Getting out of your Shell

I don't really have much to say today, but I'd like to share some fail pictures from Shell's "Let's Go!" ad campaign. If you are not familiar with it, the company essentially created a meme generator and told the general internet public to make ads for Shell's billboards using provided images and words of the people's own choosing. For a while there was voting, and the winning ad's creator got a prize pack. That, however, is not the important part. The important part is that the general internet public made it clear that people don't like oil companies. Some of the images from the campaign make that very obvious.

Here are some of the more thought provoking environmental images.



These pictures are still have an environmentalism flavor, but they come at it from a more comical approach.

 

Some of the funniest images were the ones that made pop-culture references.



This is probably my all-time favorite.



Well, what did you think of Shell's marketing tactics? I'd say they made a fool out of themselves in a very public way. The general internet public is bringing them down. Which one was your favorite? Did you create your own make-fun-of-Shell meme that you'd like to share a link to? Leave a comment!
