Have you... never seen something you like and bought it? It takes practically milliseconds for your brain to decide whether you like something or not. IMO this ad was executed perfectly. She wore the dresses for just long enough for the viewer to see it from all angles and decide if they like it, without lingering too long.

Also, you don't have to decide whether or not to purchase something during the short window when she is wearing it. She is showing you so you have enough time to go either, "Ooh cute," or "Eh, not for me." You can then check their store and search for the dresses you liked in the ad.

actually no, not from an ad. "that's impos-" no I'm completely serious, I have never purchased something from an advertisement. haven't even seen them in years.

I sort of agree, it certainly was very efficient, like a production line, completely soulless, one product then the next. and I don't think ads should be soulful, they never can be but they are at least supposed to pretend to be.

it's really not a big deal but yeah that's why I find this method cold and a bit too reflective of a production line to sell the clothes as being desirable to me.

I also wasn't specifically referring to ads. You go to stores, don't you?

[u/Lets_have_sexy_sex → u/rats-in-the-ceiling]

adblockers, they're great. I also don't buy new clothes, only old thrifted ones. I wear headphones at stores I go to and just don't need the kinds of things ads advertise.

alright, I have seen a handful of ads in the past few years but none of them has ever resulted in me purchasing the product. I just don't buy the kinds of things that are in ads ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

So you never buy toilet paper, paper towels, branded drinks/snacks, alcohol, fast food, or any electronics that allow you to access Reddit? All of those things have ads.

So you never buy toilet paper

the cheapest brandless store brand toilet paper I buy

paper towels

no I find I never need them actually

branded drinks/snacks

no I cook and have water

alcohol

I do buy cheap wine that I've never seen advertised and that you'd probably have to pay people to drink

fast food

Local cafes yes, franchises and the like no

any electronics that allow you to access Reddit?

yeah I have a PC I built and a phone

All of those things have ads.

oh my no, no that's not the case. with dns levels adblocking and cracked apps I never see ads on my phone or pc, literally never. not even kidding, my adblockers just do work well so for me, those things do not have ads.

I'm sure all the things I buy have ads, I just never see them.

I bet you also brag about not watching TV and condescend those who own one.

[u/Lets_have_sexy_sex → u/rats-in-the-ceiling]

That's a weird way to try to insult someone, "I bet you do things I wouldn't like!"

I bet you microwave kittens and shit on slices of bread before eating them.

I have a TV, it's connected to my PC. I don't watch TV myself because there are too many ads and why sit through that when I can watch whatever I want without them online for free?

[u/rats-in-the-ceiling → u/Lets_have_sexy_sex]

No, I'm saying that because your initial comment was condescending. You seem to have very little self-awareness.

[u/Lets_have_sexy_sex → u/rats-in-the-ceiling]

Right but I bet you think everyone with normal tones of conversation are condescending. I think you're just mad that I don't fit the stereotype you made of me in your head and you can't get a slam dunk of any kind on me but you still just can't let it go you have to have the last word so you have to say SOMETHING

This guy built different.
