| − | This is one of three known ads featuring the music of [[Boards of Canada]]. Commenting on the ad, [[Boards of Canada]] explained that they did the ad out of respect for [[wikipedia:Chris Cunningham|Chris Cunningham]].

He also knows we'd break both his legs if he did." | + | This is one of three known ads featuring the music of [[Boards of Canada]].
