It's political correctness. A bloody awful disease that you sent across the Atlantic!

Seen that add a dozen times and all it made me do was reach for the remote control to turn over the TV.

anybody who found it unsettling must be the biggest wuss in the world.

Agreed!

You know what I find disturbing?

Whatever is happening in Outsider's av.

I second that,
I find penile injections very disturbing.

I've seen it... it's not even a good ad.

I find the notion that you're wasting your life unless you're playing the X-Box insulting.

Because everyone knows that PlayStation 2 kicks ass.

Bah !

If I'm ever bored and am seeking amusement, I'll go and have a look at the ASA's (Advertising Standards Authority) website. Some gimp even complained about a bra advert because it showed *shock horror* a woman in a bra !!!

The url is www.asa.org.uk - then click on Adjudications on the left in case you're interested.
