Bill Gates, Jerry Seinfeld and their churros
Posted by Brier Dudley
I can't figure out where Microsoft's going with its new ad with Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld, which Ben Romano posted on his blog.
It's one of those desperately seeking-quirky ads that begs for interpretation.
There's Jerry offering Bill a bite of his churro, then talking about the size of Bill's shoes. There's a knowing look, and a brief shower scene. A little bit later they're both walking around holding churros.
Yikes.
Behold, a still from the $300 million comeback to the "I'm a PC, I'm a Mac" guys. Any caption ideas?
