Nope. That’s not a reference to the fact that I haven’t written a post in two weeks. Although I do feel kinda invisible.
I refer to that famous quote because I believe it should be appropriated by traditional ad agencies, who after an 18-month long string of death due to social media obituaries, flew out of the grave on Tuesday when Wieden + Kennedy broke The Old Spice Man social media campaign
It’s Friday Morning Bacon time, when we celebrate all the smart | inspiring | cool | hip stuff that we saw on Twitter in the past week. We curate the best that we saw and place them briefly on a pedestal—the very pedestal that we permanently reserve for the greatest of all things, bacon.
So it was much to my chagrin that while enjoying a drive along the lake this week, I heard a new radio spot for Subway that—to quote Michael Corleone—insulted my intelligence. The spot in question claimed that “pepperoni is the new bacon.” Being of Sicilian descent (like the aforementioned Mr. Corleone) I can say that pepperoni certainly is delicious. But let’s not get crazy Subway. It is definitely not the new bacon.
With that, we serve you this week’s platter.
