The most inventive tear-off phone number street ad ever was for penis circumcision.


(click image) I didn't post this back in 2008, but I should have. Adme.ru just included it in a round-up of recent creative tear-off phone number ads. Most of them were for dentists or beauty salons, and featured tear-off teeth and hair—rather pedestrian stuff. But this one, for a Turkish circumciser, is superb. I hope it brought him lots of penes to be snipped. Previously in: clever street ads. Previously in: stupid street ads. Previously in: racist street ads. Previously in: sick street ads. Previously in: sad street ads.

"come" on, this is so obvious... and so lame. Talk about taking a simple idea and working backwards to see how it could be "executed" in "media". One more example of how 'creatives' in advertising are really only interested in stroking their own ego (among other things).

Well of course that's all "creatives" are interested in——you got any "real news?"

Turning circumcision into a prim recreation celebrated for its inventiveness is as abased as circumcision's turning male anatomy into a functionalist tool celebrated for its lack of an "inefficient" foreskin.
