Oops: Apple's Latest Billboard Features Phallic Design

[artifex]

The golden age of Apple marketing has been dead since “what’s a computer”

I missed that one, but it just doesn't seem to have the ring of "it was a really good paper."

I'll take an iPhone Micro!

 

[Plutonius]

It must be the micropsia lens on the upcoming iPhone 🙂.

This needs to be on a billboard in GTA VI

Welp, it is Miami.

It doesn't help that MacRumors "POINTED Out" the Subliminal image. For Pete`s sake, let people use their imagination 😀 lol

 

[turbineseaplane]

It certainly looks like something ... and "Scuba Diver" isn't high on the list.

 

[HMI]

Crack marketing team strikes again.

Did they ever actually leave the city of Weed, CA.? I never heard what became of them.

On computer screen it probably looks completely different because of the rgb color gamut vs the printer cmyk color gamut. That’s why you have to preview cmyk using the printer color index before sending to printer. 🙄

Shame on you, Tim Apple! What a pervert!

 

[newyorksole]

just when I tried to get that off my mind… they’re everywhere!

 

[Blackstick]

I lived in miami for 30 years. It’s all about 🍆 down there. This’ll be fine.

satanic symbology hidden in plain sight. Reminds me of what disney does.

That’s what happen when they don’t higher people like me, if I was on the team my D would be bigger.
Huge, humongous

Stan doesn’t need to hide it’s in your politics, and your homes.
He is what the world cultivates. The drawing of a d will not turn your son gay, technology has no will of its own.
It’s flesh bags that gives it purpose

Consumed on an Apple TV.

Apple TV app sucks for tv shows. Autoplay is so 2011

"Sorry Mr. Cook, but it's...it's the iPad's fault!"

 

[d5aqoëp]

Apple’s marketing & design team are so pure at heart….. wait a minute!!

The full Freud quote, as I understand it, is "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Which means that other times it's something else."

 

[Jetscreamer]

Apple just pulled an Elon.

 

[MallardDuck]

"Sorry Mr. Cook, but it's...it's the iPad's fault!"

Or, “You’re holding it wrong” ?

 

[noodledog]

I mean.... I saw it before I even read the headline. And I'm nearly 50.

The more I looked at it, the less it looked like a D. But the initial glance inspired it for sure.

And agreed: even if you don't see it, it's a terrible ad; the graphic effort isn't impressive at all. I don't get the aim.

And after reading, reminded me of this from Silicon Valley:

 

[Hammerd]

Is there such thing as an Apple ad with white peoples?

Phallic? An octopus does look like it is getting fingered but not seeing a Phallic.
