Superb Ads

March 30th, 2010 at 6:30 pm by David Farrar

The Age reports:

In one of the advertisements, a voiceover tells teenagers that every time they use mobile phones and drive, ”gingers get fresh with other gingers”, while showing two redheads in bed.

Another ad says that using a mobile while driving will cause an ”emo” to be born.

They will be the most effective road safety ads of a generation. Warning teenagers their actions could lead to more gingas or emos will be highly effective.

The videos are not set up for embedding, but you can view the emo one here and the ginga one there.

    I think more people should use mobile phones while driving.
    The reason the ginga one is blocked is because someone tagged it as R18.

    Does anyone else find them coarse and vulgar? Kind of lowering standards just that little bit more?

    This says everything really. There’s no compelling reason this was made illegal, so they have to make shit up. God kills a kitten every time I have a wank too.

    Reminds me – Where is our real GINGA – goofy’s one; or has he changed his hair colour so nobody will notice him since his indiscretion over Christmas partying in the Press gallery?

    ***In one of the advertisements, a voiceover tells teenagers that every time they use mobile phones and drive, ”gingers get fresh with other gingers”, while showing two redheads in bed.***

    Hmmm, they couldn’t say “blacks get fresh with other blacks” or “Jews get fresh with other Jews” – lucky there are some groups that are still fair game. Double standards no?
