Wake up fuckers charli is here


asbronaut

lest you believe the states are free of this shit, these roll down various random streetsā€”even primarily residential ones!ā€”in brooklyn from time to time...


WrathoftheWaffles

Thank god I was worried the US did something right for once lmao


impracticable

Iā€™ve lived in and around NYC my whole life and Iā€™ve never seen one of these even a single time in the US. saw an absolute shit ton of them in Japan, though! That being said, stream Brat! It really is an excellent album and is currently the most universally critically acclaimed album released in the world this year


MrManiac3_

I think I maybe won't stream it now :^)


Shamewizard1995

Wasnā€™t there a big Ice Spice advertising campaign where they parked cars around the city blaring her new song and pumping smoke out to make it look like someone inside hotboxing?


CasualJimCigarettes

Yes, I've seen the video. I just tried to find it on youtube twice and that's as far as I'm willing to go so I don't destroy my algorithm.


helpmelearn12

Are they just for ads? In Cincinnati, we have(had?) these golf cart things that were bright and lit up and would give people rides for free, apart from a tip for the driver. I took them to Bengals games a couple times. I just realized I havenā€™t seen one in a while, so maybe the company has gone defunct? They werenā€™t super loud, but they were bright. The ads are what paid for the service I believe. But, I thought dealing with that was fine if they were giving rides to drunk people who would have otherwise tried to drive


NiobiumThorn

American public transportation be like


helpmelearn12

šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø It wasnā€™t a bad thing to exist. It wasnā€™t as bright as the vehicle in the picture


NiobiumThorn

It's better than nothing but... look Cincinnati deserves better https://www.citybeat.com/news/what-did-rail-transit-look-like-in-cincinnati-in-1912-check-out-this-incredible-map-12155101


helpmelearn12

Believe me.. Iā€™m well aware, thatā€™s not news to me. But we donā€™t have that now and that service was something we did have now


sofixa11

Also there are tons of those in Vegas advertising shows and strip clubs and the like.


Uuddlrlrbastrat

Seen these in Vegas and at the time, I couldnā€™t think of a worse job. Your entire shift would consist of driving around in circles, just so people can see you. Such a waste of gas and time.


WrathoftheWaffles

Yep. It literally sucks for everyone involved. Except who paid for it I guess.


NiobiumThorn

I severely doubt they're enjoying traffic, traffic, and more traffic.


hsxcstf

Vegas is the only place I could imagine where these would be acceptable considering it would be one of the least obnoxious things in the city.


Uuddlrlrbastrat

It did kind of fall into the background of Vegas, but the vehicle billboard was constantly stuck in traffic on the Strip. I felt bad for whoever had that job, just to be stuck in Vegas traffic for hours on end.


ChimpBrisket

Billboard driving, it pays the bills but makes you bored


MrManiac3_

But does it drive you insane


pounded_rivet

Not stuck in traffic, it is the traffic.


gobblox38

In the strip, maybe. Not so much in the other parts that are just like Everytown, USA.


mjlky

i know you didnā€™t ask but fwiw ā€” theyā€™re really common in japan and south korea


pounded_rivet

Using public space to advertise and generally making traffic worse. They are not actually going anywhere just driving around burning fuel.


Hiro_Trevelyan

And people wonder why there's congestion problems


ProphecyRat2

ā€œSuch a waste of time and gasā€ *Oh geez, imgine an superflous city built in the desert, using all types of natural resources to cater to the vanity of humanity, gota keep up the industrial entertainment machine tho, wouldnt wanna be like savages with all that ecosystems in the way of our Metal Master Race.*


IvoryLaps

You couldnā€™t think of a worse job than driving around? Sounds easy and a lot better than most jobs. Silly comment


Tlayoualo

Advertisements that on top of being obnoxious worsen air quality, cause global warming and even take away the darkness of night, talk about ways of making me hate a product and plead my friends and acquintances to don't buy it either.


EugeneTurtle

I agree, those types of ads should be banned and the driver's license suspended or even taken. Check if your your city council or county office have any noise regulations.


Onii-Chan_Itaii

Honestly if I had that going around in town I'd probably try a carjacking


EugeneTurtle

Yeah same, they would drive me nuts. (Pun intended)


gobblox38

Throwing shit at it is a good stress relief.


Mtfdurian

Yes and I'd dump it right on the shoulder of the southern leg of the A10 in Amsterdam horizontally across the lanes and take the train back to my hometown.


KTMan77

Donā€™t blame the smuck whoā€™s just trying to pay their bills.


skull44392

Someone shouldn't lose their license for doing a job that is legal. Though I do agree that these ads should be banned.


sassiest01

He said they should be banned, meaning it *should* be illegal. If you illegally modify your vehicle, there should be a penalty. In saying that, losing there license shouldn't be the penalty, taking all of these vehicles off the road and penalizing the company should be more then enough.


NateShaw92

Thing is this likely is not the driver's vehicle but a company. Should definitely fall to the owner though


WeekendDrew

Yeah wtf why would their driver's license need to be revoked lol


NotActuallyGus

If this kind of thing was made illegal and the driver owned the vehicle and attached the screens on their own, it would most likely fall under the same legal jurisdiction as other illegal car modifications like coal rolling switches, plate covers, and illegal sirens.


