Oh my god, we do get high from smoking Skittles1111!!!
tothemax, you owe me a new brain. My old one is hiding in the corner, wibbling and weeping.
Wow. How do you not spot the wrongness before going forward with the ad campaign? What is wrong with these people?
This is why I've long believed that I need to contract my services to advertising agencies as a Professional Pervert. "Wait, you're going to put what text next to which picture? Oh no, no, no. You can't. Trust me, you don't want me to explain why." Or, alternately, "Simple rule, guys: If I start giggling, go back to the drawing board."
Oy.
Holllllllllly shiiiiiiit. What the effing hell? How do you look at that ad and go, "oh yep, perfect! Let's put it out there!"
I've been trying to find out if the ad is fake, but I haven't had any luck and it's kinda driving me crazy. The original post on AdRant doesn't work, some people think it's a fake but don't have any conclusive proof like a response from Breyers refuting the ad. I don't know what to think.
The Prague one exists as well - my sister sent me a picture of her, er, doing somewhat naughty things to it.
My degree is in advertising and one of my classes had a whole section on hidden subtext in ads. So I have no doubt that there are a lot of ads that have questionable stuff in it but that ad goes too far. So I'm inclined to say it's a fake but you just never know.
However, if they were adults instead of kids, I would totally believe it was real.
Wait, wait, wait. Read the small print paragraph under "Lickable." Are we still sure it's real?
Oh dear lord, yeah, that seems fake.
This isn't (so far).

Yeah, the word "asses" is used in the text. I'm going to go with fake. Thank goodness.
Fresh asses. Which they are eagerly busting.
Okay, now I kind of want the ad to be real.
Perv!
(It's pretty funny now that it's not real.)
