The alternative to complaining about using stock would be for an ad agency to spend money on hiring a photographer.

Well, for what it's worth, I contribute to both iStock and Shutterstock, and have never seen anything like these. Of course, I don't go looking for them, either. I must say, however, those were pretty gawd-awful.

My contributions are wildlife, nature, and landscapes. Thankfully he didn't find anything objectionable about my work. ;)

Sorry, not for me. The ads weren't particularly entertaining and the gratuitous swearing was just annoying. All in all, totally underwhelming.
