The Ad Man Speaks

Suicide By Elbow



Suicide By Elbow.
While some advertisers are featuring uplifting philosophical messages in their ads (see Dodge Ram or Cadillac), this quilted Northern Tissue ad features a ceramic “Little Miss Puffytail” that wants suicide by elbow. What!!??
She is hoping someone will smash her to pieces. She prays to God for it! Did she experience some horrific thing that compels her to end her life? No. She sees people using the toilet paper. It might not be fun viewing, but to die over it?
The claim is that people can forget their experience with the paper, but she can’t. What a claim! They might remember the experience if the paper was far better than what they expected, but obviously it isn’t, or these “creative geniuses” would tell us why.
