304: Out of date advertising

<p>The boys drink and review a chai latte stout from Schlafly, then discuss out of dates ads.&nbsp;</p> <p>You've probably seen the headlines. The basic concept is "ads that are not acceptable today." But why are they unacceptable?&nbsp;</p> <p>In some cases, the old ad is playful, and we're too uptight to go along with the joke.&nbsp;</p> <p>In other cases, there were cultural assumptions in the past, or a different understanding of the science, that don't apply today. Does that make them offensive?&nbsp;</p> <p>Some of the ads are just plain creepy, but in some cases, the very act of finding something wrong with the ad seems to implicate the critic, not the ad.&nbsp;</p> <p>Overall, maybe we just get offended too easily these days.&nbsp;</p>
