I saw this ad on TV a few days ago. At first I thought it was a joke.

Dubstep? Check.

Stilted, fake testimonials? Check.

Hustling pills to kids? Check.

Skeevy as hell? Check.

"aired on Cartoon Network" really?

Who knew Vivarin was still around. I haven't seen one of their commercials since the 80s.

Really didn't need much advertising.
Vivarin and NoDoz are essentially the breadth of name-brand "Alertness Aids"

 

[hesido]

"Alertness Aids"..

I wouldn't wanna get any type of Aids.


Edit: Oh, looking at the advertisements next to it, some advertisments look like the fake / mock ads in Robocop / Running Man (which are used for satirical purposes.) Don't know what to feel!

Why would you even want those when coffee itself is so delicious?

You spelt tea wrong.

Disgusting. Let gamers drink their Halo Mountain Dew in peace.

you're both right

But what should I eat to that, WHAT SHOULD I EAT TO THAT?

To avoid the sugar/cream. And don't talk about splenda or any other fake supplement tainting my deliciously fatty coffee

 

[pvpness]

Meh, the ads are creepy, but the idea is sound. Why drink caffeine when you can just rail it up?

 

[rrs]

50/50 hot chocolate and coffee is the way to go, but seriously there's a zillion different kind of alert pills. Then again, playing games is no reason to chug the caffiene

 

[Easy_D]

Oh god, I forgot there are people who don't drink their coffee black.

 

[RMI]

can't we all agree that Hong Kong style coffee tea mix is the best?

 

[QisTopTier]

Caffine addiction is a serious thing. Why the fuck was this ad on Cartoon Network

 

[ponpo]

Just have some refreshing cold brewed coffee and get some sleep (~￣▽&#65507~

Meh. This was aired during Bob's Burgers, which itself occupies the 11 PM time slot on Adult Swim. Hardly marketed to the core Cartoon Network audience.
