Dismembered Body Parts Illustrate Belgian Government Group Benefit We had no idea government groups could be so creative with advertising but we'll surely give a nod to a current Belgian Kafka.be campaign for illustrating how it can make administration easier. Nip/Tuck Gets On MySpace Train Apparently an avid viewer of FX's Nip/Tuck, Bucky Turco points out FOX has tapped into its own network of 25 million MySpace users and has created a profile for "The Carver." Starbucks Does Coffee On the Roof Thing Milking, but brilliantly maximizing the "Hey dude, you left your coffee on the roof of your car" scenario, Starbucks has done just that - left its coffee on the roofs of cars in San Francisco so people will go nuts trying to tell the driver - a paid Starbucks stunt marketer - he's, yes, left his coffee on the roof of his car. Flickr member Thomas Hawk snapped a shot of one of the vehicles and recounts his being had by the stunt. Gawker Provides Media Party List If you're in need of some Holiday cheer and you're into the whole media schmooze-fest social scene, Gawker has compiled a list (from WWD.com) of the many media-related social events this season for your party going pleasure. Teen and Lucky kicked off the season last night with parties at La Esquina and Hotel QT respectively. Chinese Coke Billboard Goofy...Or Not There's something about Chinese culture that makes relatively snark-free advertising like this Coke billboard possible. Of course we have no idea what we're talking about because we've never been to China. But we do know, or at least we're told, there's a bit more innocent goofiness in the culture that makes this stuff possible. Of course, we could be completely wrong about that notion too. Super Buff Women Promote Super Buff Phones OK, we have nothing against people doing all they can to stay in shaped but when women work out so freakishly they end up looking like, well, a female body builder, it's just kinda gross. Call us sexist but everyone's entitled to an opinion including Virgin Mobile UK which has launched Super Buff, a site promoting its "totally buff phones" with help from super buff women. It's all quite hilarious, though. Adland reveals the work was created by 12foot6 and Rainey Kelly Campbell Roalfe/Y&R. Sony's Street PSP Campaign Getting Tagged, Ragged While initially it seemed Sony's PSP street chalk drawing campaign in several cities around the U.S. was being well received by some (us), others have dished out a bit of backlash by defacing the drawings and calling for an end to corporations' attempts to co-op the graffiti art form. AdFreak sums up the issue pointing to a rant over at Gothamist, an online petition to stop the practice and street art blog Wooster Collective's collection of PSP street art.
