3. biteme | December 27th, 2007 at 8:25 pm
I do commend the fact that Paragon does so much work on these types of ads, but I really think this is horrible, unless there is something there that I dont see…
4. Moey | December 29th, 2007 at 7:39 am

7. Fred | December 31st, 2007 at 12:54 am
Why would you use an anti smoking ad to represent your agency???
And if you do why do a really bad anti smoking ad?
Burn it baby.

10. Fred | January 3rd, 2008 at 3:27 pm
Please please go and see how much fun me and my alter ego have had f*cking with Bitreme/Lions Rules/AVP/ Commenter/Amre’s Brain (Oxymoron) over the past 100 or so posts.
He’s such an easy target you can make up waht ever you like and he falls for it everytime.
LOL LOL LOL
11. Fred | January 3rd, 2008 at 3:30 pm
So Paragon why would you do an anti smoking ad to represent your agency????
12. biteme | January 3rd, 2008 at 7:18 pm
Excuses excuses then switch subjects so typical of you…
13. Creative Rules | January 3rd, 2008 at 11:31 pm

14. Fred | January 3rd, 2008 at 11:35 pm
You stay out of this Creative Rules this is my fight.
15. biteme | January 3rd, 2008 at 11:36 pm
Seriously you have issues, did you take your medication today?
16. Fred | January 3rd, 2008 at 11:50 pm
If you all want to find out why Biteme/Lions Rules/Commenter/AVP/Amre has so much time to spend on this blog go to post 44 on
http://www.adblogarabia.com/designers-wanted-at-objects-advertising/#comments
You’ll see he’s been replaced as GM for spending too much time on Blogs like this and has been kicked out of the creative department for doing crap like the cow ad giving birth to his udder.
LOL
17. biteme | January 3rd, 2008 at 11:59 pm
You’re seriously a retard…sorry got promoted to something and from what I hear the opposite is about to happen to you based on your JT 7 ad…and you’re one to talk, arent you supposed to be designing a business card or something.
18. kre8tive | January 5th, 2008 at 9:53 am
Oh boy.. this is fun!!!!
19. Moey | January 5th, 2008 at 8:51 pm
still crap
20. Creative Rules | January 6th, 2008 at 4:11 am
Not as crappy as this ad.
I’m trying real hard here Paragon but I can’t ad any value to this one.
Surely an anti smoking brief could deliver something alot better than this.
Sorry guys.

1. restless - “ Meaningless “ How could an anti smoking ad be meaningless? i think you are mindless.
2. hussein - The ad was suppose to look ugly and disgusting . . . Kinda like the liver of a smoker after 35 years of smoking.
Am glad i got the msg across. . . Even you freaks got it.
The TV production on this ad was just a “scech” not a finale product it was never broadcasted.
You hussein have seen the commercial coz you worked in paragon . . . and then you got fired ;( . . . no need to bad mouth something that wasn’t even complete.
3. kre8tive - “ a disgrace to the industry “ Yo sense you are so kre8tive show me an antismoking ad that you did
Waiting . . . . .
4. Fred - It’s very clear to me that you don’t know shit about advertising.
This ad doz not represent paragon you mindless freak paragon is the sponsor of it like 10 other companys had there logo on it as well. What you are talking about is self promotion ads . . . That was not one ok :p
5. Creative Rules - ” I’m trying real hard here Paragon but I can’t ad any value to this one. “
IT’S AN ANTI SMOKING AD .
Maybe you should try harder
The value is that smoking is bad for you and it will kill you idiot.
22. XX | January 8th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
Still crap ad from crap agency.
tray to do something better than this shit, go to http://www.adsoftheworld.com and see Anti smoking ads.
Your ad is ugly and doesn’t work and please don’t post your crap work here.
23. X | January 8th, 2008 at 8:50 pm
The only thing that’s scrap here it’s u my little hairy friend.
I can only be proud that you are comparing my ad to the ones in http://www.adsoftheworld.com
I will do something better if u do 1 antismoking ad and post it here hihihiii if u can dumb shit . . . Show me don’t just insult my work.
P.S. i didn’t post my work here
24. Creative Rules | January 8th, 2008 at 10:15 pm
Mohamed or Louai or X,
Relax.
The ad is rubbish for all the reasons that have been stated here.
Don’t take so personal…improve and move on.
25. X | January 9th, 2008 at 11:15 am
I have Improved thank u it’s been 5 years sence i did that ad
i would love for u to tell me that my work is “rubbish” in my face
and c how personal it will get
26. XX | January 9th, 2008 at 11:42 am
or quiet lol
27. Moey | January 11th, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Paragon needs to get laid
28. Kre8tive | January 12th, 2008 at 9:48 am
PARAGONE… that would be suitable name for this agency..
29. Louai Alasfahani | February 12th, 2008 at 3:02 am
we are sticking around and YOU my pedewan will be gone
30. Louai Alasfahani | February 12th, 2008 at 3:06 am
i will not comment on the getting laid part as i am getting some nasty ideas so i better keep them to my self.
31. kre8tive | February 21st, 2008 at 10:30 am
If this is the kind of work you are going to show off, then you should be ashamed of yourself (because THIS doesn’t justify YOUR TALKING which is TOO freaking MUCH…) I mean grow up LOUAI, you aren’t what you are trying to say you are. I’d rather quit advertising and sell shawarmas on salem mubarak street than create and post an ad like this one. Winning awards? You can have your KAAAs and SUMMIT, we need Cannes, Clios and LIAs, Hollow man:-)
32. X | February 21st, 2008 at 12:19 pm
kre8tive i don’t even think u r good for selling shawarmas and Salem Mobarak street wow wow . . . try Jahra first
I know u r Hollow . . . in the head :p
Post some of your Cannes anti smoking ad’s y don’t yaa or shut ur face
33. Louai Alasfahani | February 21st, 2008 at 2:04 pm
11. Louai Alasfahani | February 12th, 2008 at 2:57 am
well if you can do better why dont you show us instead of just telling us.
34. kre8tive | February 21st, 2008 at 11:17 pm
Louai X… why don’t you sell shawarma with your company logo on it, I think it would be better or add some of your crappy ads as wrappers? it’d be worth at least more than the usual 250fils.
Quit advertising. And Blogging. lol.
35. Louai Alasfahani | March 4th, 2008 at 12:26 am
