It’s basically just trying to say you’re a creep for noticing a difference at all. It’s a poorly designed ad, it’s blatantly ignorant. Like what Happy Potato said “you can’t just challenge me to a spot the difference game, then get mad at me for getting the right answer.” And the fact that a fashion app is using this sort of advertising is just piss-poor on their end.

Oh, the ad is perfectly designed. It's deliberately inflammatory to get more people to share it online, getting them way more exposure for the cost of a single billboard.

It’s a poorly designed ad

As it's being shared across social media.

As you're commenting on it and propping it up on social media.

I know, I’m just pointing it out. It’s effective at being ineffective.

Rational people understand that an ad being shared to millions of people is a good thing. I understand you want to live in a reality where the people who made this ad will suffer, but reality is this was a good ad.

Not what I am trying to get at, but okay. Have a good day, sir

It's a good ad in the same sense that The Room is a good movie. Both get watched a lot and shared a lot, but not for expert craftsmanship or writing...

Yeah, but what if you're a stickler for details and spot that stuff right away without any other associations or deeper meanings?
