Its a good parody of advetisment and the advertisment-consumer relation.

Come on!! You are under estimating our roles as Advertisers !
Advertisers are not all psychics :) just some of them, like this one here.

Ha ha ha.

Question: After the woman "consumer" storms out, what will she do?

Answer: She will go and just consume someone else's products.

Women are the biggest herd-mentality consumer lemmings out there.

We watched this at (my old) job (marketing department of the world's largest consumer goods company), all the marketing folks laughed, commented on how insightful it was, got really motivated. Then we found out we had sushi in the lunch buffet, everyone forgot that whole consumer thing. We went back to our desks and came up with a great new idea for coupons.

I mean it's true that it wouldn't be ethical to trick consumers into thinking that there is a committed romantic relationship when there isn't.

But for the span of thirty seconds, to me the demonstration of respect just jumps off the screen.

Instead of being honest (in a sense) in its expressions of contempt for consumers, Madison Avenue has got to stop feeling contempt.

Just be nice for a change. Those are the brilliant ads. The ones that pay a little compliment and tell a little joke and that say some small genuine thing. It's not that hard. If you do that, I'd be so grateful I'd buy the product even if I didn't want it.

Isn't that the goal?

Be nice. Actually nice. Once consumers recover from the shock, they'll be loyal forever.
