Appalling Ad

I just found an appalling advertisement in an old version of Maclean's magazine (2005).


I had to take a double look at it because I thought I was seeing things. Then I realized the ad was for a Diabetes contraption. What?!

The image is if a woman tied up to a big target and a man throwing knives at her. The caption reads, "You better have good aim." I won't even tell you what it's supposed to be advertising yet- I'll have to scan it and post it up so you all can see it.

Man, the advertising industry blows my mind. I used to write so many letters to companies about their despicable ad campaigns; perhaps it's time to start again...
