This ad isn't stupid, so much as gross.

Have you seen the relatively new ad where shit is simulated with some green paste. Probably toothpaste? They show someone with a big smear of green toothpaste on the back of their hand trying to wipe it off with toilet paper. A single wipe doesn't get it. So they switch to Charmin (I think?) wet wipes, and are able to get the simul-shit of their hand in one wipe. It's really disturbing to me. Simulates shit smear on hand too well. Far too vivid. It's far more disturbing than tampon and maxi-pad ads that use blue water instead of blood.
