Oh, well, this is just gross. Pattex Glue released the [saltiest posters ever conceived](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youll-swear-by-them). The geniuses behind this seed worked for [DDB](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cargurus-latest-ad) Germany. I guess the Chief Creative Officer had his underlings come up with this idea. Obvious there was a premature release. Here are the jerk offs that created this mess:
