Orbit ad makes ridiculously tasteless visual melon joke.
(click ad for closer look)Last week, we had Big Tits Friday. I guess this is mini melons Tuesday.
If you were a small-brained creative tasked with coming up with a print ad for new Orbit Maui Melon Mints, this would be your thought process.
...Well it's got to look Hawaiian/tropical. What else? Melon...Melon equals tit, sooo BIG TITTED HULA DANCER with a packet of Orbit stuck between her melons! You chew on tits AND you chew on mints! Wait...the ad's being placed in women-friendly mags, so...the dancer will have to have small tits...and we'll use TWO product shots that cover up her mini melons...and...we won't make her too hot...and we'll put a stupid expression on her face...
Give or take, that's probably close to how it went down. Which leaves us with one question: why the hell did Orbit buy this ad? This Orbit gum ad out of the Czech Republic is bad, but not this bad. related: the altoids ads thread.

Imagine if they were ahi flavored.
should have been coconut flavoured.
its not memorable for the brand and it doesn't make me want to buy them–so, WTF?! why does this ad exist?
Melon and mint.
Melon and mint?
You know, I need an afternoon snack... Lemme get half a cantaloupe and sprinkle crushed tic tacs over the top. That would really hit the spot.
Oddly enough, this is some good gum.
What's up w/ her face though? Looks like it was pasted on from a man.
Now we know what that 5th dentist was recommending instead of sugarless gum....
