tampon adverts

[orinoco77]

Ok, I'm not being funny, but what the fuck??

First we had the new Tampax that "glides", now we've got "lubricated" Lillets. I don't even want to think about that. What's next? Toilet paper adverts that tell you how much crap they remove? I swear, there are some things that should not be advertised on what they actually do. That's what the cute Andrex puppy is for. That's what the Churchill's dog and the random Admiral are there for. It's also what all the cereal characters are there for. These things just don't sell well otherwise. Why, oh dear god, why, do people think that female sanitary products are any different?

The girls who read this are going to crucify me, aren't they?

Oh crap.

Crucify? I happen to agree with you. After all, if we don't know what the bloody [1] things are for, why would we buy them?

"Woohoo!" and "Ugh!", in that order. That was a mental image I didn't need :/

/me is off to the pub to try to forget such matters.
