Does this ad gross anyone else out? Poor work, US Health Department, you need a cheezburger

double-chinThis horrible ad distracted me from my latest internet crush, Jack Gray of Anderson Cooper 360. He’s writer/producer/very funny/has dog and he loves Twitter (@jackgraycnn). And he appears to be cute.

But this ad! I thought it was an anti smoking ad, and that tube was a breathing device. But no! It’s gushing air from his face. So gross. What’s worse?

The website. This is all the US Health Department could come up with to fight obesity? Lame iStock photos, bullet points, and a section on Portion Control In Front of the TV? That’s it?

GUYS. This cheeseburger is not getting people’s attention.

how big is your big mac?

But fret not, fat Americans. I have a solution. A campaign you will pay attention to. A campaign you will check in on daily and be reminded that you are a tubster. US Health Department, meet LOLCATS.

cheezburger

Ready for it?

Here’s your new ad, Health Department:
