      I think the ad was great, the fun you could have with that toy and how it looks so nice and...wait, it's an ad for burgundy grape flavoured mints?

      Not only is it disgusting, disturbing and despicable, but a HUGE marketing fail!

      Really? How many people want a stuffed animal to lick their titty anyway?

      Yeah, I'm going to run right out and buy some of those so I can have a stuffed kitty lick my titty too. :rolleyes:

      What the heck kind of people are they targeting anyway? :confused:

        Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

              For a minute I thought you stuck your foot in your mouth once again! At first glance, I thought that I read itty bitty titties.

                Your all missing the obvious, its a fruit flavored estrogen tablet that causes spontaneous milk production in either sex. The obvious hybrid pedigree oriental cat immediately sensed this and put out its tongue in anticipation. the English translation was totally wrong due to the plethora of variations in the Japanese language.

                A totally straightforward commercial that should have been aired when the Superbowl was on! Once they fixed the translation. The guy was merely demonstrating how tasty they were.

      I thought that at least, that was the most original Ad I have seen coming out of Hong Kong. That is especially since the extremely tough educational system is accused of stifling creativity. But then, I found out that the ad was made by Australian.

    Getting back to the topic...

    What do you think about this Ad? Funny? Disgusting? Shocking? X rated?

    I think it's dumb. It's the kind of commercial that could convince me to buy one of their competitor's products instead. Wouldn't be the first time that's happened.

    I don't think that the Asian school system is to blame for lack of creativity as evidenced by the Bob sapp commercial shown above.

    Would the West make a commercial like that with Mike Tyson? No.Western schools produce sheeps as artists.

      I don't know who Bob Sapp is, but not many companies would want Mike Tyson as their spokesperson. Convicted rapists aren't real popular or influential here. :rolleyes:

        but they're not that creative. The Bob Sapp commercial is more creative because it completely ignores social taboo. That takes creative courage from the part of the artist

    I stand corrected. One of the few disadvantages to seldom watching TV, I guess. That's disappointing to me. I would stop shopping at Footlocker, except I don't shop there anyway.
