Coke has been giving families what they really want for Christmas. Over 11 million Filipinos have left their homes to find better opportunities abroad and many have not seen their families for years. This film shows the raw human emotion of families reunited. It's disarmingly heartwarming and topping the viral charts for most shared.

These were created by artist Neil Wax as a comment on consumer culture and the value judgements people place on feeling "good" vs. feeling "bad". I love the way feelings are expressed through cleaning products. Cleaning is much more value-laden than you might think. It was once a major source of pride to have a pristine home. Now there's greater pressure to have a full life, not just a well-kept house. People who are meticulous tend to hide it, so they're not labelled obsessive, or worse, considered to have no life.

Walk of Shame - Harvey Nichols

An alternative Christmas spot. I particularly like the "pie at bus stop" scene. Check out #walkofshame.

Luck is an attitude

I couldn't agree more. Make your own luck. Create your destiny. If something doesn't sit right, change it.
