What IS this? Did they just pull some random picture of a girl and edit a martini into her hand?
What the hell is she looking at? And she looks, incidentally, like she's been taking more than  a couple of martinis. And that's what teenagers who start drinking for the first time always go for, of course... the martinis. Dang this dumb ad.

I almost feel bad that I have Firefox 3 and Ad Block Plus.   I don't get to see ads anymore on webpages.

Like I said, I almost feel bad.   But I don't!!

Wow, that does look really stupid. It looks like she's lying down or something! Maybe she's got some sort of special anti-gravity martini or something? Confused

She really has that, "...why NO, ossifer...it's just an 'olive water washdown' in a funny glass..." kind of look...you know what I'm talking about...the look she gives about an hour before calling Mommy & Daddy about her new 'bracelets' and their impounded car.
 
In a way, I almost wish kids that WANT to drink, or NEED to experience being drunk would have the pleasure of doing it the 'old fashioned way' (and I'm NOT talking about raiding daddy's liquor cabinet, 'cause he marks the bottles and can tell if his booze has been diluted) - the way some of us did it...by making Welch's 21-day grape wine. I know the subsequent puking sessions helped me steer clear for a short time.

Necro bumping, but yeah that picture does look fake and like others have said I really doubt a teen who is sneaking booze is gonna bother with making a martini. They'll probably just take swigs out of the bottle like I did at that age. I only did it a couple times though since the stuff I tried was nasty as hell.
