Malaysian Ads Are Getting Stupider!
Written by GnomeFan on June 11, 2008 – 12:09 am -Yes they are. Malaysians are getting these stupid ads shoved into their brain without their knowing it. I won’t stand against this stupidity anymore. Who does these big company’s think they are? Creating stupid ads trying to ‘lure’ people into buying their product. I am mad because of this. Do they think that many Malaysians are stupid enough to buy into their cheap ideas of advertisement?
If they’re only one ad that is proving itself to be stupid, i won’t mind. But, there are a couple of ads out there that is soooooooo stupid that it doesn’t make sense. Let me take you through what ads am i referring to and what i think about it.
1. Pizza Hut. I don’t have anything against the food or their service but i’m quite mad at their new stupid ad that is showing their new ‘economically priced meal’ (forgot the name la). The ads starts off by Mom putting a bowl of fried rice on the table, then the Son says, “Morning fried rice, night fried rice” (in a kind of whining wussy ranting), then, the Mom will say, “that’s all we can afford (making a sad stupid fucking face). Then, her BRILLIANT daughter suggested to the family about the new pizza hut menu that has ‘economically priced meals’. Then, the whole family goes to pizza hut and each of them ordered it. Then, the mom, in a stupid annoyingly stupid and stupid (did i say stupid?),braggingly said, ” No more fried rice”.WTF?! Eating at pizza hut is cheaper than cooking fried rice ha? What’s in the fried rice mommy?? Abalone?? Extinct Dodo bird?? WTF?!!!! Eating in Pizza Hut is cheaper than cooking fried rice is it?? Dumbass.
2. Rexona Deodorant. Well, i don’t use rexona’s deodorant but i sure came across their ad a couple of times. The advertisement is just PLAIN dumb. The main character would ask a civilian(not a REAL one) about what she think of her current deodorant. There are two parts to this one ad and i’m going to explain both of the ad’s stupidity to you. First, the women would say,”It takes forever for the deodorant to dry up and i would do stupid things to make it dry faster” (in a whining, bitchy,complaining,asking for a cock kind of way). I would love to slap the women and the main character at that time. Then, the main character would tell the viewers about the problem that the second ‘civilian’ has which sounds like this,”Miss Stupid Bitch here has a problem regarding her deodorant. Her deodorant kept her coming late to her office” . I was like WTF! when i heard this. WTF?! Can’t you get a better idea than that? Fire your marketing people Rexona!!
Yeap. That’s the 2 proof why i think that these big companies are thinking that Malaysians are stupid. They want to make the ads ’simpler’ for Malaysians to understand. But, the only thing that they managed to gain from putting ’simple’ ads like that is showing that they’re stupid and don’t have good workers to think about their next ad campaign. I hate you stupid ads!!!

It’s marketing. You call it stupid, they call it creativity.
Since they get you to talk about it - even though you’re bad mouthing them - they won half the battle already. Eventually curious people will try for them self. Thus fulfilling the purposes of doing those ads.

yeap..creativity .. people can be creative.. but, be creative in a sense that is logic la..
some of the people out there would think the same thing that i think when the ad is on. stupidity. that’s just my two cents
