These Annoying Millennials Actually Have an Important Message for You

Seventh Generation and 72andSunny Do Switcheroo to Promote Bobble Bottle Brand

Editor's Pick

This new ad for Seventh Generation, created out of the brand's newly appointed agency 72andSunny, features scenes of the kind of free-wheeling, life-loving beautiful Millennials that have descended on advertising like a pestilent swarm -- so much so that perhaps you'd be tempted to click away or change the channel very, very quickly. But on closer examination, you'll realize it's a fake promo for a faux bottled-water brand, Once. As the young people in the ads drink away and have a ball with piles of the brand's empty vessels, a sarcastic voiceover belies the ad's real message:

Once is now. Once doesn't think twice. Once never looks back, never thinks ahead. Once knows the world's just a theme park that closes tomorrow. That's why we drink tomorrow today. No consequences, no regrets. Someone else can clean up our mess while we live for Once. Who gives a sh*t about the future? At least we're hydrated.

The ad then segues to the lines, "Time to end single use plastics. #endthetrend," after which Seventh Generation's reusable bottle, Bobble, takes center stage on screen.
