I just bought a Snickers bar

Snickers Super Bowl ad, 2007
It’s my small way of thanking them for their hi-bloody-larious Super Bowl ad.

Things that amaze me:

  • That some people want to ban this ad.
  • That it occurred to me to look for this on YouTube. (I’m not so out of it!)
  • That it was there. (OK, that didn’t really amaze me, but the official, sanctioned presence of things like this in places like YouTube definitely signals a sea change in marketing.)
  • That I’m actually posting a link to an ad!

I’m not actually a big fan of Snickers, but I managed to eat one for the cause. When I get home I can eat some of that wonderful dark chocolate that WeatherGirl bought me for Xmas. Nummmyyyyy…

    I plan on blogging on this too.

    Another timely reminder that not all of us ‘read’ things the same way, ‘cos hey, I thought they completely dissed straight men in this ad.

    Who’d a thought I could be so wrong?
