Ads on Facebook

Most of you probably have a facebook account... If you don't, well, you know there's advertisements everywhere we put our eyes nowadays so, I don't really need to explain this.

Today, while I was at work, I found some ads that were worth mentioning because 1- They look silly. 2- I'm stupid and I add my own commercial catch lines to them.

So, here's a few:

1- Here's the first one. Here's what the thing should be saying according to the picture.

"We took part in this 10-week personal journey to become non-smokers together, me and my best friend Alice. At the end of this experience, we ditched our husbands and became non-smoker lesbians. Become a non-smoking lesbian today. Call now 555-123-3456."






2- "Onions are Toxic to Cats!"

Really? In my book, if I tried to give an onion to my cat, she'd just ignore it. Are people really forcing their cats to eat onions by starving them or shoving onions in their mouths!?

And I know that it's an ad about a book sold by Canadian Tire but... The logo just looks TOTALLY out of place with no mention anywhere of Canadian Tire. And the cat looks like it's saying: "HALP! Dis sign ish follow meh aroun!"



3- City Driving... WITH CARS!

Um... Yeah. If you try to sell me your product with obvious and pointless facts... I will surely SURELY be interrested.

And I wanted to build a city with cows and camels riding on pogo sticks.




4- Product ideas?

"Come on in. So I heard you had an idea for a new product, Miss. X?"
"Yes. Yes. It's very good. It's like a dildo but made by Apple called iMakeLoveToYou."
"That's a wonderful idea... *pushes a button and 2 bouncers come in* Don't worry, there is no fee for our consultation. Guys... Take her out!"
"Wait, whut!?" *is smacked on the head*
"Oh, yeah, it's free... but we take your ideas from you! Call now!"


Again, a little glimpse to my weird brain while I'm at work...

  1. Facebook ads are typically just an attempt to get a certain number of clicks. There is rarely any truth in them, hun.

  2. Oh Faceboo.

    Facebook ads crack me up. As well as Facebook in general and the weird updates people write.
