deux poids et deux mesures

Mon astrologue m'a dit une fois, en analysant ma carte du ciel, que s'il y a quelque chose que m'écœure, c'est bien de l'injustice... Puis elle a frappé au but!
 

Voici un example d'une situation que me fait chi*r:
 

M est avec F. Cependant, ses amis l'incintent à tromper sa blonde avec C, car C est une (vieille) fille très tripante, alors que la belle F est pas mal timide et ne participe pas tellement des activités du gang de son chum.  
 

Un jour, la relation de M et F est finie à cause de leur problèmes conjugales. Au bout d'un moment, F trouve quelqu'un d'autre, puis M se fâche contre elle. 

Et encore pire: les mêmes camarades qui l'avaient appuyé à tromper sa copine dans le passé, la jugent maintenant. Après tout, "pauvre lui..."!
 

De l'hypocrisie, je ne supporte pas ça!

Au lieu de condamner son ex pour poursuivre sa vie, pour quoi Monsieur M (à la fin: célibataire) ne profite pas de ce moment où il est libre pour conclure ce qu'il a commencé pendant qu'il était encore en couple?

Si C était aussi parfaite, pour quoi il n'est pas avec maintenant? En plus, il a toujours eu l'aveu de ses copains! Tous comptes faits, où sont justement ces compagnons pour le stimuler à faire la bonne chose là là, en définitive?
 

M n'a pas été correct avec F avant, en ayant l'appui de ses proches pour la trahir. Au moment où F finalement essaye d'être heureuse avec une autre personne (peut-être un homme plus loyale, qui la valorise, enfin), la critique tombe sur elle.
 

F*CK YOU! Qui a un toit de verre ne tire pas de pierres chez son voisin...
 

Je hais les gens comme ceux-ci. Je me demande ce qu'ils ne pensent/parlent pas de moi dans mon dos!   
 

Il y a une leçon qu'on apprendre en veillissant: qui dit des choses méchantes à propos des autres, va le faire contre toi aussi.  

Des faux amis... Mangez de la m*rde!

pubic mkt

Maybe because we are famed on account of Brazilian wax, now and again the issue is back (actually is always the same there): women's shaving.

The flavor of the month is the actress Nanda Costa, who is on the current Brazilian Playboy's cover - and inside, posing in Cuba.

My comments about:

• The photos are awesome;
• She is very hotty, mainly because I've never seen before so many pictures with men next to the model – virile black ones, a propos...;
• Her depilation fits with the location and atmosphere – because YES, she shaved (otherwise she would have beavers for over the place: on the surrounding area – and IT IS NOT the case!);
• Their marketing was excellente. Besides, everybody is talking about it;
• Her answer for the press: “I wouldn't present a Hitler's moustache in Fidel's land” is great - well thought-out, very smart, indeed;
• It's clever chowcasing sporadically some different content;
• I would like to know if all men who are complaining, criticizing or making fun of her pubic hairstyle, are well shaved (or, AT LEAST, wearing attractive underpants);
• It seems that Brazilian men are nowadays more sissy than gays. As far as I know, men who likes women WON'T misfire or deny Nanda Costa in the nick of time... Will them??? (faggys...!!!)
• By the bye, for those who forget it: idependently of fashion trends, cunts are naturally hairy.

I love it: bush is always into the mouth of the people.

hairy bunnies

The most famous one, in Brazil, is Claudia Ohana. The actress (and singer) posed in 85 and have been being pub(l)ic debate since then. At the age of 45, she came back to the cover in 2008. Althoug the beautiful pictures and her bush in confidence with the 2000s style, the damage is done! No way: she has been unanimity on the matter.

Other one who showed her controversial shaving was Vera Fisher, but without such impact - maybe due to the known odd behavior of the actress, her age (she was 49 when she fronted the magazine cover), or even the zeitgeist in 2000.

To conclude, I add in Simony, the Brazilian kid's star in the 80s. Her essay in 94 was also that much hirsute.

