WSIB is scarier than the mob... As soon as I recognise one of their commericials, I'm scrambling for the remote, or running from the room, leaving a giant, Vicky-shaped hole in the wall.
Dear God! I was not sufficiently prepared for the actual horror of that advertisement! I love the brief cut to her artfully-scarred face. And I guess I can applaud their restraint in refraining from showing her aflame.
Also, I know that she won't be getting married this weekend, cause, too soon, right? But I think that the advertisement implies that she won't be getting married full-stop, nor will she be able to chef again? *slowly gets it* Oh, she is going to die?!
I hate these ads they're so horrible. I get the point the WSIB is trying to make but its too gory for TV IMO. There are at least 2 more of these but this one is definitely the worst.
I live in Canada, as soon as I saw
