The Metro Everyday Nonsense Campaign Explains Strange Situations

— June 12, 2013 — Marketing
You can learn a lot from reading the paper, and these Metro Everyday Nonsense ads illustrate this idea perfectly with a bit of humor.

Consisting of two print ads conceived by the Mood agency in Sao Paulo, Brazil, the campaign features a man outfitted in a ballerina costume while waiting for the bus and a man riding his motorcycle despite his body being stuck inside of a car door. The ads are bizarre and comical but make a lot of sense in this day and age where just about anything can happen. The ads come with the reassuring copy "Someone needs to explain the everyday nonsense."

The Metro Everyday Nonsense campaign will give you a sense of peace in knowing that you're covered no matter what the world may throw your way.
