Don’t Look Now, But I Think that Cow is Judging You.

Some people have been known to buy the cheese endorsed by happy cows. Considering cheese is, like, the fruit of their loins, I guess that makes sense. But can cows also be trusted to select your next car?

Fiat thinks so. In the Dutch spot above, a cow moos off a VW Golf and a Ford Focus, but desperately bellows “Bravooo!” (listen closely!) when one happens to idle by. Tagline: “Uitgesproken,” which means something like “distinct” or “pronounced.”

Adverblog says the spot hasn’t yet hit TVs; it’s currently only circulating the ‘net. I think it’s goofy, and not in a good way. But once it hits TVs, maybe it’ll prove a success by merit of its lean-in factor. (You know, when listeners lean in and go, “Wait, what?”)

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
