Greenpeace Lunges for Kleenex (Again)

This is part of Greenpeace’s ongoing attempt to get Kleenex to stop using ancient trees to make its products. It’s pretty much the same deal as what happened here — indeed, they’re interrupting the exact same “Let it Out” campaign — but this time everybody’s in Wrigley Fields and there’s lots of bear puns (Chicago is home of the Cubs).

There’s an adaptation of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” at the end of the video, except the lyrics have been changed to champion the cause of bears and trees.

Clever the first time. The second time around? …eh.

Nobody prepares you for the loneliness of being well-married. Not unhappy enough to leave, not connected enough to stop aching, just existing in the strange middle territory where everything is fine and fine is the loneliest word in the English language
