Remember the Budweiser Wassup ad? The one that very quickly went from amusingly catchy, to iconic to eye-gougingly annoying in a record time? Well, it’s 8 years since the boys sat around screaming WASSSSSSUPPPPPPPPP?!?!? at each other and quite a bit has changed in the USA.This is a nice bit of advertising by, I presume, supporters of Barack Obama. And if this type of things turns out not to work, and it’s another 8 years before the boys can see real change, they might not have to mock up the suicide scene.
