Best line - "GK: ...based around storytelling. It's poetry... you got situations where you bump into a pregnant girl, but she's so pretty, and you wish you could have her, but she's pregnant and she's married."
Love it - so if she was just pregnant, or just married, go for it! But pregnant and married, whoa, slow down...
That's funny, because I heard some of the leaked tracks and was getting more of a "was thinking about the implications of our consumer culture for this earth, our island home, then had a fifth birthday party for my daughter and maybe the pony ride concessioneer was looking pretty foxy, and then the pony got loose and trampled the $1500 cake my wife had picked out, and then like a month before that I had a dream where I was getting it on with a pony smeared in cake" sort of feel to it. I think the word I'm looking for is "whimsical".
@snugbug: Every ad run in the past ten years in Japan is better than anything from his firm. The freaking AFLAC ads in Japan are hilarious and cute, let alone the wacky local shit.
Americans advertising is just a shit sandwich from top to bottom. If you pay attention, it appeals to one demographic: those who identify themselves as stupid.
Yeah, but Crispin Porter + Bogusky still does the coolest creative crap in advertising today. I'm basing my opinion on a book called HOOPLA, which I love--sort of a retrospective of their work. Any ad creative types willing to back me up on this, or am I whistling "Dixie" out of my ass?
@RollsRoyceRevenge: You're messing with me, aren't you, smarty-pants? The actual first line is "This book is good luck." I just checked.. =) OOPS, the nickel just dropped.. Nevermind. As you were..
@snugbug: Crispin is one of the best, but some of their new stuff is really edging toward crap. I'd say agencies like Droga5, Goodby, Wexley SFG etc have a leg up because they're not ruled by a douche.

"Wait. How am I supposed to be successful without a job?
I hate to answer a question with a question but what is you definition of success?"
Well, Mokey-Fraggle-After-The-Sex-Change, probably to be able to proof my own rhetorical question-driven interview.
That would be me definition of success.

KFC's new tagline is "Unthink". Need I say more?
