Sweet song by Greg Laswell. Sparkling video with Elijah Wood. Enough soda references for now.

The next one for you being smart ass in any situation. In any combination that you can imagine. The original one is by Simon Munnery (go, buy the brilliant book with his wise words here). It is an ideal smartass-phrase because you can replace “wisdom” with nearly every word you that suits your purpose. Common sense. Daily business. Romantic candle-light dinner. Sexual attraction. Appendix removal surgery. Though, maybe you better just use the original one.

Walked around in the sun in Saint Paul today, thought of this track and said to myself: Oui, exactly.

A while ago, before all that disastrous blog deleting happened, there was a series on this blog called “Smart ass things to say in situations that are not”. Okay, there were only two posts. But I will go on with it. Because I believe there is nothing more important than having a smart ass phrase to throw when you usually shouldn’t be able to come up with one. So the series will be continued and today start with a new smart ass phrase extraordinaire. But before that I’ll give you some kind of a backissue of the two previous ones. Here they are.
This one is actually wrong. It should say “There is no situation so bad that it can’t get worse” but to be honest with you I couldn’t be bothered to change that as I lost the psd-file. So you will have to stick with the “thing” and quote a wrong phrase. Which on the other hand could make you appear even more smart ass. For your re-interpretation abilities. Oh, you smarty pants.
This one was told me by lovely Lauren in a situation when I really needed this reminder. So maybe it’s not that of a smart ass thing to say in a situation that is not but a good advise to yourself or others. Who in return could consider you as a lovely smart ass.
So, bring on the trumpets. Here is a new one. To be fair, I have bloody stolen it from the fabulous book “Taxi Driver Wisdom”. It’s hilarious and so true. But please don’t make the mistake to understand it literally. It might be true as well but I love to apply to almost everything. Procter and Gamble marketers for instance. Or…well, I just like it. And now get up from your desk, leave the office and apply the cheap underwear to anything in the world. The birds, the bees, Russian Billionaires.

Sometimes I just can’t help myself and listen to strange and certifiably creepy music the whole day. Since yesterday it’s one of these days again and this is what I’m listening to. I found another song by the same, erm, artist during some research on a platform called Go Green Tube. But I especially like this one here. Sweet but indefinitely naughty. Please don’t judge me. Oh you know, my taste plays nasty little shenanigans on me sometimes.

I wanted to post this last year but didn’t find the time. When things went a bit difficult last year I found this on the website of D&AD and it cleared up the grey sky a bit. It’s always good to hear that it’s not wrong to think advertising is boring and that our work should be more than just throwing rocks at people’s heads. So I thought it would be a nice start into the new year to have Tony Davidson talking about the way he ticks and the first advertising campaign that I remember not being annoyed by, Flat Eric. The little yellow, fluffy fella was one of the reasons I finally ended up in advertising.

Don’t play around with your blog and its database. You unfortunately could delete every fucking post and comment of the last 10 months. But I embrace change today. Brand new start. All better than before. Welcome.
