The Magical Ray-Ban Chameleon



All you hipsters out there... this one's for you!

So what do you think? Real? Fake? I'm going with fake. Very fake. Nice display though. The rough cut Youtube-styled production is what really catches the attention of the younger generation these days. Ray-Ban effectively shows us their variety of shades while entertaining at the same time. I'm off to shop for some striped glasses.

The name of the song is "Eat My Bear" by Yuksek.

Puma L.I.F.T.



Puma puts on a great performance touting their "Light injected footwear" tagline in this bright spot. Ah yes, I can still drop lame puns like it's my job.

The literal translation advertises the new 173 gram running shoe. I didn't even realize until the end that they weren't even wearing actual clothes.

The name of the song is "Underwear" by The Magnetic Fields.

Wendy's Croquet



I had some spare time so I figured I'd post for the first time in forever. Behold: civilized construction workers. Wendy's goes for a soft sell here as they flaunt the high society lavishness of their new Gourmet Mushroom Swissburger.

I do say, fair lad, give croquet a go as it is a most delicate sport.
