Hasta La Creative!

I don’t think Facebook has ever directly insulted me with its ads, and I feel a bit left out. Apparently, being called fat and ugly by the site’s targeted ad mechanism is the hip thing these days. Much of the blame for this has fallen on Facebook itself, but what about the assholes making the mean-spirited ads? Copy like “You’re fat. You don’t have to be” is overly harsh, and youth marketing specialists who know how insecure teenagers are should know better. My point is that someone should put an stop to this negativity. We wouldn’t want the backlash from this crap interfering with the backlash from the ill-fated Facebook movie that’s in the works.
