That's not going any further than the Jimi Hendrix advertisement for Pepsi they did a few years ago. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif (ahem.......and that was pretty funny!)

I think it's a very well done ad.

Years ago I used to drink the non-diet versions of Pepsi and Coke. As I remember it, Pepsi beat Coke hands down, in my opinion. I even took the "Pepsi challenge" at the state fair, and was able to observe as others took it. Pepsi won consistently.

Eventually I converted to the diet versions, and grew accustomed to the diet sodas. Once I became accustomed, the sugared version started tasting as bad to me, as the diet version probably does to the regular soda drinkers.

In the diet versions, Coke beats Pepsi. That's all my subjective opinion, of course.

Uhm, the ad doesn't get me. If I were that kid and liked Pepsi, I'd buy 3 pepsi's. I guess he can afford to blow money on 2 soda's he won't drink!

He should be spanked for wasting food too! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I certainly didn't find it offensive...but the question is, if you thought it was offensive, why did you post it here?

I just wanted to share thats all. If the kid was willing to waste money just to get Pepsi, then it shows how unwanted, or how much more wanted, Pepsi is I guess.

I didn't even know there was a plug-in.
Must be something that's already on my computer. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

It's something common to most machines - just plays Windows Media Files directly in the browser. I've had that plugin for ages, even if Windows didn't install it itself way back when I built this machine - It's safe. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Don't sweat it, it's no big deal. It certainly isn't offensive, and I didn't think it was even entertaining. It's just another mediocre advertisement... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif

My humble Second Opinion,
I did not need the plugin...meaning I already have it, and my computer is adware/spyware/virus/keylogger...etc. free.
