@benedicttown: Adverts ruined by committee

celestialoyster :

I can hear the stressed marketing people advocating for "succumb to the crumb" 😭

Álvaro :

Seaspiracy not being Conspirasea

Pipa Duque :

It’s legal, always legal

Milk :

Are they dipping their fries into beans??

BuzZkilL :

Do people get accidentally hypnotized alot in the UK?

Jeff :

S’more Oreos instead of S’MOREOS

lady_jardin :

They don’t even use breadcrumbs on their chicken!!!

Bethany Black :

Haha, that was my Pringles tweet😂 it’s always so funny seeing them in the wild, my name clipped off

Ste Ent :

Cadbury's Flake Snow. Should obviously be called Snow Flake.

BecauseImBilly :

As a millennial who works in marketing I can GUARANTEE that this final (bad) decision was made by a Gen X or Boomer marketing manager…

Lux :

As someone who’s worked for years as a creative director for marketing, that’s exactly how it plays out, and guess who they blame when the watered down final campaign falls flat

Soph Clem :

Now You See Me sequel not being ‘Now You Don’t’ fills me with unfathomable rage

Jordan Raskopoulos :

This is the thing about the Sydney Sweeney ad. There’s no way someone didn’t bring up at a meeting that it might be seen as a little bit fashy… unless.

frauke :

The Kardashian-Crumbl cookie collab not being named Krumbl??? What happened there

emily challis :

I once passed by a coffee shop sign outside (that wasn't Starbucks) in fall that side, "Pumpkin pie and everything nice"..... I was outraged. SURELY.... SURELY you mean pumpkin spice and everything nice.....still haunts me

Cumberland Carnivores 🇨🇦 :

No, actually. They couldn’t use it because “Succumb to the crumb” is an existing slogan owned by Cadbury, and using it without permission would infringe on their trademark rights. 👌

runesubakasa :

“Merry Crisp-mas” was genius bro. You think of that off the bat?

char :

Worked in advertising and can't tell you how many really funny adverts aren't passed through legal.

Kj :

I think about merry Pringles often 🙈

Elizabeth Goodwin :

Corporate is a WASTE OF TIME!

Jonathon James Pries :

When Hershey’s made a feminist bar, and highlighted the “She” in the name instead of the more obvious “HER” RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING

Jocy :

I used to work in events marketing and was writing copy for an ad for a butchery awards event. The headline I wrote was 'The steaks are high'...my boss changed it to 'stakes'. I handed my notice in less than a month later.

Juilletquatrevingtneuf :

See it. Say it. Sorted….surely it should be ‘Sort it’! This plagues me 🥲

M.M. Auto Detailing :

“Pringles all the way” but what do I know I’m just in a comment section
