|
|
Someone pointed me at a link that showed the picture I'm going to try to post here. It was an attempt by a Brazilian ad agency to come up with an ad that wouldn't offend anyone. The product they're selling is a lubricating gel ala K-Y.
When I got the joke, I almost hurt myself laughing.

Warning: I said it before in the subject, but I'll say it again - the subject could offend some people.
There. You're now half an octopus.

Hmmm. That is, as the ad text claims, definitely a very powerful lubricant.
I'll bet the modeling fee for that assignment was astronomical. If true product performance was being tested, that is.

Do you mind if I post a dirty joke that should serve as an explanation to anyone who is having trouble figuring it out? _________________ mwalimu

Think of it this way: I was warning you in advance, so you were forewarned. And "Forewarned is half an octopus."

Loosely Put, I bet it was very "cheap".
