Dumb Mentos commercial.


You can always tells when some agency has hired some moronic art director and copywriter. They always produce commercials like this: a supposedly comical situation in which one friend selfishly betrays the other, (usually the less attractive) or steals something from him, or whatever. I guess unsophisticated boobs think that betrayal is hilarious. Now the newest trend among the juvenile and untalented is thinking they are incredibly witty by writing a line that makes you think of something else. In this idiotic case its, "What the fresh." Get it? Isn't that witty. Yuck. Yuck. Yuck.

P.S. That unrealistic gorilla suit weny out in 1949 with with Abbot and Costello in Africa Screams.

  1. Stupid, brainless, dim, dopey, etc. Why would I want to buy Mentos when I hear this slogan? It is irresponsible to let kids hear. How did anybody at Perfetti Van Melle think this wa a good idea? A better question is, "Why the Fuck wasn't the advertising team fired"?
