and theyre all over the fucking internet. Ebay, CNN, MSNBC, etc. I have never seen such a fucking irritating ad campaign in my entire life. Even if this was the last financial institute on the planet, I would never deal with them based solely off their god damn fucking irritating ass ads.

I think they're just plain weird. I enjoy the moon dancers. they seem to really be having a great time.


generally, cort and I have had a problem with dancing in advertising. there were some commercials going around on t.v. with people dancing ridiculously in a furniture commercial with terrible dance-ish music. dancing is the opposite of furniture!


this is my favorite furniture commercial ever (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdbimZrEz88)

That first one, I do indeed see everywhere and I hate it. I was actually thinking the other day, "Who sees this shit and says, 'Ooooh! Let's see what this advertiser has!'?" Then got depressed realizing that, yeah, it must be working.

*sighs*

I hadn't seen the other two. The line dancing cowboys are awfully homosexual. The moon dancing thing -- Van Morrison-inspired? -- is odd and kinda works and kinda doesn't. The gut is actually kind of cool, though.

lower my bills.com just seems like they are confused and consider anything to be advertising. (http://adverlicio.us/lowermybills_com_facepainted_little_girl_300x250)

Oh for God's sake! The dancing cowboys are at ew.com. I must just have a special block that keeps me from seeing that shit.

Until now.

I know my first instinct when finding a good mortgage rate is to dance on my rooftop with a girl with an oddly shaped body and cornrows.

I thought that too!

They're annoying, but the ones you can drag your mouse over to make them dance has captivated me.

They still suck though.
