McDonald's Commercial: Apparently, Most Women Are Posers
I loves me a good commercial. One of my very first blog post was a bunch of European Ikea commercials (which attests to my theory that European commercials are a bit more racy than ours), and I have this weird, obsessive fondness for good commercials, probably due to Super Bowl commercials and working in marketing.
The latest commercial I saw that made me want to post isn't because it's a great one. Rather, it just makes me think about how some commercial do tend to reflect on the current times, whether intentional or not:
Seeing women admit that they don't really know where Paraguay is, but pretending to be intellects to save face at a jazzy cafe/coffee shop doesn't scream out OMG BEST COMMERCIAL EVER to me. Rather, it just makes me think about the country's current perception about "intellectual" women, a la Sarah Palin and it makes me sad.

Commercial of the Day: Everybody Farts
Pretty self-explanatory, but I thought it was certainly a different way to..erm..promote a hotel. But man, some of those flatulent examples were crazy strong winds! :x

Why I Love Ikea
At work, one of our current projects involves a YouTube-like site based in France called Dailymotion. Same deal as YouTube, but utilized moreso in Europe.
As I was browsing through the site, I noticed a bunch of Ikea ads. Does Ikea even have commercials in the States? If so, I doubt they have any commercials remotely similar to these in Europe.
Here's a few Ikea commercials that I've come across and that made me love Ikea even more.
Come to think of it, I saw an Ikea commercial yesterday. And compared to the European ones, the American ads are a lot .. cleaner. I guess it's trying to go along with its image .. wholesome, affordable furniture.
