    Advertisements designed to be as loud, bouncy and aggressive as possible in an attempt to be noticed and remembered. The current trend of “every ad is the weird avant garde ad” is only slightly better.

    Of course, I would rather not have ads at all…

      HEAD ON APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD

      I'm still unclear why/how they were selling giant gluesticks for your forehead. Was it some kind of skincare thing?

        It was homeopathy. The ad wasn’t allowed to lie, so the writers compromised by simply not saying what the product does (nothing).

        Mom sweared by it. She knew it shouldn't work, but it did?

          The power of placebo. Placebo effect even works when you know it's probably a placebo which is interesting.

          Head-on is homeopathic headache remover that they can't advertise as working to stop headaches. Superstition is useful sometimes I guess if it actually "works"
