You MUST be at least as tall as our towers to buy a condo.
It's time for the most idiotic visual culled from the last week's worth of terrible real estate ads placed in the New York Times and Wall Street Journal. This beaut is from an ad for Turnberry Towers/Las Vegas. It's an endless supply of stupid, so, see you next time.

She's just like the donkey stuck between two equally good-looking hay stacks that starves to death. She's going to end up living in the Port Authority ladies room because she can't decide which co-op to buy.
Cool, Tree Farm ;-)

Redfoot angry!! Here's a link to this great article in last week's Times about using sex to sell real estate:

You know, I just don't think this ad is that bad. I'm not saying the ad is delivering any emotional or brand value, but the visual concept simply isn't so bad that it deserves the criticism, IMO.
The fact you care to take it literally doesn't really make it a poor ad. Since you're so literal, it might interest you to know that the KIX rabbit is only animated and not a real rabbit who goes crazy for cereal. And the Jolly Green Giant... well, I won't destroy every ad myth for you all at one time.
Thank you anon. A little reality at a time is best.
I'm sure this happens to your readers all the time copyranter but your anger makes me tingle.
Shut up, tingling anon.
Oh Copyranter, I started a tree farm in Central America, and it really wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. I'd stick with the day job. You really learn to appreciate Target after you live in the third world.
I live in such a hot real estate market that the builders have stopped advertising and stuff. Just nice to see one of these.. I misss revenue soooooooo much
You should take the tingling as flattery copyranter. A man who expresses his emotions is always more attractive than a man who bottles them in. Don't let cynicism obscure a genuine compliment.
I'm fucking sorry.
You're fucking forgiven.
It looks like she's trying to decide which one to climb.
Decisions, decisions...King Kong was never faced with such a quandry.
