Worst Ad Ever?

What do you think is the Worst Advertisement Ever?

My Worst Ad Ever is actually an ad campaign that came out in the 1990's.

This campaign was so bad because it amounted to the business just giving up.

Throwing in the towel if you will.

Remember the Seinfeld episode where George started wearing sweatpants in public. Jerry's quote from that episode pretty much sums up this ad campaign:

"You know the message you're sending out to the world with these sweatpants? You're telling the world, 'I give up. I can't compete in normal society. I'm miserable, so I might as well be comfortable.'"
- Jerry in The Pilot

Have you guessed the ad campaign? Probably not because it sucked that bad...


The Hardees Star.

Impressive isn't it! Who designed that, Dreamworks or Industrial Light & Magic?

Who can be the voice of the star? I got it, the star of that blockbuster Dirty Work, and the man who lent his voice to one of the talking animals in Dr. Doolittle 3 (which didn't even have Eddie Murphy like the first 2) - Norm McDonald

A grubby, yellow, five pointed, with a stupid smiley face, canadian sounding, star.

Somewhere out there, Speedy McGreedy is looking over at Gilbert Giddyup and Super Mouth and shaking his head in disgust.

Kick-ass thickburger!

The aforementioned Thickburger is consistently the best hamburger you can buy. You need to recognize this simple fact in a subsequent post.
