Tell Me You Didn’t Just Say That: 8 Pinoy Brand Slogans That Require a Spit-Take
Jan 28, 2016 • Kel Fabie
4. Whisper: Have a happy period!
Who does this? Who wishes “have a happy period” on someone else without a hint of irony? Sometimes, I wonder if Kim Chiu’s agent hates her, considering the horrible commercials and endorsements she’s had over the years.
Possible creative brief received from client: “Guys, we want to make that time of the month fun. How do we do it?”
3. Avida: Dito na tayo forever.
We want the people to know that Avida is where you’ll always stay. Wait. Didn’t Eternal Gardens try this exact same thing? What are they trying to imply about living people staying someplace forever? This sounds like an ominous premise for a slasher flick.
Dito na tayo. FOREVER.
Possible creative brief received from client: “O. Alam ko may restraining order ka dun sa stalker mo, pero may deadline ka pa. Can you finish this pitch by tonight? Thanks!”
2. Napoleon Brandy: Nakatikim ka na ba ng 15 anos?

This slogan defies any sort of explanation. Do we really need to promote statutory rape just to sell frigging brandy?
Possible creative brief received from client: “Hik. Alak pa, pare. Ano, may slogan ka na bang naisip?”
1. Clover Chips: Lover ng Clover, may Clover finger!
What were they thinking?! Damned if I know. Why would anyone want to get Clover fingered? Isn’t that shit unsanitary?!?

No. Please don’t explain this one to me.
Possible creative brief received from client: “Hik, pare. Ayos yung slogan mo para sa Napoleon Brandy. Gawa ka naman para sa Clover Chips!
HONORABLE MENTION: We All Need The D!
Contrary to what the article is insinuating, I’m almost sure the ones who made this campaign knew exactly what they’re doing.
Unfortunately, this is clearly not a Filipino campaign, so we just have to let it be.
