stupidity and the universe. (But I’m not sure about the universe.)

A famous quote from Einstein. Which once again is being proven right. Or maybe it’s just a different point of view in different cultures that business men come up with ideas like this. But I recall one traveler telling/notifying me of the fact that in many households in India still to date “Mein Kampf” can be found, because “he valued his race and fought for us (the Germans)”.Therefore these Hitler-themed-restaurants and bars actually don’t surprise me more then Al Bundy making a joke about the strength of his toilet flush.

Tough Guy. Count me in.

There is an event near Wolverhampton, England, in winter, called the tough guy event. It is a series of crazy-ass mental obsticales on a farm in the middle of nowhere. You have to jump flaming pits, swim through underwater tunnels etc. A mate of mine did it, and he is double hardcore, but if you want to enter then never fear, click here… http://www.toughguy.co.uk/
