Everyone hates ads, but sometimes they get so bad they transcend to amazing painful cringe. These copywriters probably thought they were being clever or funny, and no one had the heart to say it was a bad joke. Just like in a failed tweet, there’s a thin line between funny and horrifically embarrassing.
Here are some ads that probably embarrassed businesses into bankruptcy.

Bad ads can be funny, but they can also be painfully embarrassing or even offensive. Whether through poor judgment, tone-deaf messaging, or sheer awkwardness, these ads prove that even big brands can make big mistakes. Let’s hope future advertisers learn from these disasters!
