The "Got Milk" advertising campaign made advertising look pretty sweet for a while. The infamous Aaron Burr commercial I believe will never be forgotten. I mean, this guy REALLY desperately needed a nice cold soothing glass of milk. This "got milk?" was also one of the concepts with the most novelist expression. It even stresses out the emotional type viewers. I felt for the guy even.
One thing I truly do NOT fancy about good advertising is when some smarty pants consumes the idea and they puke it back out onto $19.99 T-Shirts and matching bumper stickers. I witnessed a man at a bar the other night with a "Got Jesus?" shirt on. We see this filth all the time--Creative advertising becoming manipulated in the wrong hands and processed by the increditably lame. Some wise soul should start an activist coalition against these trashy products (that would be just as lame, please don’t)
