PSA my son had an idea for- Earth Frying: Opinions?

[Mother Of Four]

Personally I love it, but I'm a lil biased.
(EDIT) It's an intentional play on the "war on drugs" old commercial. If you've read me posting before, we had a sit down with one of his teachers earlier this year about a paper he wanted to write on Hemp.

1. EXCELLENT, K&R

2. I like it!

3. Very good, makes much more sense than that stupid drug one

I asked some teens about that drug one when it was out and all they could tell me was drugs make your brain into a fried egg.

This one makes sense and is very good.

4. He thought the drug one was silly-

And wanted to press a point that there are more important things than making a villain out of Marijuana.

He's a smart kid. :D

12. I love those old drug PSA's

Especially the Paul Reuben / Pee-Wee Herman one. "This... is CRACK""

Hell, I remember early drug prevention lessions in school, where they would never actually name, describe, or present the drugs... it was just a Mister Macky-style "Drugs are bad, mmmmkay?"

5. I love it! Have him send it to the we campaign

Gore helped launch the We Campaign. They do ads on TV all the time.

7. I love the idea but I have a "note"

I'd move "Any Questions?" down to the bottom and move the frying pan up a little to give it the same level as the Earth. That way the two circular objects are more comparable and there's a pause before reading the question.

13. Why does your son hate America?

:sarcasm: , in case you couldn't tell

Ordinarily I loathe people bragging about their kids but it appears you've raised a bright one.

Congrats!

15. Personally, I think it's effective.

Personally, I think it's effective; but then again, I also thought the original ad run was effective too or else I wouldn't remember it so well twenty plus years later. :P
