---As I was driving home yesterday after a daily mass I was flipping through the stations and landed on a popular one in my area that I listen to sometimes. They were on commercial break, but what the commercial was about really caught my attention.
---I am NOT trying to datefag, this is EXACTLY what I heard: The ad was about Samsung announcing a new phone. This new Samsung product, they said, was scheduled to be released or announced on August 11th. That date already made me listen more closely because of other things happening on that exact day. "What's so important about a new phone being released?" In my opinion, nothing really, but the rest of the ad's phrasing seemed really cryptic and, quite frankly, it almost shocked me.
---They said, "The world will look a lot different on August 11th. We may never recognize it again!" What the heck kind of pitch is that for a phone? There were some other weird things they said but I can't remember them all. They were all within the same phrasing though.
---What do you think? Cryptic message or is it just a weird sales pitch for yet another new phone?
Global talk about the world changing and things ramping up in August eventually seeps into the subconscious of a few marketing execs.
