I caught this one playing during the airing of The Bachelor (hey - I don't watch the show, it was just on in the background while I was working on my computer).
You'll notice that this ad features subliminal background music; a song with some pretty powerful yet barely audible lyrics:
"I feel so lonesome and I don't know why... You pushed me away without a goodbye... So - why don't you like me? Oh-whoa"
Here's a link to the ad: Wrigley's Extra Television Commercial
We all love a catch up with friends, but not when the coffee hangs around afterwards. Chew Extra for that just-brushed clean feeling.
Then there are pictures of animated cartoon coffee cups being scared off by Extra.
Now, seeing as the ad is for chewing gum, I think we can safely draw the conclusion that it's trying to insinuate that people (in particular, your beloved friends) are pushing you away because your breath stinks and you need to fix it! Fix it right now or people won't ever like you! Because nobody could ever possibly like you for you.
You have to be perfect in every way. Even with friends.
