funny, very funny. this is my favourite
I find this really disgusting. One of the things I hate most whenever I have to buy superglue is accidentally getting it somewhere, and then you take it to a level of disgusting. Additionally, the bowl has been repaired really poorly, as if to say, this glue sets so fast you can't even use it to fix stuff right.
In terms of art direction, I know they couldn't just show a perfect bowl without a noticeable crack and just half a thumb attached to it. But I completely agree with your last sentence. This is an example of a "negative reinforcement" ad done poorly. And I've seen others doing it sccessfully many times before.
I very much like reading your comments.

This is one product no one will buy... better buy others that doesn't take your fingers off.
Bad advertising. 3 seconds or you're fucked up.
From a consumer point of view of course, you want to get things glued not destroy your body.
Bueno.

De nada sirve una Gran idea sin una Gran ejecución.

Instead of cutting one's own finger, shouln't
he cut the object which has been glued.
Message well conveyed, though little weired.

if there truly is a 3-second rule for an ad this will go completely unnoticed.
maybe an idea but too hidden.
