Proof that the marketing industrial complex needs a Malibu retreat offering Photoshop intervention.

A.D.: "FOUR HEADS!!! If we make it long enough to fit all 4 heads, it won't look like a lunchbox anymore!"

A.E.: "The client says their contracts all have an have equal-likeness clause."

A.D.: "But it won't work. It will look like a coffin with a handle."

A.E.: "Oh, and they also have a product placement deal with this company that makes these really cool, modern-style thermos bottles, you have to work that in too"

C.D.: "I'm going to lunch, if you need me, I'll be on the cell."

AE: Client wants something smart and conceptual, like this:

AD: Uh, okay. Let me just finish this blunt and i'll get right on it.

Was this copy written before or after "think outside the bun".

AE: "Spike just called, they want to know if there's anyway you can "sex it up" a bit, maybe work in some tits or something. The ad is testing too "alternate life-style", what ever that means."


AE: "Spike called again. They want more meat in the sandwich."

C.D.: "I'm back, did anything happen?
Is that Spike ad done yet? If anyone needs me, I'm in a meeting."

Client: Perfect! I love it! I fucking love it!!!

AE: Great! I'll send an invoice for the amount we agreed upon.

Client: Uh, I'm going to need to revise that budget...

Copy Writer: "Lunch box is two words."

A.D.: "Fuck off, it's shipped."

Jeez, I don't know I should laugh at this. It's so true. I have heard EXACTLY all these lines from all these people.

Proof that really great advertising is a collaborative effort!

Dicks in a Box

Best ad ever! What agency do I need to work at if I want to think out of the lunch box like this? This needs some sort of award!

Whosaid, they're all the same...

yah, work anywhere and you will get to do this shit. All day if you prefer until midnight.

If no one is going to claim ownership, I'm going to put this ad in my portfolio!