___________________________________________________________ 

furry ass 

Maybe I'll be burn at the stake, but doesn't matter... I will touch raw nerves anyway:

Why men DO NOT grumble about Viviane Araújo's butt thick with hair?? It's incoherent, sorry...

(ok, her pussy is correct for our standarts, but not that bizarre "furry thing"...) 

It's all worng with men: bemoaning about a feminine twat while accepting with no restriction a manful bushy-tailed! (Stop the world I want to get off!!!)

à chacun son goût

En attendant...

Interrogé sur leur intentions de aller au Brésil en vacances, le québecois répondre:

- Mais oui, je cherche une belle litière.

(oui, exactement ce qui a été dit avec une incroyable supériorité sur le sud! - c'est-à-dire tout ce qui viens de l'Amérique Latine!)

Quel irrespect! 

J'aime vraiment le Québec, les gens d'ici, sa culture, puis je n'aurais jamais pensé en écouter un si fort insulte... Alors, excuse-moi, mais: pauvres chauvinistes ces (ostie de) losers égocentriques qui ne voient que leur souverainisme! S'il y a certains québecois qui croient même que leur "pays" est le meilleur endroit au monde, je voudrais qu'ils entendent (seulement un petit peu - au moins!) ce que tous les autres canadiens ont à dire par rapport à cette province francophone, et son peuple compris.

Une place pour chaque chose et chaque chose à sa place... Quelle ironie!

Vive le Canada et son acceptation des différences! 

J'ADORE ça: de la tolérance en plusieurs niveaux.

behavioral inconsistency

(not to say 'hypocrisy')

That is what everyone who intend to judge someone else must evaluate (in his life, in 'himself') before applying it and acting as a prude! Or better yet: a moralist holding his underpants saying "it is NOT what you are thinking". Thereabouts... not practicing what you preach, briefly.
 
His mother married his uncle (her brother-in-law);
Father of four, he left his all children with their mothers (or whoever) to live freely;
He passed his whole life playing games of chance, drinking and smoking. Lost much money; finally , when he won, overspent everything. Guess how...?!;
During about 20 years, he used to have two relations at the same time;
On all his relationships, he always cheated, sleeping with cousins, friends and all relatives besides other strangers who charm him. Not being very selective... or even 'enough', sometimes;
In his seventies, he blame women not to be capable to make him horny (hard... you know!), disregarding his age or health conditions;
There are some complaints about conjugal violence against him;
As a lawyer, he should recpect the rules of society, and government - specialy the traffic ones. Anyhow, he is not supposed to accuse anybody whitout having duly proofs.

Thus, tell me (PLEASE!!!) if this guy deserves our attention while beefing about other's behavior - mainly women's (due to jealousy of his girlfriends/affairs). By the way, accordind to his referecences, WHO IS HIM to bemoan about 'morality'? A model NOT TO BE FOLLOWED, of course... A bad example - only this. 

It seems: the worst the behavior, the largest the anger. Sorry, but 'disgusting' is being nosey like that... Sick! Unjust, unfair, WRONG.

Well, let he who is without sin cast the first stone...

cartas na mesa

O mundo seria tao melhor se as pessoas jogassem limpo umas com as outras...

Críticas construtivas, e a verdade - sempre! Sem trapaças.

faire contre mauvaise fortune bon coeur

On respect les choses de qui on aime, en défendant de les prendre pour rien n'arriver avec. Cependant, une "n'importe qui" vient chez nous et fouille "innocemment" dans ses affaires ... Câline! 

Intrusion: franchement, personne ne veut ça.

Il semble qu'il n'y ait même pas du Semancol ici... PANTOUTE! 

___________________________________________________________  

P.S. Je suis tannée de faire toujours la discipline, de jouer la fine.

the volleyball one

I insist to say: Brazil is not only the country of soccer anymore - and it has happened for a long time.

Today, when Brazilian girls volleyball team beat USA, I was one more time sure of that. We have won many games and championships.

