I love the recent HSBC ads like the one above. I really like the way that these ads distill down the idea of subjectivity. I tend to get so wrapped up in my opinion, that sometimes I feel like there is no other way to see things. Maybe part of that is NYC rubbing off on me. Maybe it is just my “type A” personallity shining through. I have a tendency to tongue lash drivers who I don’t like, and public figures that irk me (Lil’ Wayne). But I have tried to force myself lately, to take the high road (or the low road, depending on where you stand, Ha!), and be sympathetic to the idea that there are 2 (or more) sides to everything. So, next time you hear me talking about how so-and-so is super lame, or about how such-and-such, is the crappiest thing ever, feel free to remind me that I am an HSBC customer, and that I’m trying to be more open minded.
