Ads We Love: Staples' copy cat

Sure, I have a rather dark and twisted sense of humor, but that doesn't mean I don't have an appreciation for the cute and adorable things in life. For example, I love the Staples commercial below where an office worker uses a "copy cat" in place of a color copier in order to save money. Unfortunately, the copy cat's ability to perfectly copy an image leaves much to be desired. This is another one in a long line of Staples' "Easy Button" commercials, most of which I can take or leave, but this one stands out for me. First of all, the idea of a cat "paw painting" is very funny, and second, I love how the cat really seems to be taking his task seriously, focusing intently on his work and not letting the conversation between the two humans distract him.
