Having released ads with zombies, ninjas and woodsmen in recent weeks, Honda and RPA have finally unveiled the furry centerpiece of their new Civic campaign—a spot with a monster shopping for clothes. The ad aired on Glee last night, and frightened people across the land. Here's a sampling of the reactions on Twitter:
• "What's up with this new honda civic commercial? What is that thing supposed to be?"
• "W.T.F. is the hairy character in the Honda Civic commercial??"
• "What the fuck is this hairy-where-the-wild-things-are looking creature doing driving in the Honda Civic commercial?"
• "Why the Fuck is there an ewok in the Honda civic commercial?"
• "The new honda civic commercial w/the furry critter scares the absolute shit out of me guaranteeing i'll never buy a honda."
