THE PERFECT PEPSI PEOPLE OF THE 1950s...

(click ad to read copy) "Just being around them makes you feel good! They're so wonderful to look at—these slender, handsome active men and women of today." Jesus, just look at fucking Lana and Burt and their Pepsi perfectness. Imagine the serenity. Imagine the conversation. Imagine the sex. Fuckin' terrible 2009. I wish it was the 50s. Glamorous bras cost $1. The girdle ads were surreal puzzles. If wifey burnt dinner, you got shitfaced on Schlitz. And the original Marlboro Man wore Pierre Cardin and lived in Paris. (via)

Is this any more obnoxious than "Tor those who think young" or "Be young, drink Pepsi"?

Their advertising has skewed toward blatant youth-porn regularly.

Oh, I agree. And this one's less bullshitty.

Meh, if it was the 50's again, then we'd just have live through 1974 again. 1974 really sucked.

Their wholesome up-to-date eating habits? Lighter foods? What's a heavy refreshment if Pepsi is light? Lighter fluid?
So, bizarre.
