Yahoo.. How dare you!

Retro this and retro that. Yes we're in a time of retro and retro is fashionable. The 80's have made a comeback. If I wanted to get a new (old) pair of Jordans, uh, excuse me AIR Jordans I could if I wanted, and I have. Go into any shoe store and check out the “old school” because it’s back and trendier than ever.

Places like American Apparel and Urban Outfitters accentuate the fact and open the availability of fashion from past generations. In clothing this is fine and all, but never did I think I’d see the day that Advertisements took a step backwards. I’m not talking about let’s poke fun at ourselves advertisements, I’m talking real life try to appeal to people advertisements.

When I say take a step back I mean it is difficult to make certain styles appealing again. I have yet too see a certain style make it’s return, that style is the style of the 90’s. Yes you know the style. It was a colorful time, a time Spud McKenzie and Saved by the Bell. Think about those old 90’s ads with kids and the high tops wearing bright buttoned up shirts.

NOW-

Who did this… YAHOO! Yahoo, how dare you? Their new and current ads look like something out of 1992 when I watched Saturday morning cartoons.

If you answer yes to 3 or more of these then it is from

the 90’s. Big Sunglasses, Bright Colors, Bubbles, Big Dogs, Bad Font.

You know what… just take a look for yourself. OH, and also their new slogan is about making the Internet YOURS. Just look… (these are actually from 2009).

Does anyone else see this!? I feel like I'm taking Crazy

Pills and the doctor is Yahoo. A shiny guy with high tops skateboarding with his shirt off... really? Who does Yahoo think they are? Who ever gave the OKAY with these ads should look around at life.

Just because...
