Mmm... Tasty

This is exactly how I want to envision my fish in a can.


I don't even need the ad to be in English to understand.

They don't even know...

This advertisement literally gave me a laughing attack. I got off my bus to transfer to the sky train and looked back at my bus, as I often do, to see all of the window sitters... sitting on toilets. I started laughing so hard I cried. Some locals saw me laughing and looked utterly confused, so I pointed to the bus and they started laughing too. The best part about the people in the bus? They didn't even know...

Double Size THIS.

I was eating at BK the other day (how totally American of me), and I saw an ad for the Chic'n Crisp, BBQ Bacon, and Pork BBQ burgers.


The best part of this ad is not the shields depicting the types of meat: chicken, beef and pork.

The best part, without a doubt, is wondering whether or not these burgers come "with fries and a coke at regular size" or actually "with fries and a coke at regular size + fries and a coke." As seen below...

Thai Delights

Talk about some ads that really make you want chocolate. I'm not much of a chocolate fan, but with the strawberry cream and chocolate basically oozing out, I couldn't help it. I had to go to 7-11 and try one as soon as I got off the sky train. I still miss my Milkyways and Snickers from home, but these Thai delights will do for now.

Building Blocks of Life

Emporium, one of the premiere shopping malls in Bangkok, opened a Lego display last week that is absolutely unbelievable. The display includes work stations for children, Bangkok building and landmark replicas made from Legos, a stage where kids can show their own creativity through dancing, singing and acting, and (of course) lego products. Every time I've been by the mall, the Lego area is completely packed with tourists and locals alike, snapping photos and encouraging their children to play. It's a wonderful world when busy adults can be taken back to youth, remembering it's always an adventure to create.

Fast Just Got a Little Lazier

Why do we love fast food so much? It can't be pure quality or dining experience. It's not because it's cheap (there's no dollar menu here). It's not because it's fast (most items are made to order). We like fast food, not because we want it fast, but because we like things to be easy.

The fast food in Bangkok allows for an easier time: Fast food delivery. It might be the greatest thing since, well, fast food.

Heineken

Talk about a new stance about global warming. All political and personal views aside, I like that this buzz word has taken on a new meaning in Heineken ads. People are all about living "green," buying grocery bags from recycled materials, and wearing clothes reminding people to recycle, etc. But would anyone actually sacrifice a cold beer for the sake of the environment? Probably not. Thank you Heineken for helping us survive global warming!
