We Live They Live

I have come here to eat Snickers and kick ass. And I'm all out of Snickers, as you can see.




It shouldn't be news to anyone that advertising has always been firmly ensconced in and, when possible, sliding even closer to the world of They Live's blatant marketing mockery. Naturally, this fact was the first that sprang to mind when I spotted the back of the new Snickers wrapper (followed by uproarious laughter).


Seriously, it should just say OBEY, or in this instance, CONSUME would be more appropriate.

And we don't even need the special sunglasses anymore!