Furthermore, our men's national volleyball team is even better! Tomorrow they will win the gold (or silver) playing against Russia.

I complain mainly about investments and incentive... After all, the very well-payed Brazil Olympic Men's Soccer Team 2012, as no one was expecting,  lost for Mexico.

art never fritters time away

 

The opposite of (lots of) certain politicians.

By the way, to do this painting, it really seems that Pawla Kuczyńskiego was inspired by watching Charest during his speechs (and also the PQL material)... After all, practically nothing has changed by now.

Economical, social and political critiques through the nice (but heavy!) masterworks of this artist from Poland. This man simply shocks in a smart way! Check him out here.

Concluding my criticism, we are just waiting for elections. Coming soon!

pour un monde meilleur

La paix et l'amour... 

C'est beau.
Ce qui ne va pas très bien c'est la mauvaise odeur.

(degueulasse!)

two sides of the same coin

I watched a PSTU advertising extremely touching. Amanda Gurgel, the young complainer teacher who became famous online, with a explosive speech about her salary of mere R$ 910 and the worker’s situation in Brazil supporting the carioca’s firemen action. They recently went to “the jail” at their own place of work only because were arguing for better salaries for their category.

While they were asking to earn somewhat better than the current R$ 950 per month, Palocci said they were trying to gain some advantages… Well, it’s easy to criticize other’s attitudes while ours is ok Palocci and the other politicians earn a “little” amount of R$ 26.000. Furthermore, he has been investigated due to changes of robbery of R$ 20 million of public money only in the year of 2010.

No, it’s not a joke… It’s the (sur)real situation in Brazil.

By the way, congratulation for PSTU owing to its courage to disturb my dinner once rearing much truth at once.

On the other hand (always it is like that…) I’m surprised with the structure of Graal company of road restaurants. For instance, they have at their places three or four types of food to offer - lunch, snack, breakfast, dinner and fast(junkie)food - there is inclusively some kind of Mc‘Donalds there! (selling good sandwichs). All these things served in huge, clean and clear places, - where is possible being online, watch TV, use the restrooms etc.

Nowadays those convenience places are such as the shoppings in downtowns (they are pratically 'road malls' - indeed!). Nevertheless, I’ve always wondering myself about road lifestyle, how (strange) living around the roads could be… always seeing everybody passing there, while travelling, but few people staying… This kind of thoughts - mine, I have had since I was a child. Of course I used to think about security matters too. It seems dangerous for me, but actually I don’t know how it really works…

I just verified that it is a very good market! Definitively, they succeed.

malandragem dá um tempo

I’m using a clear Portuguese due to the subject, which is typically known hereabout. By the way, I'm writing just because I avoid this kind of Brazilian behaviour.

I hate so much when people complain about money (while they have it!) just in order to gain an advantage over others. Although trying to convince me, nobody cuts no ice with me anymore! After all, it's not fair - maily when who needs some help is you...

Bezerra da Silva, a roguish Brazilian samba singer used to say in his lyrics that “Malandro é malandro, mané é mané” (or something in English as “a player is a player, and a jerk is a jerk”, or “once a rascal always a rascal; once a loser, always a loser”. Well, I’m not a dumb!

Seems that I finally learned to be more selfish - further: not to say everything for who simply doesn‘t deserve to know the truth, my opinion... Actually, anything about me.

cobbler, stick to thy last

Sorry, but I find queer see a fat sportiest. Simply there is no harmony! By the way, which phenomenon has happened to Ronaldo, making him round? I wonder if the “Baiacu” effect (due to lots of quadrate beer)...

Of course he has been an excellent football player (and nobody can doubt or discuss about that!) but it was in the past, though. Not even can he goes after the ball anymore! I realized he has been having, inclusively, some difficulty to walk. Lamentable.

