Love it. What would be a funnier way to advertise the closing of an ad agency?
I dunno. Something actually funny. This feels uncomfortably neither here nor there and the humor is clichéd.
I disagree. I want to go to that, buy the Agency's co-founder, his British Accent, and one of their walls.
I'm only a poor student haha but I'd go there if I was a bit closer (only about 1000km now!).

I loved the "british accent" part...
Well executed and very entertaining...
Yes, my profile picture is my dog on my sister's bed, with a pillow and a blanket...
Sadly, it's a direct rip-off.

Far too many similarities to claim it's an innocent coincidence.
Damn! I want such english accent too!
