I just hate deceptive advertising in general.

as opposed to honest, accurate, advertising? lol.

[the-rukh.livejournal.com]

Sure I would rather that yes. I just comment here because this one is purposely trying to be something other than a marketing campaign.

It's only "deceptive" if you think The Most Interesting Man in the World is a real person instead of a character...

Its deceptive in that people go "oh hey this is a funny picture spread for the purpose of humor!" when it's not, it's a marketing campaign.

The photo is FROM a marketing campaign, but I kinda doubt they made this one themselves. Or did they, is that what you mean?

[the-rukh.livejournal.com]

I doubt this one in particular is, but the site it's from is getting fairly well known for advertisers using it to force memes to sell crap.

[bikinisquad3000.livejournal.com]

Gotcha.

[anfalicious.livejournal.com]

Interesting. I've been wondering if this was happening.

As you know, millions of beer drinkers have switched to Dos Equis because someone appropriated their ad for a meme.

You should see all the kony memes there right now.
