At least Jay Oreman doesn’t take himself too seriously; that’s always a nice quality in a man! Especially as his billboards must be plastered all over town, advertising his services as a realtor.
And just for being such a good sport, we’d give Jay a call. If we need to find a home, that is. For our combing needs, we’ll try someone else.
Thanks for the Reminder
What a downer of an advert... Yes, we know we won't be able to afford to retire in today's economic climate, but why use this bleak prospect to try to sell us some expensive, bulky boots?
With such a disheartening message, we wouldn't be surprised if Timberland doesn't do so well. Good luck depressing your clientele into buying your overpriced shoes!
Take Easy
If you're looking at this sign and thinking you have no idea what it's trying to tell you, you're not alone. We think they were going for "take it easy" but ended up taking it so easy and putting so little effort into it that they came up with "take easy it."
We wish someone would just tell designers typography can be hard to pull off, which is actually why we shouldn't take it easy at all.
An Absolute Fail
Whoever was in charge of this must have thought that this is a great idea. We'll just put the word 'absolute' on a dress and let a model wear it; what could possibly go wrong? Oh, so much could go wrong, so much!
In this case, the problem is that at a certain angle, with some letters hidden, the word absolute can suddenly spell an improper term used to describe women.
The Grinch
Besides being a Christmas favorite, the Grinch is also one of our favorite characters we grew up with. This advert was done in incredibly bad taste, and we're sorry to see the Grinch's portrait used like this!
In real life, the Grinch would never agree to have his face used in adverts like this to promote some corporation's greedy agenda! The Grinch may be grouchy, but he does have standards and prides himself on being anti-establishment.
