Spoofing its own Pepsi Max Heaps Rich campaign, Pepsi Australia has launched a viral advertising campaign called Heaps Poor Pepsi Min which, over the past three weeks, has been viewed by 160,000 people.

I’m 73 and I’ve learned that the marriage conversations that matter most never start with “we need to talk” — they start with a long drive, a bad week, or one of you finally saying something true by accident
