yourproducthere.jpg

Oh yes, we’ve written about porn and advertising many, many time before. Just do a search for “porn” and you’ll see for yourself. Well, here’s another to add to the list. Adrants reader Alisa tipped us to the Blank is Like Blank site on which ten “advertising is like porn” statements were made.

– You shouldn’t stay in the same position for too long.
– If it’s good, it transcends language.
– Working in the industry will affect your family life at some point.
– It creates careers for art-school dropouts.
– The same concepts are endlessly recycled.
– You fast-forward through the boring stuff.
– The Internet took it to a whole new level.
– It’s hard to transition out of.
– They both have weird self-congratulatory award shows.
– Only the people who create it are delusional enough to call it art.
