an open letter to Mars, Incorporated

Dear Mars Incorporated,

RE: Your Agency Who is Creating These Snickers Ads.

Please keep on bringing this magic into the world.

This is 180 degrees from your past couple of godawful campaigns which forced us to look at brain collapsing words like "Hungerectomy," "Peanutopolis" and "Substantialiscious."

Granted, I make up horrible words all the time.

But, I don't slap them on the side of a bus and unleash them unto an unsuspecting public. You were not part of the answer back then, Mars. You were a part of the problem...to turn our nation state into a horde of Beavi.*

But with this new campaign...I forgive you and welcome you back with open arms.

While I rarely partake in a Snickers, I can promise to do you a proper and pick up a Milky Way Midnight.

Keep it coming.

*the plural of Beavis
