Remember Got Milk's short lived Got Chocolate Milk PSAs? Just one tiny problem, the Got Chocolate Milk PSAs were weird as fuck. That's 2000s humor for ya ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-UDoci9yu0
This commercial from 1989 had the fucking Herculean task of making Tetris seem exciting. Surprisingly, they managed to pull it off. You know the whole stereotype about Russian circuses having performing bears? Well, this commercial feeds into that shit

MDA Puerto Rico which is the Puerto Rican branch of the Muscular Dystrophy Association came out with a series of PSAs where people move parking spots to illustrate how muscular dystrophy can come out of fucking nowhere. Pretty bold to move people's parking spots without their knowledge. If you had your parking spot moved as a prank, I'm sure "It's just a prank bro" doesn’t cut it

This is a classic PSA series about math and how minorities should get into math. Except, the guy next to Sinbad in this PSA isn’t a minority. Really, you couldn’t get one of the Wayans siblings to be in this PSA ya cheapskates?

Finally I get to talk about this PSA. For a PSA about acid rain, it's not half bad and it uses an actual billboard to illustrate the point. So that's two ads in one. It's the music choice that's a bit sus. Using a break-up song as an ad song is all kinds of fucking weird

Found a cracker of an ad. Weirdly Airwalk predicted the whole wanting to interact with a virtual woman thing all the way back in 1998 along with the whole neckbeard-esque wanting to live with your moms bullcrap. What's wrong with that?

In honor of the classic Jerry Lewis Labor Day telethons for muscular dystrophy, I decided to post one of MDA's classic PSAs from the 70s featuring the Knights In Satan's Service. I know that the band's name is not an acronym. Don’t @ me, it’s a joke. It's actually not bad, metal as fuck and doesn’t take away the fact that KISS did this for an MDA telethon.

A 70s PSA this time. It’s not too shabby but the art direction needs work. A religious PSA is a weird subject for a PSA. The 70s was a good time for PSAs but one of those time periods where fucking religion got their own PSA

Why did a liquor store in Minnesota think white people talking like those in the hip hop community was a good idea? Even by 2015 no one in the hip hop community white, black, brown or otherwise talks like a corporate caricature of a member of the hip hop community which is that whole thing with the Island Boys is fucked up. Your Latino, you should be representing the barrio, not talking like a Jamaican drug lord disguised as a white dude. Come to think of it, if you’re white and you grew up in the hood and talked like that then it’s perfectly ok but the white folks in these ads are "Suburban Private Golf Course" white
