A friend got me watching Guinness’ new tv commercial, its most expensive yet. It reminds me a lot of the Honda Cog tv from a few years back.
In case you’re too lazy to watch it (it is like a minute 30 seconds, after all), an entire village of people who don’t look like they have much money spend a whole lotta time on a beer shenanigan.
I’ve sat on this for a few days and it still feels a bit offensive to me. Perhaps I’m being a tad too sensitive, or maybe Guinness just sucks.

When I was more of a drinker, I loved Guiness. Very expensive stuff, but worth it. A real man's beer.
Yes, it's like a meal. And I'll bet nobody in this commercial could ever afford to buy one. Maybe they got a couple free on set....
Offensive? No I don't think so. Looks like they haven't had this much fun since the Aliens dropped in, and did the connect the boulders thing in the Atacama.
