OK, now we’ve gone too far. Are we really to believe that a washing machine needs a cleaning product to clean it when, um, let’s be honest, it cleans itself every time it runs because, oh, WE PUT DETERGENT IN EVERY TIME!
Anyway, that little bit of logic hasn’t prevented Tide from introducing its Washing Machine Cleaner product. Nor has it prevented Saatchi & Saatchi New York from exponentially overdoing a “dirty little habit” joke.
Because if we only advertised what people actually needed, there wouldn’t be enough business to keep all those agencies and holding companies in business.
