Here’s the latest in a series of shocking fake ad campaigns that have been popping up on Muni buses. The text reads: “Fartine Bakery & Cafe. Wait in line for five hours to buy a fucking donut.” Someone should smash the windows of that place before they sell any more pastries.

This would be more effective if Tartine Bakery actually sold any “fucking” donuts.
whoops, you missed the joke
Did you take off your pants?
makes as much sense as not selling tartines at a place called Tartine
Except that they do sell tartines…
according to their menu, they serve 1 croque that could loosely be called a tartine
If you go to Tartine, you’ll see that they sell a variety of open faced sandwiches, mostly savory. The food is amazing and the prices are quite low. Although, the lines are indeed horrible.
The problem with these is they’re just not very funny. Only a 6th grader would think words like “cum” and “fart” are substitutes for an actual punchline.
Fart is a funny-ass word. Funnier than a lot of punchlines.
This sort of “guerilla” shit is evidence enough to assume that the “creative” behind this and many other asinine efforts alike, are engineered by otherwise useless, and unemployed turds.
Actually… almost fair criticism. The “five hours” and “donut” bits count as, eh, poetic license, no?
Why would anyone spend the $ to produce these and place them on the muni system?
So we would do exactly what we’re doing now…
Yeah, I like the idea, but I have to say that for the amount of effort evidently put into them, I wish they were more clever (not that I could come up with anything better, but still).
I like the idea better than the execution, but I DO like the idea.
Whoever this is, wrote “F”ARTINE as a joke, as well as a way to cover their ass from getting sued by the real shithole bakery you big dummies. Same would go with that “Du Beers” one to, I believe. Du Beers, still less impressive…..
People don’t wait in long-ass lines for shitty pastries.
Are you kidding? People will wait in long-ass lines for all KINDS of things that suck, dude. Popularity != Quality. Most people have terrible, terrible taste.
