Skittles' Blank the Rainbow Ad Campaign are Ridiculously FunnySometimes it is fun to take a quick look back at great ad campaigns from days gone by. The Skittles "Blank the Rainbow" ad campaign, is often viewed as one of the oddest and most delectable confections in advertising. Today we see how, in the mid-2000s, a product truth mixed with a cultural understanding of millennial adolescents led to a succession of popular and absurdist advertisements from TBWAChiatDay NY. We also see how, a decade later, DDB resurrected that spirit in two subversive Super Bowl pranks.Created by Ashley Marshall and Craig Allen in 2006, the Skittles ads are entitled, "Nest", "Rainbow Sitting", "Eric", "Sheepboys", "Blender Hands", "Beard", "Trade", "Leak", "Touch", "Stable", and "Piñata Man".#Skittles #Advertisement #Commercial #Humor

He made Frasier look at various video games, from Among Us to Stardew Valley.The Twitter account which McGill dedicated to posting these funny pictures of Frasier is only a few days old, but it already has over 19,000 followers. He thinks that this might be the next to the “Can You Pet The Dog?” phenomenon in the platform.Frasier now has many things to look at when he’s stressed.(All Images Credit: Bobby McGill via the Frasier_looking Twitter account)#Humor #VideoGames #Funny #Meme
