Beautiful Monster.com

Someone (that I will leave unnamed) came to guest speak at my school that was a former employee of BBDO. She is now a creative director. She said BBDO was the most boring advertising agency on earth. It was too traditional and very much like Mad Men. I think she might be wrong. These two spots by BBDO are hilarious. The moose was one of the highlights of the Super Bowl and the Battle spot is completely left field. We all know that some people's jobs suck, but they are literally showing us sucky jobs that one would never imagine. The spots use cognitive dissonance to perfection. Originality is hard to find in advertising and I personally think this is truly fresh stuff.

Also, a GoDaddy.com spot just came on while I was writing that and I almost barfed. Their advertising is so incredibly bad. Can someone tell them to stop doing their work in-house? Anyways, the Monster.com ads are great. I hope they can keep it up. I'm sure a lot of people will go on the site now that thousands of people are being laid off, but I'm not sure how successful they will be at getting jobs on Monster. No one is hiring and if you are....then hire me. I'm unemployed. HELP. Just kidding. I refuse to make this blog into a cry for help. Wait a minute I just did by capitalizing help in the last sentence. Just enjoy the spots.
