Smart has the Brains. Stupid has the Balls. Be stupid.

This, my friends, is the best ad campaign I have seen in the longest time.
I mean, look at the ingenuity.
Just plain brilliant.
Now, my opinion of Diesel as a brand and the kind of clothes they make isn't the best. So, the first time I saw this ad campaign this scene played out in my head.
Advertising guys hired by them sitting in a room.
Guy 1: This is friggin' pissing off. What the pops is going to grab eyeballs?
Guy 2: True. Even the clothes are ugly. I mean, who wears diesel anyway? Torn overpriced clothes.
Guy 3: Stupid People.
*An 'idea-light bulb' moment*


But, what might have started as a joke has now become one of my favourite ad campaigns EVER.
Just see- Just see-





My love for this campaign may stem from my love of stupid people. But really, this should be the gospel of life.
Being stupid is being smart.
Be stupid.

Great, Nice view. Being stupid has the advantage of being just plain stupid and one can get away with anything.
