Reading the word "testicles" is easier than looking at them.


The bosses are out of town today so my partner and I are going to make some fake ads for this great Mediterranean cafe on 5th St. called Triesta. The best gyros in town, folks. Seriously. The tuna hoagie is also a thing of beauty. Making fake ads is a fun way to break the monotony of working on client's ads for weeks on end. In fact, last week, amidst a maelstrom of activity, my partner and I made some fake ads for machine guns. They only took about 20 minutes, and it shows. But goddamnit, we laughed about them all day. Tagline: Fuck life.

Fake ads are sweet.

maybe have the gun wading in a pool of blood. with blood on the type, "overkill."

or perhaps have blood dripping off the type and onto the gun. that could be more provocative. the type "over" the killing gun. hence, "overkill"

i like the idea of fake ads. fun.

the gun (inverted) could take place of the K. then, canvas the layout in bullet holes like a redneck spraying a road sign with his 12 gauge.
