Ezza, I don’t care if you didn’t win in Miami, that photo is the shit.
So what suit (or no suit) is that in the first pic??
Who’s Ezza?
Is the naughty nurse making a return? Apparently she too busy doing the Riviera bucks circuit last year…
Who was that loose lady in the pool anyway…?
Check out all the six packs!
(Of beer in the esky)
SAUSAGE FEST
anyone know when the party actually is?
can’t see dates.
Lets go hang with fat, old wankers and their rent-a-whores, sink piss and talk ourselves up till the world dies screaming from our jet fumes and moral ambivalence… wanna???
Yep, let’s fuck around on our wives, get an ear ring to cover for receding hair, say exactly the same thing we said last year and the year before that.
Sounds killer.
Fuck yeah I wanna! Beats the crap out of layin bricks.
I’m feeling rough, I’m feeling raw, I’m in the prime of my life.
Let’s make some music, make some money, find some models for wives.
I’ll move to Paris, shoot some heroin, and fuck with the stars.
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars.
This is our decision, to live fast and die young.
We’ve got the vision, now let’s have some fun.
Yeah, it’s overwhelming, but what else can we do.
Get jobs in offices, and wake up for the morning commute
7.50 & 10.11. I take it you are not invited! You couple of sad twats!
So that’s where I left my dental-floss!!!!!!!!!
D.
750 and 1011, if you have no interest in spending a week immersing yourself in the best thinking our business can generate, then you have NFI and should get out of the industry now.
you’ve obviously never been to cannes, so you probably think it’s just a week of sinking piss and trying to impress eurohotties with your cute aussie accent. Yeah there’s that. But if you’re halfway smart, you make sure you spend the week learning and being inspired and being made fucking jealous and coming back refocused.
Looks like some photos from the Cannes Facebook Group
Dear 8.20 and 11.40, thank you for identifying yourselves as the fat old wankers in question. Continued use of the word twat also identifies 8.20 as a stinking pom. Learn the lingo mate, or piss off home, we’re sick of you.
11.41 here.
I’m not fat and I’m not old. Can’t say for sure whether I’m a wanker or not, though. Probably am, just like you and everyone else here.
Fact is, there are three types of us:
1. Those who are lucky enough to be going Cannes, spending a week away from the day-to-day shit of a winter’s working week, sinking piss, meeting people, seeing great work and having a blast.
2. Those who aren’t going, and are honest enough to admit they’d love to be there.
3. Those like 7.50 and 10.11, who wish they were going, but aren’t, so they crack the sads and pretend that they think it’s only for fat old wankers anyway. Wankers.
What the f*** is so f****ed about getting a f*** in f****ing Cannes?
It’s good to go to Cannes, it helps predict what our ads will look like in 12 months time.
The guy that took that photo was 3 meters in the air after bouncing off the diving board, doing a pike three quarter twist and wearing nothing but a smile.
Creative stuff happens at Cannes.
See ya poolside!!!
And at the show of course.
Matt
2.40. Dear Boy. Looks like you have a fucking forest on your shoulder! Maybe you should ‘sink more piss’….
Is he wearing her undies on his head?
Cannes is everything you think it is – and more: Seeing the finalists on the walls, waiting to see who and what wins, meeting people with creative success on the brain, heck even the seminars can be brilliant – oh yes, and of course the beer.
You’re right, there is a lot of 1664 consumed, but I’d prefer to hear what people have been up to over a few beers (in the South of France) than across a desk.
I can happily say I work both smart and bloody hard so that once again, I can step off the plane at Nice and feel that dry breeze on my face.
Yep, it’s endlessly inspiring and you can’t help but have a great time. To say otherwise is bullshit.
That chick in the pool needs a good seeing to.
So women do play a part in creative departments.
Hey 11.23
MGMT is proud of you.
No fucking dinosaur on this blog would get it.
5.10.
So wrong. But so right.
LOLZ at you 7.11.
posting song lyrics to ‘express your own emotions’ is the sort of thing 12yo girls do.
but yeah, you’re right. 11.23 should keep it up.
Wow… 7.50 and 10.11 you turd burglars!
A. Most of the guys there bring their wives.
B. The hot chicks (as in the TV producers) don’t arrive until the friday night because they’re busy making some of the world’s best commercials. Generally the world over most women that are creatives aren’t whores… (Not really hot either. Sorry but it’s true)
C. It’s about Aussies hanging out with all their mates that are working in top agencies around the world (Whom I might add, they went to Award school with).
D. If you’re not arrogant enough to look at the cannes website you’d see there are a shitload of talks going on. The future of advertising. Web 3.0 etc. etc.
The good CD’s from Aussie agencies usually come back and give a talk to their agency peoples. Obviously you took a shit job and do shit work as you don’t want to spend the long long hours, working, reading, investing in tour career. You’d rather be out on the piss all night telling chicks you work in advertising telling them that you did ‘big ad’.
Now fuck me sideways, yep, there’s parties going on too. It’s advertising. Pricks like you guys make this industry so fucking painful. Fuck off become coal miners.
Fucking funny, well played Eza.
