Manipulative

I remember a horrible anti-acne product ad because of one particular line:
"And you don't kiss. No way."

This is what these advertisers are throwing at insecure spotty teenagers. "Your love life will not exist if you have acne at all. We just happen to have some cream here, and we say it gets rid of acne. Do you want some, or would you rather be a sad, pathetic, lonely, boring, ugly loser for the rest of your natural life?" Vultures.

PS - The line was said in a joking, light-hearted tone.
PPS - I'm sure it wasn't meant to be taken lightly.
