Oh, piss off.

If this skit is true - and I'm highly skeptical - these creatives should get a raise immediately, as they exemplify exactly what it takes to succeed in advertising. They managed to take subtle clues in a small window of time to create an ad that reflects the culture that surrounds them. Nothing is original, just influenced, and this includes ads. Advertisements are as much an influence on people as people are an influence on advertisements.

So now that you say that, "Advertisements are as much an influence on people as people are an influence on advertisements" then you could agree that this skit, or at least what is tells, is true

He clearly has a clever way of switching the envelope, and all the 'subliminal' stuff that the guys 'saw in their taxi ride' were just filmed after. Do you actually see the guys in the cab watching the Harp-sweatered children walk by? No. You see the guys in the taxi looking out of the window, followed by footage of the Harp-sweatered children. They're suggesting to *you* that this is what the executives saw, but that's a false implication. Still, amazingly well put together.

haha, that's kinda creepy. He did the same thing in another episode with this woman in an office, whistling music behind her back. :D
