Ad Nut

This ad is about frustrating instructions, but it's not from Ikea

New brand platform for Kit Kat asks stressed modern humans to 'Snap out of it'.

This is the second ad that Ad Nut has written about today that's from Australia and riffs on a certain Swedish furniture brand (see "This ad discusses soft stools, but it's not from Ikea"). Ad Nut is not complaining, because this new Kit Kat campaign from J Walter Thompson Sydney is also very enjoyable. 

The TVC launches this week on pay and free channels, supported by VOD, Social (Facebook), static OOH and digital OOH. Here's a couple of posters:
