Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Wrong Chair!




This is Complete Living by Al-Ghanim's ad for furniture.
Found in today's Arab Times
Ok, what were they thinkin? To me, this ad just screams, "Oh my God, I bought the wrong chair. I think I am going to cry." Or, "My husband has just left me for another woman and all I have left is this big chair." Or maybe even, "Ok, so I bought this big chair, but holy crap, I have to pay 200 fils for parking because I've been in the store for an hour at The Avenues and they don't validate." Or perhapsee, "C'mon you guys, take the damn photo and I'm outa here!" Alluring? Not.

Yo, ad peeps - the people in the photos should be happy or at the very least, not appear to be close to tears. Would somebody pass the Kleenex? Sniffle.

    Or...

    "Waaaaaaaah, I'm SO bored."

    "Yet another purchase and *SIGH* I'm still not happy."

    "What do you mean...the lime green hijab doesn't go with the mauve outfit? Shit! Maybe if I hang out by the purple chair, nobody will notice."

    Snookster: That's not a sexy pout, it's a scowl. Sexy pout would require more lipgloss. tee hee.

Thanks for stopping by and it is so nice to hear from you! Just a few words on commenting: Through this blog, I won’t tolerate intolerance, hatred, finger-pointing or personal vendettas. If I even get those types of comments, I will most likely delete them because I believe it defeats the purpose of positive efforts and energy. Stop the hate.
