Biking to Work

posted by on April 7 at 10:15 AM

Sent by Slog tipper Jen, the (Canadian, sigh) counterpoint to the State Farm ad that had me so riled up last week:

Update: Now with new headline that makes sense! (Our Slogging software likes to fill in headlines for us, and, well, it’s early.)

Four fingers of scotch, a pat on the firm ass, and off our green Canadian businessman goes to the office! What a guy we can envy. Just follow the sharrows and all the dumb fuckers in SUVs will just give you metres and metres of room. And German girls are hotter than Canadians, they generally bike, walk, or take public transport. It's nothing new here, it's just life. And the U3 runs every 4 minutes.

Great ad, but I was so disturbed by the kids in the car not in a car seat I had trouble paying attention to the rest of it.

@8:

Totally green-screened, nothing to worry about.

And the smoking pregnant lady probably wasn't really pregnant, either.

So driving to work is like smoking while pregnant, beating a child and letting a child jump around in a convertable.

So, Canadians advertising execs are just as stupid as ECB.

Congrats on being completely retarded.

It's great that guy is biking to work, but biking while carrying a briefcase? Dude needs to get a backpack.

Biking with a backpack is a crime against nature. Get panniers.
