V8 Head-Assaulting Ad

V8 Juice has, for as long as I can remember, used this same “I could’ve had a V8” shtick in their ads. Oh, but now they’re showing people literally hitting each other in the forehead for not drinking V8 juice in a de facto encouragement of violence against people who do not drink V8 juice. So it seems they are threatening us that if we do not drink their juice, violent attacks upon our craniums will result. And this is pretty serious here, because the health bullies already want to beat people up for not eating the “correct” foods, and this commercial (and the whole campaign) steps right over that line from nagging into physical assault, which we all know will lead to brutal violence perpetrated against normal people by vegans and vegetarians over dietary choices. Boy, you thought the drug gangs were brutal and violent; just wait until the health bullies start to get violent over what we eat (!!). It will be like a gang fight in the kitchen every day! (Just kidding. But some will probably start punching people in the head because of this. They already want to do it, and this might be just what they need to make them live out their violent fantasies over their aggressive dietary sanctimony. You’ll see. I guess it’s appropriate, then, that V8 is roughly the color of blood, huh?)

I can’t seem to find this ad online yet. Maybe they’re trying to hide the incriminating evidence of their violence-inducing message.

(Of course I am only joking here! V8 juice is really good, and we should be punched in the forehead for not drinking it.)
