Advertisement DP


 
Have you ever been stuck in traffic so slow that people are walking past you?  That’s what comes to my mind when  I think of “rush hour chicago” traffic.  This image relates to anyone who has experienced terrible traffic.  The kind of traffic that feels pointless to be on the road, which is exactly what the advertisement was attempting to convey.  The question at the bottom “WHAT’S THE RUSH?” is there too flip the I do need to enjoy life more switch on.  I assume the company that made the advertisement’s message is why waste your time in traffic when you could be enjoying a few drinks with friends, for most people this would be considered Logos.

Someone might also respond to the image in an emotional manner depending on their prior history with drinking.  Maybe someone that has had alcohol poisoning or they have just been very sick off of whiskey in the past so they no longer drink it. What about someone that has received a DUI in the past or that has been hit by a drunk driver they may have a very negative reaction to the image.  On the positive side it may stir up a few good memories with a few friends you haven’t seen in a while, these responses would be considered pathos.
