NOT A COP OUT
Search: Freeze! NZ Police’s most entertaining
recruitment video
This light-hearted police recruitment video from Auckland
features actual cops, from the police commissioner
to a new recruit. What’s more amazing is how much
effort was put in to reflect the racial diversity of the Kiwi
police force, and their commitment to “being the safest
country.” But in all honesty, this video is so fun to watch
that we wanna be a police officer when we grow up.
BAA BAA RAD SHEEP
Search: Diesel — Say No To Uncool Wool
Diesel’s artistic director, Nicola Formichetti, has
declared war on the ugly Christmas sweater. He comes
up with the tagline ‘Say No to Uncool Wool’, but can’t
settle on the campaign’s central motif until he sees a
sheep, which he decides to dress in Diesel threads. The
campaign also includes a tongue-in-cheek documentary
on how to dress a sheep.


STORY (^) CHERYL ONG, WEETEE NEU & KI’ERN TAN
If the Hollywood celebs busted for sexual
misconduct had a #nofilter damage-control
playbook, it might read something like the lines
churned out by Celebrity Perv Apology Generator.
The site mocks the #sorrynotsorry mea culpa of
disgraced predators-in-power like Harvey Weinstein,
Donald Trump, Louis C.K. and Kevin Spacey. From
memory lapse (“I do not recall the events...”) to the
transgression-trivialising “boys locker room talk”,
these excuses compiled by a journalist sheds light
on the clichés oft-used by these accused abusers.
Have fun matching these real-life-inspired non-
apologies with their real-life culprits.
seven sections where you can view
artworks like paintings and lithographs, all of
which show different issues children have faced
and the environments they’ve lived in from the
1900s to the 2000s. Unconventional parenting
tips, anyone?
