Skittles Ads Are Really Strange

 

 

I don't know who does the marketing for Skittles candies, but they're god damned geniuses.  Their ads are so random and so strange.  They're like little pieces of marketing bliss.  None of them really make much sense, and most of them are even fairly absurd, but it's those qualities that make them so awesome.  Skittles, as a candy, is fairly plain.  They're little colored M&M looking things that taste like candied fruit flavors.  You would expect the marketing for them to be fairly normal and boring, like the M&M ads, but no.  Their ads stand out because of their strangeness.  I applaud them for making such daring and strange commercials. 

 

Go here to see a few of the ads I'm talking about.  They've got 4 official commercials and one fan made commercial to see, although they left out the bearded guy commercial, which is pretty awesome too.
