POS EKSPRESS


As we can see, the argument by Pos (M) BHD on its Pos Ekspress service saying that "Dijamin Sampai Esok" which means the delivery will take only 1(ONE) day. Somehow, take a look at the 2nd picture:
BUT.... "ke destinasi terpilih sahaja".... that means only selected places will have that privilege. Well.... it is a Content Fallacy to me. The argument :"Dijamin Sampai Esok" was so eye catching but somehow, the main point: "ke destinasi terpilih sahaja" was so tiny. Spending some times analyzing the argument, you will find dubious premise.
This is what actually happened to me recently. A person posted out the item using Pos Ekspress, but somehow it took 4 days to reach me. Kuala Terengganu - not "destinasi terpilih"?

SKIN

It was a very creative commercial as I can say. Good job Swatch! But, I don't really see what was the advertiser trying to convey. A Swatch watch in skin color? Or that's the new watch from Swatch which is just the time showing parts that is wearable onto the wrist. It will be a bad arguments to me, which i consider it as a Content Fallacy. Different people will have different perception when they look at this commercial.

SNOWING~~~~


I was wondering what is this commercial all about until the end..... "Get free coffee for the rest of the year". Alright it is a claim on getting free coffee. But what caught my attention is the company under the right corner, Statoil which is an oil and gas company. I would say it is a violating of principle of rational discussion under Relevance because I can't relate the coffee with an oil & gas company. I am still wondering what is this commercial all about besides feeling pity for that man.
:p It was a good commercial for someone who had a bad morning, i guess.
