AAAGHHHHHHHHH! seriously, we NEEEED a puke emoticon.

Agreed, I drew up this the other day, would be perfect for :grimace; imo.

Anywho, nasty ad campaign but the thing itself looks pretty good, like vanilla ice cream & strawberry syrup... mmmm...

Note the GTA reference.

Sigh.

And that's fvcking disgusting.

I noticed this, too.

The sad thing is that GTA is designed for adults (17+). Kids aren't supposed to be able to buy these games. Yet the marketing manager references that many of the same "tweens" that might be interested in this game might also have an interest in this new drink. So I think the logic is dangerous and irresponsible. I can't personally see the connection of "bloody zit" and GTA...but the company product manager does. Should these types of companies be trying to target the "underaged" GTA crowd while at the same time we are trying to pass laws against selling the game to that very audience??

BTW, nothing against GTA, its a damn entertaining game. And if you want your 10 year old to play it, fine. But this type of marketing logic scares me. Just like trying to use cartoon characters to sell cigarettes.

GTA = Greater Toronto Area, not the video game.

I'm seeing ads for these everywhere. Who the hell thought of this drink and ad campaign?

 

[UNCjigga]

LOL, I remember Mac's Milk! Do they still call it Mac's Milk, with that Fritz the Cat logo? I used to buy my Coffee Crisp and homo milk in bags there all the time.

Tweens? Bloody Zit?

People have gone retarded.
