I don’t mean like scams or anything like that. I mean what’s the ad that has done the worst job as an advertisement? Instead of making you want to buy the product you wanted to avoid it.

The law on drug ads is that if they tell you what the drug does, they also have to tell you all the side effects.
But if they don’t tell you what the drug does, they aren’t required to say the side effects.
So they used to make two versions of the ad. One that was all about making people feel good about a drug by showing smiling happy people living a good life with lots of wholesome moments then “ask your doctor if zexophlam is right for you.” Then they’d have another ad that tells you what zexophlam does and send a few minutes listing the side effects. But lately I haven’t seen the second type that lists the side effects. It;s just the first type that doesn’t tell you what the drug does.
Last one I saw kind of made a joke about it where someone is about to tell you what the drug is and they keep getting interrupted. Haha, how clever you are in avoiding telling me that a pill can give people diarrhea or whatever.
Reminds me of the smiling bob commercials
