BankWest - Did You Actually Pay Someone for This?

bank_kittens.pngBankWest (Australia) has one of the weirdest ads ever, with these three kittens singing a largely unintelligible song that includes the improbable line "Don't panic! At least you don't have to pee in a plastic box"

WTF? Litterboxes have what to do with banking? Back in the old days, a bank would give you free checking to make you happy. When I was a kid, they gave you a free toaster (although nobody ever really knew what that had to do with banking either).

The bank calls this part of a happiness project. Nope, not happy. Just add interest to my money, stay open late, and give me free checking. That makes me happy.

via adrants, who notes that the kittens are scary, like furry robot gremlins.
