V-Raw is V Energy drink's project that helps talented, driven youth bust a sesh hardcore in trying to achieve a dream job in the creative industries. The project is honestly awesome beyond words.

Ads That Go For Cool - And Miss So So So So So Badly

July 30th 2007 14:30

Cool is a state of mind. It's effortless, instant, unrefined. We like cool things and we like to buy them. This is why companies put so much effort into trying to manufacture coolness. But when you put effort into manufacturing the effortless, it becomes really dodge.

Oh. She moves with the times hey? Meaning what? She buys all the latest clothes. Oh she's so empowered. I'm shocked with this archtypal wonder woman who's so up to the minute she's buying your clothes. Blah.

Ladies. Don't. Don't stack your damn bangles. Your arms will get sore. And in case you were worried that you'll be missing out on this great new 'Bangill-Stackin' trend; don't worry. There is no trend. They just think this will make you buy more bangles.

I don't have a problem with the company, or with donuts. I love donuts. But who had the bright idea of using a healthy girl running around outside to promote eating unhealthy good inside?

"Hay Guyz mebbe if we leik, tap into Gen Y's Nostalgic affinity 4 Mix Tapes we can give ourselves sum cool credibility LOLZLOLZLOLZ"

Oh you tosser. You're not paying the rent to buy Sunglasses? Why is that cool? Why are you cool? Damn it! I know guys like you... you have sex with my drunk female friends and wear five hundred dollar shirts and are scared of Muslims and Aboriginals. You're a materialistic boring void of pathetic self indulgence. Go stick your head in a bucket of water. Go get some life experience. Go work in Bangladeshi shipping yards and get some perspective on reality. Fuck you!

Ahh... always better after a bit of Rah, hey?

Musical Clothing

July 26th 2007 03:03

Humans are visual creatures. The pursuit of aesthetic pleasure is a determiner of how we shape our world. We paint. We build. And as perhaps of of the most powerful aesthetic influences on our lives, we dress to look pleasing.

However, our eyes are not our only interpraters. Our ears also elect to point out to us, some of the beasut of the world.

Imagine. This girl walks past. Awesome beach pants. She passes, leaving behind her nothing but the smell of sal water, and the tiny but mesmerising jingle of tiny bells...

Jingle, Jingle

Smiling Ipod

July 13th 2007 06:19

You should be able to find these squishy smiley faces at your local IGA or craft store. They come in a sheet of about 20 for fairly cheap.
