I saw a full-page newspaper ad the other day. It was for an apartment complex, and the draw of the ad was that they had full laundry facilities on-site. The message was "we have laundry, and it's a good place to live." The catch-phrase used was "No more creepy laundry-room guy."
I was reading this in a laundrymat. I felt like the creepy laundry-room guy. I am not, however, creepy. Complete strangers will talk to me, almost anywhere I go. I don't make a point of flirting with girls when I'm doing laundry, but if I saw a hottie folding towels, I would probably say "Hi," if I was bored and wanted to talk.
What if she was the one reading the ad? What if she, having just learned of the "creepy-laundry room guy," was approached by a male shortly after, in a laundry room?
What makes you think that was unintentional?
a lingering hope that marketers might have some humanity left in them, after capitalism has taken over their minds.
