Subject: Bad idea

In "The Road to Kona" supplement to this months Triathlete Magazine there is an ad for Ironman Nutrition depicting a mother riding a bicycle with her child. The mother is wearing a helmet , unfortunately the daughter is not and  is riding on the handle bar of the bike.

What are these people thinking?

Dude, it's an ad. Believe it or not, ads do NOT depict real life. I learned this the first time I ordered a _____ beer and hot babes failed to enter my life as I took the first drink.

What!?!  You mean that advertisers play fast and loose with the truth.  Do you actually mean that a keg of Duff beer will not transform prim proper ladies into wild wanton women!?!  What is the world coming to when you can't believe advertisers?

I am still waiting for the hot chicks to come in to the bathroom and compliment the closeness of my shave every morning. Damn razor companies.

I too have been victimized by this false advertising... I doused myself with three cans of AX body spray hoping to experience the "Ax Effect" described in the commercials... not ONCE was I amorously assaulted on the elevator, in the office, or in the aisle of a grocery store.  So far the only "Ax effect" that I've noted is everyone in the car rolling their windows down when I get in.

I think it was Britney Spears and her baby on the bike.

 Or something

Hey, some of that Axe stuff smells GOOD. Like, follow the guy around inhaling deeply good I'm just sayin.

 

Mix it with the smooth shave, the right beer, and the slightly drunk beer girl and you just might get the elevator assault. Don't give up.

Shoot.  I thought this was going to be a thread about the old SNL fake commercials for "Bad Idea Jeans".

Such an ad in  Triathlete mag is pretty heavy on the hypocrisy considering a friend of mine was DQed at last years Hartsville Oly for straddling his bike without his helmet.  Seems like you'd always want your PR, even your advertisers, to be depicted correctly.
