Strange advert in The Metro

Zinger549

There was an advert in the metro today for a Bed sale. nothing unusual about that.
At the top of the advert there was a letter from the manager

My beloved poodle princess Tia escaped from her luxury little wall to wall carpeted kennel and was taken advantage of by a cross bred Lurcher/Jack russell called Bruce, to top all that my wife went to complain to the owner of Bruce. He is a refuse collector by the name of Ernie and she has moved in with him. Everybody else is taking advantage of me so why don't you.

How strange probably some poor bloke on a self destructive rant gone a little too far?

Maybe a Peed off employee who was tasked with placing the ad

Maybe it was supposed to be a funny and catchy advertising ploy?

Probably just a funny ad. I saw a shop with a sale on and the sign said "The owner of this shop is getting divorced. Come get the stock before his wife does!" I doubt it was actually true but it's something different.

he deserves to be dumped for that alone.

it's "clever" marketing

It did say up to 75% of so I guess it was just a marketing thing.

Seems like a pretty effective advert to me

I saw an advert a few months back in our local Hemel Hempsted paper that was advertising a restaurant where kids ate for free with a paying adult - they spent so much time making the advert look good, that they forgot to put the name and location of the actual place! oops!
