  “AIN’T” ???

  Well, then maybe Peter would step in and tell us more.

  By the way, at AdBlogArabia, we accept to post ‘unpublished works’, but we like to tell readers.

  Hi Peter, while I find the visual pretty interesting and attractive, my comment was about the use of the word “ain’t” which is not considered proper English. Furthermore, I do not see how the line links to the image of a tire kabab. Hope this helps.

  Dear AERO, i dont have to remind u that we r living in kuwait actualy the client will run it only in arabic for his own reason, and the slogan used is to hit michelin tires cuz they used a slogan in kuwaity arabic تبي تواير أو تبي ميشيلين ( you want tires or michelin)so we thought its nice if we said تبي يوكوهام أو مشوي (you want yokohama or barbeque) hope this will clear everything.