How has he still been playing under these circumstances? Seems that would be easier if he could roll in stead of running. At the moment, he is supposed to be at least as athletic as Junior, Dunga, Romário, Leonardo or Felipão - who are all quite older than him and ended their careers a long time ago.

Frankly, I reckon it is unacceptable once he has all structure not to be like that (financial - not psychological, indeed). Furthermore, he used to be some kind of inspiration for many children. However, something which kids don't need are weight patterns nowadays. Actually, nobody does…

From now, perhaps a good marketing action won't be a Ronaldo’s doll, but a (type of) ball. Why not? - after all, every Jack to his trade. Retired of Brazilian Football Team, maybe he could be futurely our coach… Since he hasn’t to run with the ball, it’s ok!

fellow sufferer

Worse than a journalist without a pen, or a producer with no cell (that are both unsuitable situations), it is who doesn’t have anything to complain about. This is not to say, though, that nobody can get satisfaction with anything. Basically, it’s essential that people support their own ideas - worthily.

After all, there are many causes which people would be willing to support, even the most trivial ones. By the way our voice is the most powerful weapon we can use together in order to change all we want.

Frankly, I don’t understand how many could simply ignore that and don’t care about their needs. Under no circumstance could they shut themselves up. So, I’m mentioning a judicious Martin Luther King’s speech about this 'gap':

"Not only will we have to repent for the sins of bad people; but we also will have to repent for the appalling silence of good people".

So will I, lamenting for who keeps mum when they are supposed to blow the whistle.

that comes under another head

Although the book’s name said it is (or would be) “Por uma vida melhor”, in English: in favour of a better life, frankly, I doubt. After all, how using writing in a wrong way as something usual will lead people to this way of life, helping them to do it correctly? I suppose anything but that.

That is MY opinion. Many questions about the effectiveness of this method arise from the moment we are dealing with linguistics, cultural issues and education. It’s too complex.

However, I’m convinced that is better show good examples, mainly if it is for adults - who have more difficult to learn, due to the delay to do that. A little caution is essential in this case.

Be it this way or the other, the fact is that no one would dispute that the sentence “Nós pega os peixe” (in English, somewhat as “We takes the fish”) is completely erroneous, even if people have used it in their spoken language. It should serve by example about what is not to be done.
 
I hope that the 484.195 Brazilian students who will use this book can distinguee easily what is wrong in writing. Unfortunately, I hardly believe that they will be able to, once they are trying to learn the correct Portuguese when using that material.

At the moment, I don’t care about on who Education Ministery put the blame of had approved this kind of (inadmissible) mistake… On the other hand, I reckon that Heloísa Ramos, the author, was unsuccessful in her wrong words. From now, nothing will erase that of her carreer... 

Thus, I admit that, sometimes, I simply admire exact sciences - such as math or physics… when there is no discussion about either its processes or results, and there it stands. It works very well.

holy grazing TV

I’m going to write this post in Portuguese due to my indignation and frustration.

Eu venho lá do Brasil para chegar aqui na Europa e assistir TV na minha língua? Na boa, preferia estar treinando o meu inglês, vendo a programação internacional - afinal, são uns 300 canais! Mas não… Dia e noite é só sermão de pastor, programas de baixa qualidade (infelizmente, porque dá para ver que o investimento é grande) e produtos de uma imprensa marrom: SÓ DESGRAÇA!

Essa é a Record Internacional - presente fulltime na minha vida atual.

Reclamo MUITO enquanto assisto! Chego a ser chata, admito. Mas é impossível ser diferente diante o que vejo. Não estudei para ficar vendo merda. Não consigo. Fico triste em vivenciar uma substimação e degradação da capacidade intelectual do público espectador brasileiro que mora no exterior. E isso nada tem a ver com crenças religiosas.

Poderia ser melhor (vi que posso inclusive trabalhar para eles sem problemas algum! Nada do que eles fazem é estranho ou difícil a mim), mas não é. Estando for a, o quadro fica ainda pior porque o nível das propagandas e dos programas gringos, por exemplo, é infinitamente superior ao nosso. Tenho tentado subverter o “sistema” instaurado onde eu moro, para ver uma programação digna.

