Find Us On Facebook! (by Shawn Honnick)

I don’t know… I think I’d rather see a map of the store location right there on the page. You know, so I can “find you” where your parking lot is and maybe buy some of that Top Round. You know?

h/t to marianne for the video.

dug up this info about it (though you should watch it before you read this):

[AdFreak] This video came out last year, but we missed it, so we’re circling back. It’s a fake 90-second cheese ad done for fun by British animatronics master John Nolan (who worked on Where the Wild Things Are, among other films). It shows a mouse having a nasty run-in with a trap, but that’s just the beginning of the story. It’s worth sticking with, even for the squeamish. Nolan used a live mouse for the opening shots and animatronics for the rest. “The rat was actually a robot I made covered in silicon,” he says. “It still had its real hair and nails of a dead rat, but I had to punch this in individually into the synthetic skin, a bit like how hair transplants work.” For more, check out Nolan’s Web site.

Well done.

Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless.
