When Centurytel and Embarq merged in 2009, CenturyTel began a large re-brand campaign for their new identity CenturyLink. Fair enough. But I want to know who came up with the slogan seen in these billboards:
Be Stronger Connected
Here is everything you need to know about fast food in one convenient infographic from Online Schools.
What recession? New York Times is reporting that all ad buys have been purchased for the upcoming Super Bowl 45 taking place in the Dallas Cowboys’ new stadium. FOX, who is broadcasting this year, has no more spots up for grabs. Pepsi and General Motors will be back in the mix this year after sitting out last year. I remember when I was a kid, my mind was blown at a $1 million/30 second ad. Last year ad buys cost $2.5 million to $3 million!

Even if you have the best intentions, sometimes you just have to refrain from using your own name in things. Ian Cumming from Canada is learning this the hard way thanks to the (immature) internet. He’s Cumming with diligence and stability.

I would be pissed off if I lived in an apartment building where ADT and ad-agency DDB performed some invasive marketing. These idiots went into apartment buildings all over Santiago, Chile and slipped rubberband spring-loaded boxes under doors to advertise how breaking into your apartment is “easier than you think”. Assholes. First off, you slipped a box under my door. You didn’t break into shit. Secondly, there are a lot of people who won’t realize this box was slipped under their door and could freak out. Everything about this just sucks.
ADT, don’t mess with people’s homes.
This story reminds me about when I was a 13 year old dude waiting to go into Sunday school class. Being the innocent and morally-sound boys we were, we would call 1-800-WET-TITS on the pay phone outside of the church. Well, Chad Ochocinco is a charismatic wide receiver for the NFL’s Cincinnati Bengals. Recently his cereal (pictured at right) named Ochocinco’s was released to the public and was supposed to help the Feed the Children charity. But some silly shit used the wrong toll-free number prefix on the box. So all those wonderful families that tried to call and help Feed thge Children were welcomed by a sexy-voiced woman bragging about “the sluttiest girls your nasty imagination can dream.”
An advertisement on Edmonton Journal’s newspaper front page looks like it tells people to avoid Justin Bieber.

Poor South Bend, IN public school system. They recently threw up a billboard which reads “pubic” instead of “public”. Yeah. Pubic as in pubic hair. As in pubes. The mistake was not actually done by the city or school system but by their creative company, Blue Waters Group.
