So I haven't been active lately. Blame my examinations and my innate quality to give into my lazy self.
However, this post is only here because LB convinced me to write it. Damn his chubbiness.
Let's rant today.
Indian advertisement has reached it's worst ever. Let's make a list, for I like lists.
- The Mountain Dew ad.
Scene: Bunch of guys standing atop of a dam with skateboards.
It's quite evident what is going to happen next. A guy drops a MD bottle from the top. Mind you, the dam is large enough, in height and in breadth. The guy then goes to skateboard over the dam from the top to the bottom, to reach for the bottle, which incidentally doesn't smash to smithereens on collision with the expansive dam I mentioned before. Yes, the facts are blown out of proportions in most ads, but this is quite the limit.
-The Thums Up ad.
Scene: An airplane with a bunch of teenagers sitting on a couch.
An flight attendant, one of those army guys, is given orders from the the pilot. He cranks up a lever and the plane shaft opens, after which the couch is propelled towards Mother Earth in a perfect upright position. A parachute opens up from within the couch, doing what it does best. The couch further more slides of a building to ground. There are so many things wrong about this ad, and yet people go what the title of the post says. The uprightness of the couch, the non-separation of the knuckleheads from the couch, the sliding off a building: top notch advertisement.

-The Cadbury Gems ad.
Scene: A lady sitting on a bench in a park.
A solitary gem sprouts from the lovely lush grass top of the park. The lady picks it up and eats it. Gross. This act opens a fountain where a plethora of Cadbury Gems start sprouting. To keep the confectionery to herself, she leaps from the bench to contain and hide it from the general public. What is wrong with today's mentality?
You are the consumers, you are the judges. I made my case, it's sustainability or overruling is your call.
In other news, Papiss Cisse has sold his soul to the Devil. The way he has been scoring goals lately reminds me of none less but The Ghost Rider. The Goal Rider.
Real Madrid are the Campones of Spain. Well done.
Messi destroyed Muller's goal record of 67 goals in a season. 68 currently.
Adem Ljajic and Fiorentina Ex-Manager Delio Rossi spat resulted in the latter's sacking.
Eventful times.
It is MM's birthday today. The lad's 20 now, and yet he's unaware of his true purpose. The other mates, SS, Faujistan, The One gifted him something to boost his manhood. Latex material spoiler.
Happy birthday man. You're probably the awesomest people I have in my life and I appreciate whatever you do for the rest of us, mainly sustaining the sanity of the group. Cheers mate!
