The Ten Worst Ads On MySpace

by Jane []
Published on 20/12/06 in Advertising
MySpace's advertising policies are being cared for by the guy who thought that blue, red and Diarrhea Orange look good together.

1) Create Your Own Zwinky
Your average thirteen year old logs onto MySpace and finds this naked little tart staring back at her, wanting to be dressed in the sluttiest school girl outfit imaginable. Hey look! I gave her red pubes and made her look like she's about to eat someone's ass!

2) eGet-A-Disease! OMG!
Grammar???!!! Punctuation???!! Spelling?... When you wanna slut it up on MySpace, it's soooooo not necessary!!!

If your kids aren't met by a naked teen when they log in, they might be treated to the fake AIM conversation between Blonde_Chick and Oh_So_Single
ihatemyspacemore
Meet creeps on the website that instructs kids to "come spin the bottle and start flirting!" and promises you "hotties in your inbox." The younger and more Zwinky, the better.


3) People Who Have Boyfriends Are Happy. People Who Don't Are Losers.
ihatemyspaceagain
By means of subliminal messages, MySpace lets the youth of today know that you're destined to be bitter and unhappy if you don't have a douchey-looking beefcake to rub yourself all over. I can't help but think, however, that the Yes and No buttons are in the wrong places.


4) The Old DUI Advertisement Trick
ihatemyspaceevenmore
Let's market shit to kids by associating Hollywood party girl glamour with drinking and driving. I mean, DUIs are so hot right now. What's better than drugs, eating disorders and reckless endangerment? IPODS!


5) MILF Watch
Man, it sucks that your mom has had four kids, drives a Kia Sedona and buys Mom jeans from Ross. Way to not be cool, loser.

6) The Webcam Insta-Fame Gag
istillhatemyspacealot
She's gansta and goth at the same time, yo. And via her awesome webcam, you can watch her while you tell her you're sixteen and into the All American Rejects, X-Box and your puppy, Dan. She doesn't have to know that you're forty-five, registered with the state, living in a studio apartment and dressed in a beer-stained singlet. And it's not like she's going to guess, either.


7) Dress Your Zwinky For Da Club Or Da Corner

Here she is again, still strangely pre-pubescent and still with those impressive breasts.


8) The National Lampoon
Can you believe we caught this dumb ho checking herself out, topless? Actually, their words are "Are you ready to see what this naughty hottie is up to?"

Women are stupid bitches. Video them while they're naked and put it on the internet.


8 & 9) Fun With Guns
I can't help but think that associating shooting with insta-cash isn't such a rad idea in the current climate.

Did they say five grand a week for life? They meant a five grand fine, and life.


10) The Multichoice Simpson Test

My guess was "all three", and since the little black check mark skips between Jude, Josh and Adam, it seems that I was right!

Footnote: While researching this buttastic article, I came across this:

Americans even writing "mate" is just wrong, and yet Tom produces this gem in order to get his arse out of any legal trouble when Britain's sex offenders stalk Zwinkies on his site.

How could you forget this gem...



The real victim here is the poor sap that had to design a "fart button" Written on 20/12/06
Good God... Written on 20/12/06
Oh wow, I must have clicked "refresh" a thousand times this morning, and not come across this one! What a... erm... stinker. Written on 20/12/06
I consider it a fine day in my job when I get to design a "Fart" button! Written on 20/12/06
You really bring the class to our office every day. Written on 21/12/06
I am a guy and I often like to dress as a girl. There are only Zwinky's for very usual people. I like to be nude sometimes too.
Is there a patch so I can get nude when I want and dress a guy as a girl when I want.
I live in the real world Its a shame Zwinky cant get real too Written on 16/4/07
When I came across Zwinky it made me go back to my childhood. I think every girl had enjoyed playing with her paper dolls. So, don't be so cruel to innocent games ( I don't mean "out-fart the gorilla")
