i don’t know why i’m qualifying all these idiotic comments but here it goes;
the letters are real as in, duh they are cyrillic, yea you know? RUSSIAN, the words are gibberish. has not a damn thing to do with webdings, msfont or any other shit. and what the fuck does photoshop have anything to do with it.

i think it’s a pretty clever ad.

or, you could drive yourself to the closest gas station, buy a lottery ticket in your drunken stupor and win half a million dollars.

Your life could wind up changing for the worst if you drink and then get behind the wheel.

Hehe, being Russian myself, its funny to see how some letters used. Irony that its harder to read what is written here then for non-russian people, because they associate with different letters.

(for example, I read stylized “v” as “ts” and “R” as “Ya”

Yes, unless I’m crazy, that’s my font. It’s called Worker Poster and it’s now available again for free download at my new website:

WorkerPoster

Yes, they’re not real Cyrillic letter forms – the font was meant for English language posters making use of Communist Era propaganda poster style, as used in the advert.

Cool to see it used in such a clever way.
