Some Mad Men Live in A Mad Men World

CltHolday2009_72-1.jpg

In the "it's been done to death" category comes this holiday season card from Denver-based Cultivator Advertising & Design. Tired as Mad Men themed efforts have become, it's interesting to note the house in which the photoshoot took place - Cultivator Creative Director Monte Mead - is permanently tricked out Mad Men style. That's how the dude lives 24/7/365.

Do You Need A Hand Job?

You can have two for five dollars. Isn't that a great deal? There's really nothing else to say about this commercial so we're just going to keep writing until there are enough words to properly wrap around the image to the left or at least fill enough space so it doesn't look like we're in a rush because the relatives are coming over and we need to clean the bathroom but first run to the store to buy some scrubbing bubbles because...oh wait...we wouldn't want to surprise the relatives when they take a shower because, ya know, the bubbles might tell them to "use the loofa."

Fireworks to the Face is Never A Good Thing

We don't understand a word of this Dutch commercial but the end will have you on the floor laughing. Well, that is if you actually have a sense of humor. Which seems to be in short supply for some these days.

You Will Cry if You Watch This Safe Driving PSA

Wow. Wow. Wow. We thought we'd seen the most intense driving safety commercial when Northern Ireland's Road Safety Authority came out with its The Faster the Speed the Bigger the Mess PSA But, hands down, this compilation of Australia's Victoria Transport Commission commercials from over the years now tops our list of the most horrifically intense and moving PSA we've ever seen. Wow.