Mas o pior: eles gostam! - sem se questionar sobre o que assistem diariamente.

A mula ruge… os burros, não (forte, mas é verdade!).

mona

(and ‘Lisa’ - with Portuguese meaning).

A courageous and beautiful Iranian - my “dutch” muse.

I confess I was admired at first glance. I enjoyed to know her chiefly in reason of she was not used to wear the hijab. Anything else would be unsuccessfully as so to attract me.

Her long and black hair expressed and reflected as weel all her femininity. Seeing that, I wondered myself about which motives were involved, not hidden under their kerchief anymore.

not disguised

Since I’m a leftist, I’ve been contrary of any social imposition form. Any kind of oppressiveness upsets me. With ‘gender’ it won't be different... even in another culture.

My first question to her when I knew where she was born was not about women's situation there: Did you are there during the manifestations against Ahmadinejad last year? Yes, she was in Tehran.

Not satisfied, a second: It was exactly as they have shown on television? Worse - she said, telling me more about how cruel it was. Then, we became friends.

Probably, nobody there was curious (as me) to get to know more about that.

keep loving amy

I swear I would enjoy to go in one of her awaited concerts here in Brazil in the next days (or wherever! - Amy’s presentation is always worthwhile. However, here are some objections:

- I’ve not taken a VIP ticket or invitation;
- R$ 200 is too expensive. For me, in my present financial status, it is more that I can pay for;
- the place chosen by production  (HSBC Arena) is very far from home. It is necessary a transfer service... “Perrengue”(!);
- no one of my closer friends is going to (for me it is essential be in good company in this kind of event…)

Ok, I know that the life’s opportunities are over there and we should not waste it. Nevertheless, I’ll only another time…

Anyway… I’m (still) loving her - junkie or not (I’m not just paying for a risk - thus, I prefer her CDs, high fidelity recordings)!

somewhere

He is over there… walking, in metro, listening music, on the beach, watching concerts, drinking something, attending some course, driving, parking his car, stopped due to the traffic red light, taking for a walk his dog, telling a short story for his child, seating on the park, at club, shopping at the supermarket, choosing a DVD for tonight, cooking, working, studying, reading a book, taking a pícture, painting, riding a bike, learning another idiom; writing a poesy, an essay, a book, a thesis, a letter or lyrics; going to a stadium; playing an instrument, cards, tennis or soccer; surfing, jogging, planting flowers on the garden, travelling, giving a party; dinning, having lunch or a breakfast; supporting his team while is watching its game on television in a pub;  gazing at the sunset or sunrise; diving into the sea, sailing, flying, fishing, trekking, dancing, singing during the shower, connecting, being online, writing my blog, waiting for me… or mounting a horse - after all, what else could princes do?

Is it possible cross me on the street, looking at me (astounded), while I simply don’t see him? I must pay (more) attention... Also taking care with my appearance - even going to the bakery! It happens (of meeting someone special) when we least expect it! - maybe not, but PROBABLY, in these days your look is terrible, seems very tired and (all the worse:) you are dressed badly. [Oh, shit!]

brasil: um país de ratos

Final de ano, sentimento fraternal, de paz, esperança e um futuro melhor... quando as pessoas se desligam um pouco dos problemas em função das festas, viagens, férias, preocupadas com a família, presentes, etc. E é justamente esse período o mais perigoso no ano para ataque de verdadeiros ‘ratos’.

Uma onda de bandidagem tomou conta do país! Aproveitando a época propícia, em que o povo descansa, eles resolveram “trabalhar”.  Sem delongas, nossos governantes aumentaram absurdamente seus próprios salários – em níveis federal e estadual, entre 62% e 73% (enquanto discute-se se o salário mínimo aumentará R$ 30 ou R$ 50!).

