Old Spice Campaign: Biting the Hand that Feeds
Is it just me or is this new ad campaign by Old Spice a tad over the top? Maybe I'm being a downer but when I saw it during an NFL game on the weekend both my son and I felt awkward and uncomfortable.

I like hearing about people's lives, and about their projects, and about the art they make. Mr. Ghomeshi spoke with Billy … [Read more...]
