The brief told us that the new Subaru sedans were coming hot off the production track. They wanted to introduce these cars in a clever bold way with some seductive art.

Oh my.
Please tell me this is a joke.
The good thing about this, is that it's never been done.
You know why? Cause it's unimaginably bad.
oh this is crazy....what is this
I dont like practical jokes.

Gosh. Thanks for wasting everyone's time with your little... joke.
Funny, I was under the impression that this was a forum for professionals and students in the advertising field. Not "look at me!" wankers whose work isnt even worth the time of day.
If you ever decide to get serious about your career, let us all know. Until then, I see a good reason to pass on anything bearing your name, because to you, clearly all of this is just a joke.
Haha my friend you take this so seriously. You act like I made a mockery of all that is advertising. It was a silly little joke. Your precious time viewing the picture took 10 times shorter than your effort of writing that comment.
You are right. My constant barrage of these stupid jokes has led to a pocket-sized credibility on my part. Everything henceforth of my ONE posting is going to be a silly little joke.
I suggest you wipe up those tears and lighten up. You are trying too hard to be offended. Lets just all be friends.
Have a nice day.
I personally enjoyed your crazy post. :)
Thanks for the laugh.
Friend, if you're going to tell a joke, make it *funny*.
'Nuff said.
Ok Sean. I am sorry for offending you. I'm not trying to make enemies here.
Let me just remind you of this point. Taste is subjective. Citizen found some humor in it. That's what's great about advertising (not saying this is advertising lol)...it's subjective. Can't please everyone.
What's your address my man, Sean. I would like to send you some chocolates or a teddy bear to offer my apologies.

We promise to sarve you better
WOW, thanks!!! Because that's exactly what I came here looking for!!
my kingdom for a "report post" button.
I'll take one of everything.
Dan,
I saw your website before, how I found it I have no idea, but I like your work. I have a very similar sense of humor, the more off beat the better. I have to say I didn't think your post was a joke at first. I've seen some pretty rough ideas hear before, but what does bother me is how fast people went on the attack. Posting a bad ad is like a drop of blood in the water here. All the circling sharks come in for a bite. By saying it was a joke you pulled the bate out of the water and pissed off some of the sharks.
SeanMartin gives some good advice, so cut him some slack. As for wasting our time though, we choose to waste our time here, it isn't taken from us. I just wish some of us used that time to make better comments.
I like jokes, so no offense taken by me.
Thanks for the compliment. You make some good points. Maybe my choice of introduction to the site was a little off beat as well, but I guess that's just my nature.
All the best.

Pure vanguard. This is a whole new concept in Art Direction.
Love it.
I am also new to this site and I have to say that I often browse through the ad's here and a lot of them a quite good. So when I initially saw this ad I laughed, I found it hilarious because it was so damn bad.
Thanks dansheppy52 for the laugh.
And I checked out your website and you have some interesting ideas.
peace.
can u plz tell me who's ur TA here?? as ur brief didn't mention it. in case ur TA is exposed to that kinda "hit-me-flat-on-my-face" communication, i think, u put ur ass on the fire... to reach the stars sooner than later. it's terrific "BOLDNESS" and even terrific to see your effort to live up to that boldness.
and if anyone is suggesting u that u r wasting their time by posting this ad, show them the EXIT DOOR... as it's an open forum, so none is invited here by u. on the flip side, everyone is invited rather automatically.
if it's a JOKE.. let it be... the CREDIT IS ALL URS THEN... coz even being a joker u could afford to gain so much of attention on ur work.
so ENJOY and ROCK ;)
well put.

oh my god! oh my god!
is this subu sold with marijana inhalator?, this ad works pretty good on reggae t shirt!
Looks like bad Paintbrush to me!
logo is a bit big other than that, i think this is perfect.
www.bahonsadvertising.co.uk
I say it's not big enough!! Also, needs lens flares to show how awesome the car is.
lens flares! genius! there is no other word for it simply brilliant suggestion. Comic sans could be a nice typeface for the copy too.
dan i hope your writing all this down.
www.bahonsadvertising.co.uk
noted! I will post the updated ad in the near future!
I'm learning so much from this site!!!

I think you need way more exclamation marks. Double or triple the amount of them, then add lens flares and change to comic sans as suggested, and you're golden!

another golden suggestion! I'm sure, after I update it, I can use this as the sole piece in my portfolio.
All I have to do is saunter on in to a big agency CD, slap it on his desk and walk out. No contact information because I KNOW he will want to find me.

Nice ! but verrry bad excusn...........
IF THIS WAS A JOKE YOU ARE THE MAN!! CUZ ALL THESE MOFOS THAT COME IN HERE THINK THEY'RE ALL THAT. AND YOU SURE SHOWED THEM HA!
If it wasn't a joke, and of course you'll never admit to it now. You should gently hammer each knuckle bone in your hands so you may never be able to hurt anyone in your attempt at advertising ever agai.
Good joke tho
I don't believe in jokes.
