over several months now, from time to time, some really stupid
advertising-texts appear on tv (i watch german channels only,
since i have a satelite-receiver). at first i didn't notice how
stupid they are, but after listening and realising the meaning,
they really turn out to be total crap concerning the message
they have. here are just a few i remember, but be asured there
are much much more. all those ads were in german, so i added a
translated version too - i hope i got it as precise as possible.

if you think that all those examples are just pretty ok, and not
disturbing at all, you might have already been brainwashed by the
stupidity of advertising, which is... bad for you (but good for
advertising agencies)!

Tue, 26 Feb 2008as every year in february the ITnT trade fair took place. and as every year i went there to have a day off from everyday's business. the trade fair itself was boring as every year, but i enjoyed meeting friends. i also enjoyed the girls handing out flyers and other give-aways. all in all it was a really relaxing day in vienna.
more visual impressions can be found here.
