That's No Yolk

One of the Freakonomics guys muses here about what the next great advertisement platforms might be, now that eggs and barf bags are taken. What I find interesting is that U.S. Airways doesn't have a problem giving people the idea that barf bags are used so frequently that it pays to advertise on them.

The ads I really hate are the ones piped in to elevators, including on little TV screens. I never thought I would yearn for the days of Muzak.

Or the ads, plainly directed at women, on the inside of bathroom stalls at restaurants, rest stops, in malls, etc. Intrusive, plus, these have the bonus of being pretty low end, which, from time to time, at least makes them amusing, I suppose.
