These hilarious student campaign ads are the greatest thing you'll see today

"Yeah I've used Photoshop before, I'll do them"

16 April 2018

Student newspapers, eh? Without a doubt, and there are no exceptions to this: shit. Lots of silly haircuts with ideas above their station, writing about absolute nonsense and designing everything like they’re having some sort of childhood early-onset meltdown.

However, sometimes (and I know I said ‘no exceptions’) they have the capacity to bring unbridled joy into our lives. As they have done today, with the discovery of a treasure chest of campaign ads from a unnamed student newspaper, that are unadulterated genius. I am in love with these posters. I love them so much I want to marry them.

There is so much to love:

1. The boy who has stolen a bottle of Fanta but is still queuing up for it

2. A lad talking about the dangers of drinking whilst drinking

3. The fact he also has a can in the other hand

4. “were gonna get u”

5. Every single thing happening on that peculiar sports day

6. The oven is not on, therefore it is not a ‘hot oven!!!’

7. Actually I don’t think I like anything about that last one

Of course, there’s always the distinct possibility that these aren’t real - they seem too good to be true, if you ask me - but the fact remains: they are great.

If they are real, then, sheesh. Using Photoshop is so easy - I can knock out quality work in a matter of minutes, there’s absolutely no excuse:
