My Bank is My Laxative
gawd, i was in my bank over lunch (Nedbank) and saw one of their newer "...are they really listening?'" campaign ads playing on the inhouse tv's - and i noticed the focus character [who is supposed to represent Joe (Joanne?) Public]was the same woman from that terrible senokot (with senna) laxative ad...the one where she keeps dumping stuff into her bag as a metaphor for constipation...now this doesnt always apply, but really, all i ended up doing was making some kind of twisted association between banks and laxatives. or worse, some extreme version of anal-retentivity. (im sure this ad is not the first thing to inspire such thought regarding banks actually...) someone shoulda had some kind of foresight here....really... especially with nedbank, a company who is desperately trying to rev up their image...
