diesel disconnect campaignFiat joins forces with Diesel to launch the limited edition Fiat 500. The campaign encourages folks to “disconnect” from their online social lives and experience social media behaviors out there in the real world.

Like I always say, the only thing better than a DieHard battery ad is a DieHard battery ad with Gary Numan. Seriously, I say that all the time.

More from Leo Burnett, Allstate pushes their motorcycle insurance with some slick slow motion wrecks. The concept ain’t bad, but it’s serves as more proof that anything can be made better with ultra slo-mo. Don’t believe me? Would you want to watch a video of me taking a dump? No, right? Would you like to watch a video of me taking a dump in ultra slow motion? Don’t lie. The answer is yes.

Kia liked the hamsters from David & Goliath’s Soul launch commercial so much, they’re bringing them back. Truth be told, rap spoofs are one of most tired, idiotic storytelling mechanisms in existence. But somehow, with hamsters riding around in toasters and laundry machines, this works for me.

Sure, you could take the route of the driver and “follow no one”. But pass up the ability to change your appearance with cool sound effects? No sir. I’ll trade my pride for that any day.
