Radically ridiculous


A lot of things are bothering me about this ad.

First of all, nobody really can write something with lines that thick with a pen/ marker/ chalk this thin. (Unless you use the whole width of the chalk to do that and judging by the way he’s holding this thing he didn’t do that.)

Nobody ever will write on a board with this position, he’s using his left hand and he wrote all of that stuff on his right side. Just try it, you might hurt yourself. It’s just like Juha’s ear story.

Last but not least, the area around the model’s eyes is kinda dark. He looks more like a drug addict. PLEASE SHAVE, and would somebody please invest, like, five minutes in retouching the model’s face, pimples are so out of fashion

Stop using the ad agency employees as models.

    I hate to say this to an ad freak, but I never look at ads - whether an ad looks good or not, it has no effect on me whatsoever.

    As granny says:
    3afya 5ilg :)

    Having said that: yeah the guy’s pose looks odd.

    That reminds me of a joke,

    A prominent company wanted to hire an accountant, they interviewed the first accountant, “what is 1+1?” asked the employer, the acountant said “2″. “Wrong answer, don’t call us, we will call you”,said the employer.

    Next accountant, “what is 1+1?” asked the employer, the acountant said “3″. “Wrong answer, don’t call us, we will call you”,said the employer.

    In walks in the Egyptian accountant. “What is 1+1?” asked the employer, the egytian acountant said “What do you want it to be?”.

    Of course, he got hired on the spot.

    WOW!!! Tafkeerik nafs tafkeeri.. I hated this Ad the 1st time I saw it..
    First, It looks to me that he used a lipstick to write that down.

    2nd, I didn’t like the idea of 1×5=4 =/

    Hmmm…he doesn’t look too happy too, just staring into space. And the writing looks a bit bloody. A grim ad.

    hi there botata,
    long time no hear from u well i agree with u with the add in addition to that the writing is not suitable and merged with the background its seems that it just put there by mistake or forgot to finalize and retouch it
