@ragingloli do not be ridiculous. you know as well as anyone that in the colonies, the creators would be sued, and probably even jailed.
I will just chalk that up to an uneducated utterance. We may be sue happy in Yankee Town but a law suit on those lines would be tossed out on its rump (to be polite) if it ever got pass the laughable stage, especially when there are far nuttier stuff in the media than that these days.
I didn’t find the commercial particularly clever. Not enough left to the imagination.
Why would there need to be?
@ibstubro Guy I Almost Slept With
I do not know what to feel about that commercial, still cannot determine if it was a backdoor insult on my intelligence. One hand is trying to make sex look like such a great even that you should always be prepared to have a ”ticket” to rent the ”Magic Sheet Ride”, and the other hand say it is so common a $10–15 dollar pizza you can get the horizontal mambo with some gal you hardly know and certainly not your girlfriend. I was thinking of the guy, why are you agonizing, just go get another pizza and go to the computer lab and find another blonde. Then to say slept with, when there is no sleeping. If it is something so great why be ashamed to call it what it is? Why not say ”The guy I almost boinked, screwed, humped, banged” or say what most would at the pump or the diner; “f***ed”.
I don’t know if this Durex commercial aired, but I LOL.
I saw that one before somewhere, I just can’t remember. When I saw it the first time it was about controversy and I thought how silly. It was condom balloon animals simulating what many want to do with the condom anyhow, it is not like it was real, more like a cartoon than anything else.
@Zaku The modern American sensibility allows sexiness and implied sex but not explicit sex.
Rather stupid, like wanting to drive the car but hating the exhaust.
Others just prefer not to be subjected to sexual content they didn’t ask for, and television ads are basically random assaults of random loud attention-demanding content, so that makes a lot of sense
That happens a lot in today’s media in other areas no this one is no different.
When was the last time HC posted a question that wasn’t ridiculous?
If the question was dubbed pure fluff it is totally ridiculous, but those are loved here more than any real question.
@flutherother Sex has rarely looked more dull and unappealing.
It is no longer a trip to Disneyland, it today has the appeal of a trip to the self-serve car wash ~~~
