My car hydroplaned once.
I almost hit a gas tanker while on a mountain pass. I narrowly avoided it by slamming into the median, blowing a tire and then pulled over and tried to change it. In 33 degree rainy November weather.

Is advertising stupid or are we? Is it invasive and annoying, or brilliantly placed to ensure we can't stop talking about it?
Interruptive advertising (well, I guess that's redundant) will surely go down as something future scholars laugh at us about. "They used signs, cartoons and stupid videos to try to ...
