More milk...

[BlackHawk]

Has anyone seen that commercial?

By "that commercial" I mean the milk commercial where it's like a rap video about milk. OMFG it's hilarious they have a truck on hydraulics bouncing up and down, and then this old guy's like "We chillin'" lol, it's like a stereotypical rap video....and it sounds like a rap song too, just the beat, and the words...sorta.

Whoever got the idea for this definitely got a large, fat bonus.

[SoulreaverELITE]

just thinking of what it might look like makes me laugh, now do you know anywhere you can dl it?

I've seen it. I found it slightly amusing, but I'm kind of annoyed at all of these 'hip' marketing approaches.

First it was "create a cartoon mascot!"
Then they moved onto "XTREME!"
Now they're going into "Gangsta"

I mean, have you seen some of the McDonald's commercials lately? The milk commercial would have been much more entertaining if it was released two years before now :P.

Ewww, I dislike McDonald's in everyway now. "i'm lovin' it" like wtf, are they trying to be "hip" and "with it" by using improper grammer? And they ripped it from a Justin Timberlink song? I never knew they could sink that low.

And then that one commercial, the guys run out of gas, so what do they do? Buy McDonalds? Wtf, if I ran out of gas buying McDonalds would be the last thing on my mind. Stupid McDonalds.

And speaking of the "gangsta" marketing, I saw some news article a while ago on how some company is using a bull dog or something dressed up like a 'gangster' to advertise condoms because they think it will make teens go "OMG, it's a gangster, I'm definitely buying that!"

Silly adults.

[Graeme]

Silly adults.

Haha, that just calls for the appropriate ending, "Trix are for kids!"

Honestly, I wonder if there are any people that are actually dumb enough to fall for these asinine marketing schemes. It just seems so far-fetched, that anyone could believe that McDonalds is actually helping to create this great multicultural community, through use of over-used gangster clichés. I just don't see it!

I'm truly sorry, but bad rap and bad hip-hop does not make me want to buy your products any more than a talking kidney bean would :/.

[Carnage]

Bah. Commercials these days insult me. Has anyone seen the one for that type of truck in which it shows a guy going from birth to young adult years. He has 1 foot bigger than the other.

That's the majority of the commercial!!! O_<

The last 2 seconds shows the actual car DRIVING! O_O

I don't find it thought-provoking, I find it offensive!

[Schwitzer]

I got so sick of that pathetica "X-treme" marketing that so many companies adopted it actually had the reverse effect of deterring me from buying said products. "X-treme health bars"?! Yeah, 'cause you can't get any more extreme than some sort of fruit snack :p

[MacG]

Got Milk commercial actually had a commercial like that? I saw the Pepsi vs Coke one. Haha, that was Ownage.

[CaRBomBnCowBoy]

haha I haven't seen that 1 yet... but I like the chocolate milk 1 where the dude's on a mountain bike and he hits a rock and just starts tumbling down a steep hill hitting a bunch of rocks. u know that had 2 hurt... p.s. I hate those mcdonald's commercials 2... espesicially the 1's on the radio, what kinda crap/rap is that. I would like 2 see/hear them do sum 80's hair band commercial(i.e. twisted sister or sum other1) now that would be amusing.
:devil:

[Dark_Soul74]

If McDonalds is just getting white meat chicken now, what did they have before?

It's when A coke truck drives up to the red light with country music. The pepsi guy in his truck looks over and presses a button and all these subwoofers come out and knocking music and hydrolics(so?) starts to bounce.

[Schwitzer]

Once upon a time there was another Coke vs. Pepsi ad, but I think it had the something about jetskis... I'm sorry, it was so long ago; anyone able to expand upon this?

[TheGreatBrain]

Then they moved onto "XTREME!"Have some soda! ARE YOU READY FOR THIS SODA? I'M NOT FUCKING KIDDING MAN! THIS SODA IS GOING TO FUCKING DOMINATE YOUR FACE!

[GrassDragon]

My thoughts exactly. Blegh, makes me cringe just thinking about it...

[Funkwich]

They Make Gangsta Bulldog Condoms??? Brb

[BlackHawk]

If I remembered the article correctly, yes. Then again, they apply the 'gangsta' method to just about anything now-a-day's. I wouldn't be suprised if I came downstairs and got a box of Kellogs Frosted Flakes out, and Tony the Tiger was decked out in 'gangsta' wear including an overly-large silver necklace.

:D. Honestly, I went to a place in my city called, "Mariposa Market" the other day. They usually sell all these antiques, and they have a scent shop, as well as a bakery and a fudge shop. So it's a pretty innocent looking place. You're not going to get anything extreme here, because . . well, this is the type of place old ladies go to!

So I'm walking through, I just wanted a cheap bottle of water, so I head to the fridge. I look around, aha! Mariposa brand water, it's got to be cheap right!? I mean, if it's Mariposa water, it's local water, and the local water is . . . AWFUL (it's true, ask Garth if you don't believe me). So I'm heading to the counter. I throw it up on the counter, and I twist the bottle slightly, and read on the label, in crazy, extreme, bolded, yellow, black outlined letters "Mariposa Water X-TREME!".

I think for a second, Wait a minute . . . I enter an old-folk like shop, looking for a normal looking bottle of water, and I get something extreme again?! Old people don't even drink extreme stuff!

Anyway, to my point:
* How can water be extreme?! I don't care how it's sanitized, or processed, or poured into the bottle, water will NEVER be extreme (unless a single person packages them all, and while packaging them, does non-stop backflips . . . if that makes any sense to you :P)
* Not only was this plain water, but it was plain ORILLIA (my city) water. This water is like . . . scum of all water. If I brought this water over to the water in Barrie or Toronto, they'd look at me funny, and likely laugh at me. Crappy water is even less extreme than normal water.
* How can a store, designed to draw the attention of elderly women create something that's so extreme, something that they're so excited about, that they have to take off the 'e', and hyphenate the word xtreme, just to show how extreme they truly feel it is?

Needless to say . . . I did feel kind of . . . extreme after drinking it. In fact, I was so energy-filled that I decided to kick the empty bottle at the store . . . of course being half way downtown at this point, I was a few hundred metres away from hitting the building :/.

Edit: Damn, you edited too quickly.

Agreed though. I find it hard to believe that 2 year old kids can rhyme better than I can . . . :P. NEVER WILL AN ENFANT BEST ME IN A RHYME-OFF!

I sure love those Durex Condom Radio Commercials. Haha
