I first came across Jolly Pong at the end of last year. Some friends and I were sorting through some rubbish when a bag of Jolly Pong fell out. The name instantly amazed us, unfortunately, being in the rubbish, the snack itself wasn’t given chance to. They looked like Sugar Puffs in a little bag, and me being an expert in the scripts of the east, reckoned they were Korean.

Still the name stuck and as time went on I began to think more and more of the tasty snack that could have eluded us. Whilst doing some research for another website this week, I came across jollypong.com (trust me, there was a relationship!) and the aptly composed tune that plays when you visit the site. Man, that’s a tune.

I dug a little deeper and found this amazing Jolly Pong advert too…

Jolly Pong! I absolutely want to go to Korea and try some now!



News this morning is of the Australian quit smoking advertisement that has got parts of the world all in a frenzy. Here it is…

People aren’t stressing so much about the message, but more about the stupid rumours that ‘the production team really made the boy cry by taking his mother away from him’.

MANURE!! Look at him! He’s clearly an actor. The whole thing is PR, PR and more PR! And bloody good PR too.

Toughen up, people.
