HEY DONT LOOK AT MEME

Well, I've been looking into this project deeper and deeper which has resulted with 2 outcomes:

1. Whatever the final piece/outcome of this project will be, it'll involve mainly the use of memes in the advertising world. For instance, ads that use meme cameos, virals, unintentional advertisement, 'banned' ads and how they can help products and businesses excel in sales and progress. I'll also be dabbling in creating memes and see if the responses are useful toward my research.
2. I now suffer from vertigo!
   

That's a lie... and a joke. Not a good one I might add but sod it, I can blag it as 'anti-humor'. So, as was previously stated, I shall be looking at the correlation between memes and advertising. So far so good. I have here a bunch of ads that are either influence by or in their own way, memes.

Gatorade - It's very subtly hidden within plain site, look at the bottle when the ballgirl sits down.

LOLcats- Seen here is a restaurant using the meme genre, LOLcats, to promote their deals.

Toyota - Bugger! This amusing ad is using the generic Aussie curse 'bugger' as a sort of meme to sell their vehicles. Basically if the Internet community loved this ad they would say 'bugger' more often and unknowingly give Toyota plenty of attention by spreading the ad to their friends etc. Chances are a fair few may have subconsciously bought a Toyota car or truck because of this.

Volkswagen - Same goes for this ad.

Wonder Boner - An ad that's so awful it's become famous. Anti-humour has made it popular and a meme in itself. Although I cant think of anyone who has bought this ludicrous device but I guess well over half a million people know of it now thanks to the Internet.

There's more but I don't want to fill this blog up with lists of links all the time. Get on YouTube and look for yourself.

More research coming up!
