If ads are a virus, where's the vaccine?

INT, AD AGENCY MEETING ROOM, DAY

SENIOR EXEC: Okay. Brainstorming session. What's this ad for again?

JUNIOR EXEC: Uh... a chicken restaurant.

SENIOR EXEC: Like KFC?

JUNIOR EXEC: No. It's some Portugese thing.

SENIOR EXEC: Ooo. Exotic.

JUNIOR EXEC: Not really. It's just a chain store.

SENIOR EXEC: So... Any ideas?

JUNIOR EXEC: Well, I uh... I was thinking we could do like a parody of those nicotine patches?

SENIOR EXEC: Mmm...

JUNIOR EXEC: You know -- "Our chicken is so addictive you need a patch."

SENIOR EXEC: Hm.

JUNIOR EXEC: You don't like it?

SENIOR EXEC: It's missing something.

JUNIOR EXEC: Oh. Like what?

SENIOR EXEC: Strippers.


(Link goes to YouTube. Ad is real - we saw it during South Park.)

So, I didn't just dream that?!
Nando's is already off my radar because practically everything on the menu is centred around chicken, but I thought the ad a bit tasteless and off-target for Australian TV.
