I’ll Always Eat Eclairs: But You Don’t Have to Make An Ad Where People’s Heads Explode When They Eat It To Test Me

Eclairs is a classic Indian chocolate. Oh, it may be popular in other countries, but I don’t care. If Eclairs was priced at Rs 10, even though it was worth all of Re 1, I’d still buy it. As it happens, inflation has made Eclairs ‘worth’ Rs. 2 . So, there is no way anyone would stop eating Eclairs.

Except, maybe if the new advertisement for Eclairs shows people’s heads exploding every time someone eats one. So, guess what I see on TV today…

The new ad for Eclairs shows people’s heads exploding every time someone eats Eclairs. Is it me or did a copywriter mix up his ad house’s bid for the free anti-smoking campaign for the Government with the Cadbury account? Oh, yes, some of the middling-cool kids still say “this’ll blow your mind”, but no one, and I mean no one wants to see people’s heads explode. One of these days the dweeb that approved this ad will cross my path, and he will know my wrath.

I don’t really blame the writer. Writers are crazy. This is why they pay their stuck up bosses more: To stop shit like this staining my screen. Enjoy.

Why?