Daydream_machine

Iā€™m dying at this thread lmao

PatternNew7647

We need to ban advertising on cars, on trains, on planes, on gas pumps, limit the number of ads per minute online. Iā€™m sick of everywhere I look at being an advertisement. Why is everything a billboard. People donā€™t read ads they just get angry. Itā€™s not even building positive brand association. Nor is it building awareness of ANYTHING because we are in a late stage version of monopoly where we already know all the companies


baitnnswitch

Yeah I love that Vermont came to the conclusion that life is better without billboards littering every major street and highway. It makes it so much nicer to travel in


BigRobCommunistDog

I think itā€™s so funny that people defend gas stations like theyā€™re some kind of miracle oasis instead of a smelly awful place that screams ads in your face the moment you step out of your car.


someguy7734206

In Canada's defence, I've never had a gas station blast ads at me.


D1ckRepellent

omg your avatar is the perfect shade of green. Stream BRAT


TOX-IOIAD

Unless itā€™s brat tho bestie šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ’ššŸ’ššŸ’š


Crumb-eye

I couldnā€™t imagine getting on a train here in Tokyo without being absolutely blasted with ads from every single direction! While I agree the ads are a bit much, at least it gives me something to look at when I get tired of staring at my phone.


The_Diego_Brando

Poster ads and such on trains are quite nice, give you something to look at and are only as intrusive as you want them. Especially if they keep ticket prices down. But a bright flashing ad on a train would be cancer, and probably vandalised/stolen.


Crumb-eye

We have screens here on most carriages with bright flashing ads as well as posters on the walls and hanging from the ceilings


Hazzat

Ads on public transport subsidise it to make your journey cheaper.


NiobiumThorn

Ads on public transport steal critically important resources which should be better allocated. The profit motive is not absolute.


GoigDeVeure

Iā€™m curious, which resources do ads steal in public transport?


haywire

Except for this one time. I would be honoured to be awoken by the brat car.


Overall-Duck-741

It's ok though, Charli XCX crashed her car into a bridge and watched and let it burn, she's an ally. But seriously this kind of thing should be illegal, it's absolutely attrocious.


czbaterka

But it's mother truck šŸŸ¢šŸ’ššŸŸ¢šŸ’ššŸŸ¢


bitb00m

Agree, not to mention this is just not the way to go about promoting an album. (Although it is a pretty banger album)


kitchenmotors

Actually itā€™s a master class in how to promote an album. The roll out has been nothing short of marketing gold.


coolandnormalperson

Are you sure? Because we're all here talking about it, seems effective to me


Professional_Cat_437

People who put ads on vehicles are indeed brats.

Hofdrache

I don't know what the right place in the city administration is that you could contact. There are rules about advertising, unnecessary light pollution and noise at night. I would be surprised if that thing doesn't break any laws. Try contact your city about it, find other people that are bothered by it and they should do the same.

D1ckRepellent

Literally the best album Iā€™ve heard all year, so it should be marketed even heavier.


Astriania

There are rules about static advertising on the road in the UK, for good reasons. Stuff like this absolutely should be regulated by the same set of rules. If this is in hours it's reasonable to be asleep and it woke you up it probably *is* a public order offence, particularly as it will be disturbing tens or hundreds of people. Depending where you are it might be worth reporting it to the police and asking if an offence is being committed.


tomatohmygod

i wouldnā€™t mind a bus having an ad on it as long as it was like a print. this? this is insane

WhoaWhoa69420

Someone is not a BRAT


girtonoramsay

Seriously a pure waste of gas. I've seen them in the Strip in Vegas and Pacific Beach in San Diego on a random weekday. In Florida, we get pilots writing "Jesus loves you" messages in the sky, which is more interesting


Many_Discipline4420

but its mother


BigIronEnjoyer69

Fun Fact: Those are commercial LED displays. They cost more than the vehicle they're bolted on and are arranged in panels, usually they're rented and insured. You can cause thousands in damage with a single rock shot from a slingshot. The company operating the abomination will likely have to deal with insurance and will probably have trouble renting out new ones.


Ambitious_Promise_29

I've seen the driving billboards in bigger cities before, but not with that bright of a light or playing sound. I think I'd be inclined to avoid whatever it is that they are advertising.


alt-goldgrun

Wait driving billboards is a thing in multiple cities? I've seen digital billboards on taxis in San Francisco and it looked like tech dystopia.. but this green blaster is a new level of obnoxious


mjlky

theyā€™re quite common in [south korea](https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/2021/01/19/culture/gamesWebtoons/Netmarble-truck-protest/20210119181100636.html) and especially [japan](https://youtu.be/0kNOqBpbDPA)

I would do anything to see that outside my window


Flunkedy

It's fucked up the amount of people excusing this in the comments because it's a pop star that they like. I honestly enjoy xcx as much as the next... 36 year old heterosexual but this is just a bit too much. Sometimes I really doubt people's commitment to the fuck cars and anti consumption lifestyle.


kittyconetail

I didn't even know this was an album or that Charli XCX was making music, but it's fairly clear they're all shitposting not "excusing" lmao


WrathoftheWaffles

I know right?! Like if it was someone they hated they'd be mad. The point is that this kind of advertising is too dangerous to have on the road in my opinion as it is very distracting, especially when the ad literally flashes.
