Being a linux nrrd, I love pengiuns, so how could I not love this ad. Its some Estonian post-coldwar icecream ad, yummy!
Thanks to Patrick via Boing Boing for that one.
Update: Make sure you check out this one as well. Totally surreal.
Well - I dont know if I have any right to comment anything on this page
but beeing a Finn I have certain knowledge about Estonia and Estonians,
because they live on the other side of the Gulf of Finland some 80 km
south of Helsinki, The Penquin Ad must have been made during the last
face of the cold war period. The TV activities started quite early in Soviet
Union - at least some 2 years before Finland - but since the Finnish TV was
constructed in such a way that it was possible to be looked upon in Soviet
Estonia, the sov. officials had no choice but create their own Ad-TV. The
colourfull commercials of the Finnish TV irritated sov officials so much
that they understood they didnt have any other choice.
