I don't know if you've seen the new ads for Deisel clothes. They beckon you from billboards, wall ads and bus shelters to "Be Stupid." Seems that the stupid are their target customer. I wonder how well that's working. If it backfires in this economic climate, they should be going out of business any time now...

Is this fallout from Teabaggers? Or maybe a talent search for GOP candidate material? Dunno, but it seems counter-productive to me.

Are You Stupid Enough for them?? (http://www.diesel.com/be-stupid/):roll:

Sorry. That's a butt? I thought it was someone's arm and shoulder... I'll add a NSFW just in case.

It seems appropriate, what with the rise in the TP and all.

They are stupid. I run NoScript on Firefox and I have to manually accept all Flash. A visit to their web site gets me a helpful redirect to their non-Flash interstitial page.

"This is were to put the non flash version."

Nice job, Mr. Web Developer.

It was a butt, no doubt about it. And a nice one, I might add.

I would say it won't work very well. Problem is the truly stupid are usually too stupid to realize that they are.

Hello.

Diesel apparel started by selling to the truck stops.
You do not need to be very smart to drive a truck, or run construction equipment.
But that was not the focus when the Italians got to it.
However somehow,,,it fits.
