I went on chatgpt and said "Write an advertisement that plays on the fears of gen z then suggests they eat a snickers". It returned almost the same as above.

I am not 35. I'm 34.
Give it some time…
No.
Good old mars wrigley. Always giving lip service to helping the environment.
That's so cynical that I would almost kinda respect it if I didn't hate marketing on principle.
Well you can just buy that check mark, and I have trouble believing the advertising people at Snickers are bold enough to actually post this, so it's probably satire
You can also just Photoshop or edit the page source to make it say whatever you want
That's cheating, and someone could catch you.
Not me of course; that would require actually checking Xitter
Covid commercials in a nutshell
Honestly, I always need a Snickers. God damn.
Boy you guys talk so much about student debt that I'm very thankful to not have it
Thank goodness my "third world country" offers free tuition for uni. 🤩
Lol and you probably don’t even have a nazi clown running for president?

I worked full time through college. So much that it often interfered with the time that I needed to be spending on study. I still owe $40k.
My ex husband who’s billionaire family paid his tuition while I paid our bills owes nothing of course.
I worked part time through college. Summers I had two part time jobs, and a couple summers three that worked with my schedule. Started school with about 10k in savings and finished about 12k in debt.
Edit: I'm also super frugal. Found cheap food, cheap/free furnishings/clothes, cheap housing, pirated textbooks, and rode a bicycle and took the bus to get around.
Wish I could have afforded the time for some unpayed opportunities. Really struggling to find a decent job at the moment. (Studied math at a top university with fairly significant cs experience and decent gpa).
Wouldn't not recommend college, but man not feeling too good about it at the moment in terms of job opportunities (certainly wouldn't trade the experience and what I've learned for anything though)
Hey, your ex husband pulled himself up by his bootstraps! That's no way to treat the world's most elite!
Mine is debt owed to family
Continue to be thankful. I made some boneheaded choices in college which resulted in my throwing away a full ride, and I left school with like 80k in debt. Thankfully, I am much more fiscally responsible than I was academically responsible, and I managed to pay that off over the course of like 7 years (aided in no small part by the forbearance periods Biden forced through during COVID). Which is good, because more boneheaded choices were made which resulted in a significant change to my financial situation. If I were still making payments at this juncture, I would be in a position where I'd be moving back into mom's basement just to make ends meet.
Not that there is anything inherently shameful in that (it's fucking hard out here, and if that's a resource that you have available, it should not be turned away simply because of pride), but it does cause me to wake every morning pleased I didn't listen to any "financial gurus" out there who talk about shit like "good debt".
Good debt is an advanced move. Most people can't handle debt in any form.
No joke. I just went to a in state university, of which I had a few very good ones to choose from, and the state paid my tuition and I was able to pay rent working part time.
I often forget a lot of people around me are sitting on like $40k of debt because their state didn't do lottery scholarships or they just wanted to go out of state, sometimes just to get "The College Experience".

I'm 42 and my uni debt was about 15k GBP, down to a couple of grand now as I've just been paying interest until the last 5 years when I landed a good job and started clearing it. Out of interest, what was the amount you owed in your country when you finished, and what do you owe now at your current age?
USA
Owed $52,000 upon graduating with a bachelor's degree.
It's been ~~16~~ 12 years and I still owe $40,000.
I regret going to college every day of my life.
Now you'll have diabetes, if nothing else.
"Ha, ha! Look at that guy! He ate a candy bar, now he's gonna die the fat death."
Go boof some kale, or something.
Go eat a tub of butter, or something.
Was this an actual real post or satire?
I genuinely have no clue.
I don't think the marketing people for a billion dollar corporation would be that bold.
Didn't the Wendy's Twitter account upend all that years ago? There were some bold tweets for a while.
I think it's just an advertisement for Snickers. Gross.
The sign of a successful ad campaign is when the campaign itself gets satirized to continue to build on brand awareness.
But that only works if the satirization is still somehow stylistically distinct to be recognizable as a satirization of your brand.
You could put Wendy's, Walmart, Northrup Grumman, Tyson, Bank of America, whatever, into this, and just change the last line a little bit, and I still would not be able to determine if its satire or not.
Twofold reasons:
1 Corporate Advertisement in general is almost completely stylistically played out. Almost everyone has tried almost every approach. It's all just blended together, at least for me, into 'insert nearly any kind of rhetoric or style or music or imagery here' followed by: So buy the thing.
Sure, there are still some general trends for certain marketed product types ... but ...
2 Is anything on Twitter/X genuine? First we had a whole bunch of brand accounts acting like increasingly twitter brained idiots, then we had Musk's disastrous takeover and blue check fiasco with people impersonating corpo accounts running wild, now the bots are even more widespread AND the general corpo trend seems to be 'yes actually just have AI generate/do everything', why wouldn't text only posts currently be able to be handed over to an edgy ChatGPT model?
Like... this image, the account has some kind of silver tick or badge or something.
Is that from older Twitter era meaning its verified?
Was the account hacked?
Was this image photoshopped?
....
Can you even tell the difference between a serious idiot, an unserious troll, or a bot mimicking one of those, without an investigation?
You could put Wendy's, Walmart, Northrup Grumman, Tyson, Bank of America, whatever, into this, and just change the last line a little bit, and I still would not be able to determine if its satire or not.
I read this as an oblique reference to the "you're not you when you're hungry" campaign. It's a bit of a reach, but it works.
Corporate Advertisement in general is almost completely stylistically played out
It's like any other thing with fashion or styles. Trends come and go, different eras have distinct markers, later eras may intentionally evoke references or tributes to earlier eras, or other contemporary trends in other fields.

Welcome to the 2024. This year's presidential election will have exclusive live coverage on election night, from your official election coverage team....The Onion. No word on if they'll still deal in satire on the night, but it is confirmed that it will be absurd.
I would absolutely love for this to happen
Because when you're down in life, nothing quite helps like getting fat, diabetes and cavities.
Treat yourself to even more problems!
Tbf, you don't get diabetes from eating sugar. But the fat and cavities will do. *eats his feelings*
Nihilist Arby's all over again.
Maybe...
Lace it with LSD and it'll fix my outlook on life for about six months until reality wears me down again.
A full 6 months of good outlook from some acid??? Geez you getting good returns!
I used to do this and it helped my mental state a lot. LSD refresh every 6-12 months.
But I haven't had a source for LSD in 2 years now 😭
Hmmmmm. I should try drugs.
Try a lot of some drugs, a little of others, and none of bath salts.
Drugs.
Start before you stop
I stumbled on this video like a decade ago, no idea how it has such low views. It's a gem.
Drugs are pretty great.
DARE to try interesting drugs
Older and even more broken than all that.
