This ad is making the rounds lately:



A question every parent dreads. What will you say then? "You're not old enough to know about Poland"?

It's an official campaign to promote Eastern Poland as an investment region but the concept is so ridiculous that it just asks to be photoshopped. The other 2 posters feature your father-in-law and your psychoterapist asking the same question.

Why didn't you invest in __________ goddamnit?

To get the ball rolling:









Very, very low hanging fruit:



Psychoterapist is curious:

I think the photographer told the kid to look into the camera and tell off his dad. I'd call that look "I dare you to slap me."

This is a really lovely ad campaign for Poles.

I bet Poles are already pretty invested in Poland. They have to reach out to other groups to expand their market share!

But that's what makes it such a great opportunity, you don't need money to invest in Eastern Poland! A mere $10 is enough to purchase majority shares in a major bank with several goats.

From what I understand the campaign is aimed at UK where Poles are the second largest minority nationality after Indians. Also here's the ad at a bus stop somewhere:

"phphphphphphpht"? this is what you're going with?

you sure?


"Shut up and eat your rat burger," comes my barbed reply. But the words are ashes in my mouth. Ignoring the untold potential of investing in Eastern Poland has relegated my family to a pauper's grave. I weep as I choke down a half-eaten ham sandwich with a shoe-print on it.

I don't know what exactly is the font's name but What The Font told me that Etelka Medium is the closest for "Why didn't you invest...", Etelka Light for "Eastern" and Etelka Bold for "Poland". It's not perfect but very close so if you have a huge collection of fonts it will work quite well.

If you don't have a huge font collection then just use light and bold versions of a font with no serifs and it will look good enough.
