– BMW’s holding a media review worth $155 million.

– Remember Memento? Imagine if it were an ad for Sony Ericsson.

– The Institute for America’s Future hopes to derail the political bullshit train with an ad campaign about “major challenges facing the country.” That’s cool and all, but is this nearly as exciting as this? Don’t answer, that’s rhetorical.

– “Mom, what are those?” “Tadpoles, honey.” “Oh. What do they have to do with being ‘knocked up’?” Good luck with that.

– If PETA’s ads were always this cute, I might have wanted a pig for a pet, not for breakfast. I like the point it made though. And look! They didn’t even have to embarrass anybody.

– Here’s a Wrigley Juicy Fruit ad in the style of that DoubleMint candy raver-looking thing. In this one, Julianne Hough invests the Juicy Fruit jingle with country music flair. It was so peppy and sweet, watching it gave me a cavity.

– In the unlikely event you need a laptop to match your Mandarin dress, Hewlett-Packard’s got just the thing.
