day 2, ring pop

There is nothing more irritating than non-humored filled advertisements to me. One type in particular is the advertisement that tell little kids that big kids love-you fill in the blank--and that they are the cool thing to have or wear. Most people have seen a ring pop ad on television and the people that are in the advertisements are 15-18 years old. Last time I checked, I haven't seen a guy with tattoos all down his arm (bottom arm on picture) with his hand decorated with colorful "bling bling" that he can eat at the same time. But we all know what the message is portraying and it's goal. It is trying to get kids to buy ring pops because it's the cool thing to do, and little kids love to imitate bigger kids. So the perfect choice of actors/actresses would be ones ten years older than the targeted audience. Another example would be the sketchers shoes with wheels. You don't choose 8 year old kids because kids don't want to be told by television to do what everyone else is doing, they have their peers to do that. It's all about getting ahead of the rest of the crowd to be the leader, the one with ring pops. One thing I don't understand is the arm at the very top doesn't have a ring pop, but--from what it looks like or I'm just blind--an engagement ring. So if someone could confirm or reject that, it would be great. So in the end, the author is Ring Pop makers, the speaker are the 18 year old arms, and the target is innocent children.
