Well when I used to drive by the Nabisco plant in North Jersey, I too would get nauseous by the scent of whatever it was they happened to be baking that day. YEEEEECH.

The May issue of National Geographic ran an ad for the
Toyota 4Runner that featured the SUV in a remote location, with the headline:
No intelligent life out here. Just you.
But wait, there's more:
If you’re going to be a copywriter, you have to be clever. You have to be a conscious of flow and metre, of metaphor and wordplay. You also have to be aware of what you are actually saying.
If:
There is no intelligent life out here
and:
I am out here
then:
I am not intelligent life
Therefore:
Toyota thinks people who buy 4runners are stupid.
QED.
This isn’t to say that the concept sucks… just the execution. The sad part is, I’m sure the guy who wrote this is brilliant, and just happened to be half asleep the day he wrote that. I’m sure he’s kicking himself now.
