    a friend of mine here in MX introduced me to this guy who supposedly has the "biggest agency in town" I was curious because all the ads I see around town are either rips, or pics of very famous people with a logo slapped onto it. (ex: Angelina Jolie / ad for Marias enchilada stand) not exactly but you get the idea. So i met this guy, went to his site later noticed literally 95% of its work was rips of something stateside, Im not talking just copying styles, im talking br3tt b@sh stuff, taking someone elses ad photo with his clients logo slapped on/over it and his watermark covering the whole thing. its crazy, and it seems to be the accepted norm here. this guys kid goes to pre-school with my daughter, I see him almost daily when we go to the school, hes so nice, I told my wife I hope he never asks me anything about design, because if im in the wrong i dont know if ill be able to contain myself.
