Wow.... Pepsi ad will make people's heads explode |
|
Apparently it got leaked, and Pepsi is trying to squash it on the Internet. So, if the link still works: http://www.dvorak.org/blog/2011/01/10/pepsi-drank-the-koolaid/

1. I'm sure a lot of groups will be offended by this Ad but many "Groups" are.. |
|
..offended by just about anything. Even I get (slightly) offended by many Ads that portray the average husband as a simple-minded dolt who can barely open a can of soup. For a Society that continually yells about it's Freedoms, we sure bitch a lot about nothing of much importance. :) :)

10. Well, I've complained about that myself for years. |
|
I've even been known to say... "This isn't television. Just because I'm a husband and a dad doesn't mean I'm an idiot."

3. They kinda dragged the joke out too long. Plus the music sucked. |
|
The comments were funnier. The ad not so much.

6. You know what's funny - there are churches that use those same exact tactics |
|
There's a local church that robo calls everyone about their services. And their church offers KFC Sunday where there will be KFC (sometimes Taco Bell) after church.
How pathetic is a church if THAT is the reason they hope you'll attend.

8. That was part of Doritos Super Bowl contest. |
|
They run a contest for best commercial on their web site and show the winner during the Super Bowl. An ad agency created this one, but Pepsi decided it wasn't a finalist.
Pretty smart move. They get the commercial to go viral for free while sternly rebuking the commercial to avoid angering its religious customers.
