If people think you're tough you have less chance to "wake up in ditch" than when people think you're jerk indeed )

I'm going to be the jerk here, but these should've been better.

This is a ripe concept (although it seems familiar?), but the jokes are pretty weak. The point As could be stronger, and the the point Bs could too.

Right now this is a DARN GOOD campaign. When it should be a FUCKING GREAT campaign.

It's not often you get such a simple, and fertile construction.

Did the client choose the weak ones?

That said I'm assuming they're already working on round 2. Go! Go!

You are not the JERK sirvan because I fully agree with you that the jokes need to be better.

This can be a solid campaign if the jokes are good, but I do not think It can go that far with the concept.
