A marketing team’s job seems like it must get harder and harder as the years go by. Most people are being constantly bombarded with ads, posters, banners, videos, and slogans, to such a degree that “ad blindness” is becoming a measurable phenomenon. So when an ad actually makes you stop and look, it’s a sign that someone knew what they were doing. 

The “Brilliant Advertisements” Instagram page shares marketing campaigns that stand head-and-shoulders above the rest. So guard your wallet, get comfortable as you scroll through, and be sure to upvote your favorites.

    Many, many cyclists are killed each year by distracted drivers, and it has nothing to do with them wearing lycra or not, despite what the comments in this thread suggest. Please, please drive responsibly, don’t drink and drive, and don’t text and drive.