Mais do que a eles, cuja atitude repudio, minha crítica vai ao povo brasileiro que se OMITE e NADA faz a respeito. Não soube de nenhuma passeata , boicote, ou qualquer manifestação pública que seja, EXCETO postagens em alguns blogs e a atitude louvável do amigo Tonho Crocco, que escreveu, gravou e divulgou no Youtube o vídeo “Gangue da Matriz”, em “homenagem” aos 36 deputados estaduais gaúchos que garantiram seu presente de natal com plus em seus bolsos todo final de mês fora as regalias próprias da "profissão".

Gostei também da postura da Rádio Ipanema, que comprou a briga e fez da música o hit do verão, usada numa vinheta da estação. Curti.
_______________________________________________________________________

Para quem não lembra... A Gangue da Matriz, conhecida nos anos 80 em Porto Alegre, foi responsável pela morte do jovem Alex Thomas na praia de Capão da Canoa no verão de 86. Praticantes de artes marciais, os membros do bando eram como os ‘Pit boys’ atuais (mas de antigamente, quando nem existia a associação dos cachorros Pit Bull ao estilo de seus donos briguentos). Filhinhos de papai, eram de influentes famílias gaúchas e alguns saíram impunes do crime – outros ratos, aliás! (como o ‘Chinês’, que depois veio a ser ator e protagonizou uma novela global das oito no papel de um cigano inexpressivo – quem sabe, sabe!)

com a boca no trambone

Crítica nacional:

Parlamentares se auto-promovem e aprovam salário igualitário de R$ 26,7 para eles, ministros de Estado, presidente e o vice-presidente da República. Um acordo foi feito para a tomada desta decisão que os deputados classificaram como em “regime de urgência” para que fosse votada ainda esse ano. 

Inúmeras famílias passam fome no país inteiro, milhões de pessoas sofrem com a falta de recursos e estrutura na saúde pública nos quatro cantos do Brasil, outras tantas estão desempregadas, sem condições de exercer dignamente sua civilidade, isso sem contar que o salário mínimo atual é de APENAS R$ 510(!)... mas nada disso é TÃO importante para os nossos governantes quanto seus próprios focinhos e bem-estar.

Vergonhoso – é o mínimo que posso manifestar a respeito. Uma porque tal ajuste é DESNECESSÁRIO, sendo que todos eles já ganham benefícios como vale-combustível, passagens aéreas gratuitas, não pagam aluguel, tampouco declaram imposto de renda!  - entre outras regalias. Ou seja, para eles seus salários (todos já acima de R$ 10 mil mensais) saem limpos para eles, sem gastos comuns a todos outros cidadãos, que com os impostos, pagam seus salários.

O que mais me indigna, no entanto, é a ignorância do nosso povo, que simplesmente dá de ombros para isso, MESMO (e principalmente) aqueles que ganham tão pouco tendo que sustentar tanta gente. Se fosse na Europa, o povo estaria na rua, manifestando-se contra tudo isso – vide a insatisfação dos franceses com a reforma da previdência deles que aumentou de 60 para 62 anos a idade mínima para aposentadoria, e também, mais recentemente, em Londres, onde universitários atearam fogo em ônibus protestando contra os aumentos nas mensalidades das universidades.

Aqui, infelizmente, só seria gerado rebuliços como esses se proibissem o futebol, a cerveja e o samba de final de semana. Nem o ‘pão’ adianta cortar que ninguém reclama (a começar pelos preços abusivos dos alimentos nesse último ano). O que o povo quer mesmo é ‘circo’! Por que será? PALHAÇADA.

a mula ruge...

Logo hoje, quando faz exatos quatro anos de nossa conquista no Mundial Interclubes de 2006 no Japão, registro outra indignação: a performance colorada na semifinal deste ano. Perdemos e deu zebra – africanos na final contra os italianos da Internazionale de Milão. Como aconteceu na Copa, torço por quem nos eliminou, e que, mais uma vez, nunca venceu a competição. Ao meu ver, assim como a Holanda (que lamentavelmente não ganhou mais uma vez), o Mazembe, do Congo, merece tal façanha por seu desempenho até agora.

