Deodorant/Mouthwash Birthday Ad (Joke/Proposed)
At someone's (a young man, say in his 20s) birthday party, his friends gather around, but not too close (noticeably keeping their distance somewhat), and gift the birthday boy with his gift from each of them, one after the other. And each present he opens is exactly the same: either deodorant or mouthwash, all the same brand. And each time he opens a gift, he starts to resign himself to the message his friends are trying to send him. Then the announcer says: "Even your friends won't come out and tell you you have body odor/bad breath. Give yourself a gift: the gift of fresh scent/fresh breath every day."
