We “shout” so you don’t have to
I would love to see this commercial.
A child comes in from playing outside and is covered in dirt, mud, and grass stains. Instead of quietly smirking and shaking her head, the mom becomes irate and starts screaming at the child about getting his good school clothes dirty. She says that “shout” had better get these stains out or else dad will be using his belt when he gets home.
Switch scenes to terrified child hugging his own knees while sitting on his bed awaiting the beating to come.
Switch scene to cursing mom spraying clothes with “shout”, and a scene of the tumblers on the washing machine going.
Switch scene to dad, with belt in hand, shaking his head over the though of having to beat his child.
Switch scene to mom pulling out the now clean clothes and dad putting his belt back on.
Switch scene to super-relieved son wearing his good school clothes again, and saying “Thank you Shout!”
Than finally a display of the product with “We ‘Shout’ so you don’t have to.”
How ’bout that for truth in advertising?

That would be a fine ad. Perhaps you should start a firm.

The outrage it would spawn would just be more free advertising!

Quoting a Lowenbrau commercial from the 70s, “… you’re a genius.”

We know that fear is Madison Avenue’s second-favourite tool (after sex appeal). I predict that we’d see quite a lot of young children with facial bruising toddling in to buy Shout with their own pocket money.
Sure I’m going to Hell, but at least you’re coming with me.

100 points to the first person that shoots this and puts it on youtube. It will go viral and have more affect that any ad will.
Won’t cost J&J a dime.

Of course you do. To quote the author: “there’s not a man alive who wouldn’t leap at the chance to deploy some Siz today. . .FLAMMABLE WHIPPED CREAM.” Hell, I’m not a man and I want it.
March 17th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Holy fucking christ
I want. I really, really want. Who do I have to screw to get some of this stuff?
This+black powder+five hundred firecrackers+three pumpkins=good time.
March 17th, 2009 at 2:28 pm
We should start some sort of campaign to get this stuff made again. That and other stuff like lawn darts.
March 17th, 2009 at 8:03 pm
Holy crap, I was just reading the ad more carefully, and now I want that stuff manufactured, and I want crack added to the machine to make it work faster! If nothing else, imagine the practical jokes, mainly ones involving a smoker and ice cream…
