Poll question: What Is Your Favorite Vonage PEOPLE DO STUPID THINGS Ad?
Edited on Tue May-17-05 10:02 PM by DistressedAmerican
I love their "People Do Stupid Things Everyday" ad campaign. I'm not sure if everyone gets them or if it is just local.

I especially love the one where the guy cuts down a tree and tries desperately and in vain to PUSH the monsterous thing in a different direction than it is falling.

Needless to say the forces of gravity make sure his car is a pancake!

Here Is A Vintage Stupid Thing (Not From The Ads) That People Have Done In Past (For Your Visual Stimulation)!

2. It Is A Bit Hard To Get Out Of Your Head!!!
I usually hate being marketed to be people whose services I already use! But, I'll make an exception for these guys...

3. Those are the ladies from Kill Bill...
They're in the scene in the nightclub where Uma goes to kick Lucy Liu and co's butts.

I think they're called....the Ya-ya's?

I could be wrong.
