stupid tv ads
[mood: weird]
[craving: a looong run]
Ever notice how stupid TV ads have become nowadays in the Arabic channels? I mean there are alot of good ones, but double that number of bad, silly ones.. Like yesterday, the latest Tefal cooking pan ad was on.. & it made me think “What the hell was that?!” O_o
Basically it shows a woman busy cooking, chopping onions & some vegetables, while she’s in tears because of all the onion-chopping.. Then she looks at the pan, *lightbulb! she has a bright idea!*, she moves her face closer to all that chopped onion – supposedly to trigger more tears.. then moves her face over on top of the pan.. and you watch as a tear rolls down her cheek & on to the pan where it sizzles.. showing the magic & effeciency of an already hot, bring-the-food-on Tefal pan.. and just suddenly you see a fresh uncooked piece of meat plop onto that same pan (right after the tear) and starts sizzling.. & so the ad ends.. leaving you with a disturbed thought of having a steak being served to you with a flavor of human tears.. X_x
Ok it may not sound that gross, but the concept is senseless.. & knowing how alot of people are like sheep in a herd immitating everything they see.. especially when it is gracefully shown to them & introducing a new hand-free way to test if cooking pans are ready.. it brainstorms a 101 thoughts in your head..
Another one of smash-that-tv-screen-right-now ads is the whole series of Danow drink.. I wouldn’t even go into that, but hearing a “MAFEE DANAAAAW?!” at the end of the ad is already enough to introduce a new screaming line for kids, ofcourse not to mention that whole concept of the ad is again senseless..
Ok enough ad attacking from my side.. I just had a little steam & had to let it out somewhere..
Anyway, here is a super-easy method to enjoy a refreshing drink, all you need is: a blender, a full tray of ice, water & Tang or Vimto (I recommend Mango Tang!).Mix all together in the blender (remember you need ALOT of ice) until smooth and slushy.. then serve in a glass.. Now you’ve got a yummy slush to enjoy!
That’s all for now.. look for Hong Kong part II soon!
