I missed this post on AdRants (shame on me) but I got pointed to it by Bnox, and so I still get to do my rant, which is fun. I agree that the guys from Exit3a (who claim to be an ad-agency, but nobody ever heard of it) are total twats. Apart from putting a Greenpeace logo beneath some stupid quotes as theirs, I’m amazed about the degree of stupidity some creative director has obtained in order to approve general irritation like this. Somebody, somewhere, please aim a gun. If this is a stunt to get this agency noticed, let’s never speak of them again. For all I know, they’ll screw up your brand just by looking at it. Earth day is supposed to be constructive, and last time I checked, words like ‘motherfucker’ and insults concerning mothers getting screwed are far from that. I know it’s about ‘Mother Earth’, but still. Not funny. Release the hounds lawyers!

I like these ads. Where’s your sense of humor? Do you work for the Censorship Board of Communications?
