heehee. Kung dito yan baka ipa convert ng di-propeller para makatipid sa gas. hehehe.Now why would a guy who actually has hundreds of thousands in the bank be stupid enough to be fooled by that ad? Yun siguro logic nung courts.

the court will not allow naman this siguro even if the man has a case.

it's like allowing a man to own a bazooka or a grenade or a tank. ika nga matters of national security.

now if the harrier jet is stripped off with military weapons and converted to a private plane. baka puwede, pero d'ba bawal ata ang VTOL for private use.

But the point is that Pepsi should not have advertised it in the first place, otherwise that's false advertising.

Technically speaking of course...

People should just use their common sense. It was intended as a humor.

ah, the (in)famous US legal system where you can sue anyone and everyone for nothing at work again.

hohum.

The man doesn't have a case. He was stupid enough not to know that the advertisement's finale was designed to put a humorous angle. as with many other commercials, here or abroad. Nobody needs to get fired.

meron talagang ganyan dito ang full time job nila is make sure they see something thru ads or what na pwedeng maging basis ng lawsuit.kagaya nung old lady na bumili ng mainit na kape ng mcdo,she filed a law suit claiming that the restaurant did not warn her that the coffee was hot, OT na ang post ko pero ang point ko talagang ganyan ang diskarte nila magkapera lang,it works sometimes.
