Woman Gives Birth to Giant Reeces Piece Alright, alright. How can we not cover follow up work to that freakishly amazing Skittles ejaculation video from last July? Directing team Jordan Sharon and Keith Hamm are at it again, this time spoofing Reece's with a freakishly delicious take on child birth. One must simply watch to experience the delightful oddity of this wonder. Breckenridge Brewery Gives Us The Least Interesting Man What took so long? After all, Dos Equis Most Interesting Man has been out there for quite some time. But it seems it's taken a couple of years for the campaign to get spoofed...by another brewer. Check out Breckenridge Brewery's Least Interesting Man created by Cultivator Advertising and Design. He will bore you to death. But he does drink good beer. Will Dos Equis have anything to say about this homage? Kids Toys Marketed on Liquor Bottles Yes, this is a spoof. No self respecting company making stuff for kids would stoop to this tactic nor would any liquor brand stand for it. Nonetheless, it's a humorous brand mashup we can all chuckle over for a few minutes in between our Super Bowl obsessions. Thanks George. David Lynch, Dennis Hopper Say Heineken is For Pussies Clearly not a real ad...let's make that clear right up front...but a funny one all the same. YouTuber RoboJukles has turned a clip from David Lynch's famed Blue Velvet, starring Dennis Hopper, into an ad for Pabst Blue Ribbon. In the clip, Hopper screams, "Heineken? Fuck that shit! Pabst Blue Ribbon!" And this is exactly what commercials would be like if marketers could say what they really thought. Uggcitrin Cures Irrational Obsession With Ugg Boots Anytime anything shifts from underground cool to mass adoption in a short period of time it also becomes ripe for parody and backlash. Take Ugg boots. The footwear used to be the coolest thing. Now you can buy them at Walmart. And that's a problem. In fact, it's a disease. But there is a cure. And it's called Uggcitrin. Check it out below. And yes, we know the video has been out for a while. Fashion Photographer Steven Meisel Shoots Fake Ads For W Check out these fake ads from fashion photographer Steven Meisel. For W Magazine, Meisel shot Linda Evangelista and four red-bottomed men for a lingerie brand the magazine dubbed Tantrum Intimates." Love that! Another ad features Joel Shumacher who, prior to his film career, used to design window displays for Henri Bendel, is surrounded by a bevy of ladies styling it up in formal black attire. And then there's Carmen Carrera in a faux ad for La Femme fragrance. Facebook Timeline Gets Don Draper's Kodak Carousel Treatment In perhaps one of the most moving scenes of AMC's Mad Men, Don Draper pitches an ad campaign to Kodak for its slide projector Carousel. It's epically awesome the way he uses the emotion of life events to perfectly position the projector for Kodak. Damn. If only Kodak had Don Draper now of when they really needed him; a few years ago when they foolishly brushed off the digital photography revolution as a fad. Anyway, Don Draper has traveled ahead a few years and is, once again, working his magic, this time for Facebook which just introduced its Timeline feature. We have to say, the pitch worked for Facebook's product just as well as it did for Kodak's Guuci Pays, Bikers Intimidate, JD Sports Faced - Working in advertising really is the easiest way to make money. That is if you're Chris Evans and you're on a photo shoot kissing Evan Rachel Wood. - JD Sports is seeking a 16 people to be The Face of JD in the brand's upcoming Fall advertising campaign. - This got lost in the shuffle. Be sure to check out this biker/movie theater stunt created by Duval Guillaume for Carlsberg. - Check out Famocracy, an effort by two Wharton School students who think the American Dream is still alive and well. - Blockbuster goes Netflix: separates video rental business from popcorn sales. - Dachis Group has unveiled Social Business Index, an index of real-time ranking, analysis and benchmarking of social media adoption within business. 'John Wren' Explains Omnicom's Netflix-Like Changes Let's be clear right up front. This letter was not written by the real John Wren. If it were, it would be career suicide and a giant middle finger lodged in the behind of shareholders. But let's not let that stop us from enjoying the humor within. Whomever wrote this letter created in the style of the letter everyone on the internet received from Netflix today explaining the company's recent price change and the launch of Qwikster. The 'John Wren' letter is far more amusing and will give you something to chuckle over on a Monday afternoon. Click the image to read. Gmail Has Its Nose in Your Colon Once again, a video meant for internal use only has been leaked to the web. This time, it's from Microsoft which is hyping Office 365 and it's called Gmail Man. With a catchy tune and the questionably suitable lyrics "Probing every sentence and all your punctuation. Got his nose in every colon and every situation," the video attempts to portray Gmail as abusing one's privacy. The video was played in front of an audience of 15,000 at Microsoft's annual Global Exchange sales conference held July 20. While the video is somewhat humorous even if it stoops to silly fifth grade boys bathroom humor, it shoots itself in the foot. The video argues Microsoft 365 is a business application that, unlike Gmail, carries no ads. Perhaps the creators of the video should have realized Google has a business solution as well and one of the features of that solution is the ability to disable ads.
