Absolut perfect.
My first advertisement I chose is about Absolut Vodka. In this poster they are showing a girl that ordered a male and you can make him whatever you want. I really like this advertisement because they are saying that if you drink Absolut Vodka, you can make anything happen. “In an Absolut world,” you can make anything be what you want it to be. This advertisement is mostly trying to persuade girls because the picture has a girl in it putting a man together and reading directions. I think this advertisement really works because it makes me want to go out and get some Absolut Vodka to see if I can get any man I want. Another way to look at it is that when you drink their vodka, people will think you’re cool, so every type of man will want you and you will have decide which one you want. All of the Absolut Vodka ads are really interesting and intriguing; you guys should check other ones out. Another thing that they do in their ads is add sexual things to make it seem like drinking their vodka will let you have a good time. This is probably true, because when you drink alcohol that usually happens; you lose all your judgment and that allows you to have a good time.

Smoking kills: Fact.
For my second advertisement I decided to do a backwards one and say that smoking is bad, instead of trying to make it seem cool. If I don’t have enough words after this one then I will use an advertisement that wants people to smoke. I really like this advertisement because it’s really artistic. One of the things about it is that you don’t even have to read the poster; by looking at it you can tell what is trying to say. A lot of people may be offended by this ad because they smoke and they don’t want to be responsible for other peoples’ deaths because of their bad habit. Disturbing as it is, that is a fact. This poster makes the problem seem much worse that it really it, but they are just trying to prove a point. I’m really against smoking cigarettes because they seem silly to smoke because they are only temporary and when you use them it really hurts you and other people around you. I hate it when people smoke outside of the dorms because you have your fan blowing in all the smoke that they are exhaling and it makes your room smell really bad. Especially when people are smoking cigars because those really make your room smell. Anyway, this ad really speaks to me because it is really on target, and it really makes you think about what you’re doing. You’re not only killing yourself, but others around you.



Since I have nothing else to write about, and I need to have 1000 words, I’m going to look at an ad that wants you to smoke and buy their cigarettes. So here is an ad for Tipalet cigarettes. I thought this ad was pretty funny just because it is totally not true at all. They are trying to make it seem like their product make you really cool, and you can get any girl you want by blowing the smoke in their face. If a guy did that to me, I would hit him, hard. This is kind of a backwards look at the first ad I had because it was about a girl getting a guy and this one is about a guy getting any girl. I can’t get over that fact of how funny this ad is because I think it’s from a magazine before cigarette ads were banned and when smoking was new and cool. I think smoking has died down some, and a lot more people don’t think it is that cool, which makes this ad hilarious.
