What's an ad campaign you've seen that made you wonder, "What in the world were they smoking when they dreamt *that* up?!"

One I've wondered about lately is the one for Cap'n Crunch cereal. Here you have a diminutive sea captain, with no discernible neck, possessing the mutant ability to detach and levitate his eyebrows, and luring children with bits of his cereal into cereal-making slavery. Look at the boxes yourselves and tell me that's not what you see....

How about the TP commercials with bears. It takes the saying does a bear **** in woods to whole new heights!

We could make a fortune selling our higher grade TP to those bears!!

*shudder* The ***-wiping bears are disturbing, even more so than the girl asking her mom about a "not so fresh feeling."

o.b. floored me with this: "Like a robot, I kept using the same tampon...." And they kept it on the air for months. Their ad people should be mercilessly flogged.

The bear one was not thought out very well. To put it mildly. Bears rubbing their hind ends on everything. Didn't know what brand of TP it was because all I could think of was how gross.
