NOTE: FYI, anyone reading on a feed is going to be missing out on some sweet video action.
Over at David Armano’s excellent Logic + Emotion blog, I stumbled across some interesting discussion regarding a rather sophomoric Hardee’s/Carl’s JR. ad regarding flat buns. David doesn’t much like the ad, and the 19 comments from his readers seem to indicate a similar distaste.
Being a 26-year-old guy who likes sophomoric humor–and having recently written about why guys act the way they do–I feel the need to come to this ad’s defense. And post some other ads for reaction. I love them all. They make me laugh. A couple of them almost had me calling an 800 number for a free sample of a male enhancement drug. Almost.
The Carl’s ad in question:

A couple excellent Enzyte ads:

An AWESOME ad from Bodog. I was eagerly anticipating the reveal on this one.

And some ridiculous Clearasil ads. May cause confidence. May also corrupt teens and turn them into pimps and hoes.

What really makes this one awesome is the “You too” at the end. That guy is seriously the MAN!

These have caused some real uproar, and even got a whole 5-minute segment on a CNN show. I think they’re hilarious. I honestly don’t see what the problem is.
Oh wait. I do know what the problem is:
