Whoopi Goldberg’s Bladder of Liberty

February 18th, 2011  |  by Mike Stern  |  published in All Posts, Internet, Print Ad

Tweet I remember when Whoopi Goldberg was actually funny. There was her very first breakout routine “”Direct from Broadway,” which debuted in 1985. Then in 1989 came “Fontaine… Why am I Straight?” Even 20 years later in 2005 her special “Back to Broadway” still had very strong moments. Agree with her politics or not you […]

Walgreens Loves Women Who Wear White

November 1st, 2010  |  by Mike Stern  |  published in All Posts, Print Ad

Tweet Disclaimer: This post involves discussion of a topic that often gets men into trouble; feminine hygenie products. So, to be safe, prior to authoring this entry I showed the ad in question to my wife who had an equally, if not more, negative reaction than I did. She even used some language that I […]

The Perils of Free

July 19th, 2010  |  by Mike Stern  |  published in All Posts, Internet, Print Ad

Tweet Growing up my mother imparted a few pearls of wisdom to us kids including this little nugget, “For free take! For buy waste time.” OK, I never really got the “waste time” thing and I’m probably horribly misquoting her but you get the point. Free is free! Grab what you can. In recently came […]

Nothing Subtle Here

July 7th, 2010  |  by Mike Stern  |  published in All Posts, Billboard, Magazine, Print Ad

Tweet I remember when Joe Camel, the hip mascot for Camel cigarettes, was shamed out of the advertising game. There were two accusations levied against poor Joe. The first was that the cartoonish nature of the ads, which generally featured Mr. Camel living the glamorous life while smoking, made cigarettes more appealing to kids. Not […]

PETA ad in Southwest Mag: Screw you @SouthwestAir, @PETA, and @Adrants

May 24th, 2010  |  by Jeff Ferguson  |  published in Magazine, Print Ad

Tweet I really don’t know whom to be pissed at here… Earlier today, Adrants reported that Southwest Airlines rejected the new PETA ad which features a hot chick in her underwear thanks to the new full body scanners at the airport  from it’s in-flight magazine because it was, “too provocative to run in our publication.” […]

Coupon Fun: Mr. Saturday Night… So Special

May 21st, 2010  |  by Mike Stern  |  published in All Posts, Print Ad

Tweet Just like many other people trying to stretch their hard earned dollars during this challenging fiscal time, I have become a coupon clipper. Every Sunday the paper arrives and I dutifully recycle everything but the circulars which I then comb through with the intensity of a lion stalking a zebra. Very little excites me […]

What’s up with Fergie’s arm in this Black Eyed Peas concert ad? #WTF

May 5th, 2010  |  by Jeff Ferguson  |  published in All Posts, Print Ad

Tweet I was flipping through a copy of Rolling Stone this weekend and found this ad for the Black Eyed Peas’ Summer Tour. After asking some basic questions like, “Why am I getting Rolling Stone? I didn’t order Rolling Stone…” and “Who the hell still reads Rolling Stone?” I said, “What the hell is up […]