Quanto a nós, teremos que pastar mais um pouquinho até conquistarmos outro título, afinal, não jogamos NADA nessa última partida. Faltou energia, vibração àquela equipe insossa, apática, sem moral. E o Celso Roth que baixe a crista e admita o fracasso do time sob seu comando (pelo menos nessa eliminação, decisiva).

Ficaria inconsolada, querendo ‘matar ou morrer’, se tivesse ido até lá, pagado uma fortuna, para ver o Inter dar vexame, como fez. Mesmo de ganharmos o próximo jogo e nos classificarmos como terceiro colocado no campeonato, voltaremos de Abu Dhabi ainda colorados, mas vermelhos de vergonha.

advertising

Não é o fato de o supermercado Guanabara fazer 12 aniversários por ano (a cada mês, divulgando uma promoção bombástica e sorteando ingressos para um show diferente), do extremo mau-gosto e da pouca qualidade dos anúncios de guaranás cariocas veiculados na Band, do volume das chamadas das Casas Bahia, Casa & Vídeo e Ricardo Eletro ser extremamente alto e o seu apelo violento - com estrondos, batidas e pancadões de áudio dando a entender que os preços caíram... O que mais me irrita nas propagandas hoje em dia é a esteriotipada e infeliz presença da imprensa nelas.

Como? Naqueles comerciais em que pessoas invadem em meio a flashes e empurrões as vítimas - INACREDITAVELMENTE, quem seriam os consumidores em potencial. Alguns exemplos: o do Colgate White-alguma-coisa, em que uma moça está num provador de roupas e é surpreendida por jornalistas e fotógrafos que invadem-no quando ela olha uma sujeirinha em seu dente. De maneira abusiva, eles a questionam sobre seus problemas dentários, induzindo-a a usar o líquido para enxágue bucal. Ridículo.

Outro: do Harpic Power Plus (ou algo parecido). Uma equipe de TV bate à porta de uma dona de casa para saber como ela limpa seu banheiro. A coitada mostra que usa água sanitária, e desinfeta o vaso, enquanto a repórter a critica dizendo que o produto que tem em mãos é melhor, cinco vezes mais eficaz contra os germes e bactérias. Péssimo. A pessoa abre sua casa, sua intimidade, é exposta em situações bizarras e ainda é criticada em suas escolhas, seus hábitos.

Na boa, quem que, sendo atacado assim, usaria o produto de uma marca cujo approach é esse? Quem cria isso? Mais: quem, da própria empresa, APROVA tamanha barbaridade? Fico, aqui, queimando a mufa pensando como deixam passar essas campanhas... afinal, o marketing é negativo. Parace até sabotagem! Sinceramente, fico com raiva deles, repulsando seus produtos, serviços - o que for! Mas tem outra coisa que me incomoda... a questão do elenco. São todos fake, ninguém ali é real.

Já vi atores em mais de um anúncio ao mesmo tempo, atuando em perfis diferentes. Num, ela é mãe, quer proteger a família contra os mosquitos; noutro, é solteira, supercontemporânea, bem-sucedida e almeja adquirir um carrão (com um motorista lindo, claro, para dirigi-lo!). Pior que isso só conhecendo a figura, e saber que é tudo MENTIRA - ela não é uma executiva, namora um amigo seu, eles não tem filhos, abominam repelentes e não almejam banheirões estilo "de titio".

A pergunta que não quer calar: por que não tentam fazer com gente de verdade, que os consome de fato, está insatisfeito com o concorrente, quer melhores resultados e, principalmente: cujo depoimento é SINCERO. Seria melhor. Apesar da dificuldade de achar alguém bacana para vender Corega, por exemplo, se conseguissem um personagem, seria o ouro! Aí, cola, colega publicitário (literalmente - até a dentadura alheia!).
