At the Advertising Agency…
“People, Saudi Arabia has hired us to come up with a new Official Slogan for their country. Let’s start with some brainstorming, okay…”
“This one’s easy.”
Go ahead, James.”
“Saudi Arabia: Die, Jews, Die.”
“I LIKE the rhythm, James, but I’m thinking we need to go more positive, people.”
“Okay: then how about “Saudi Arabia: Jew-Free, Always”?”
“Ralph, that IS a step in the right direction, but let’s think wider, people.”
“Just brainstorming with this, but how about “Saudi Arabia: No Woman Drivers Here”?”
“I kinda like that one, Bob, but we probably need to be more inclusive.”
“Inclusive?”
“Yeah. But in a way that doesn’t include gays, modern women or other religions.”
I got one — and it already has a song to go with it!”
“I’m feeling excited now, Frank: tell me.”
“Saudi Arabia: Whip It Good”.”
“Uh…it might be hard to get the song rights on this one, Frank, but I like your holistic approach.”
“Man, this is fucked up, Trevor. I mean, Saudi Arabia? And we’re supposed to find something good to say? I mean, how about “Saudi Arabia: We’re A Shit Hole, But We’re A Rich Shit Hole”?”
I understand your frustration, Nate, but this is our JOB: we are Professionals. Again, people: we want positive, okay?”
“I got it!, Trevor!”
“Yes, Alan?’
“How about “Saudi Arabia: Praise Allah, We Have Oil”?”
“Frankly, I think that’s as good as were going to get today. Good work, people, and wish us luck on landing that Iran Slogan contract…”
I am Laslo.
