Fauxreel's latest intervention:
"the idea is based on two different trains of thought...
selling something to people that they don't need...
when i researched this, i discovered that one of the most over reaching markets in this sense was for products created for babies, actually products created for parents who think they need to keep up with the jones'...
the other thing i noticed through doing this research was that people, especially in canada, are having children later in life...
buying a plastic baby might help those who don't have one of their own yet to feel like they belong...
which is what advertising is all about...
selling you something you don't need so you'll feel like you belong...
so why not sell the whole baby to the folks not ready for one... completely ridiculous, perhaps slightly offensive, absolutely fun. "
