Dumb Ads

I've seen a number of the Microsoft "We see" print ads. On the whole I thought they were ok in a bland corporate "yay us" kind of way. But the latest one I ran across made me snort and think "What twits!".

It's not quite so obvious in this small version but keep an eye out for the two-page print ads. Most people don't strum a bass - or chord one either.

Normally this sort of goof doesn't bother me. I'm a programmer and there can be all sorts of outrageously bad computer stuff in TV programs and movies and it doesn't phase me.

Maybe it's the whole "We understand you." theme and then this.
