[Discussion] Anyone else think that 'White Wall' ad on youtube is super weird?


I'm sure many of you have seen it before watching some photography video. It has a jaunty piano piece playing as it shows a greying fifty year-old man with a Canon film camera in his hand, sitting on a couch with photos on the wall behind him.He thoughtfully responds to an unheard question, "...my first photograph? Well, I was eight years old and..."suddenly a chipper, yet shy, 25 year old woman leaps onto the couch beside him, nuzzling him with a loving Eskimo kiss before looking guiltily away from him"...and it was of the girl next door" he concludes with romantic satisfaction.Anyone else think it's super weird? Assuming she was even alive when he was eight years old she would have been an infant - but she has to be at least a couple decades younger than he is. I normally would let this go, but this ad has been playing before youtube videos for like, six months. It bothers me. via /r/photography http://ift.tt/2BjKUzx
