WHO WOULD DO THIS?
"If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of The Mighty One ...now I Am become Death, The Destroyer of Worlds."http://www.halloweencostumes.com/blog/p-915-diy-puppy-monkey-baby-costume.aspx
I don't see why everyone is getting so worked up, this is obviously a servant of the Outer Gods.

About

Puppy Monkey Baby is a hybrid dog-monkey-human creature shown in a Mountain Dew advertisement broadcast during Super Bowl 50 held in early February 2016. Online, many expressed displeasure with the creature, claiming they found it disturbing and distasteful.

Origin

During Super Bowl 50 on February 7th, 2016, a commercial was broadcast in which a bizarre creature with a pug dog's head, a monkey's torso and a human baby's legs delivers a bucket full of Mountain Dew "Kickstart" sodas to a group of men sitting in a living room (shown below). Within 24 hours, a YouTube upload of the commercial gained over 9.9 million views and 2,700 comments (shown below).

The same day, the @MountainDew[3] Twitter feed posted an animated GIF of the creature performing "The Dab" dance (shown below). In the first 24 hours, the tweet garnered more than 3,000 retweets and 2,500 likes.


Meanwhile, actress Mindy Kaling tweeted "I don't need to see no dog monkey baby centaur creature," gathering upwards of 2,700 likes and 530 retweets (shown below).

Also on February 7th, comedian Patton Oswalt posted tweets joking that the commercial made his "brain shut down" and that the advertisement as "already being used in ISIS recruiting videos" (shown below).

I mentioned in the forums that this ad feels like it's trying to be kinda like those "Weird ads" you might have seen on something like 90s to early 00s MTV. Of course though I think ad campaigns like the early PS3 ads showed that these "weird for the sake of being weird" ads are effective in the wrong way.
