Default New Mr T Snickers Advert
Don't know if anyone else has posted this already, but the new Mr T Snickers advert has already been banned.

However it's up on the Guardian website and gave me a few laughs, even if it is deemed "politically incorrect".

What do you all think?

Mr T Snickers ad pulled for being offensive to gay people | Media | guardian.co.uk

A close friend of mine worked on that strategy. They never intended to release the advert it was always going to be 'pulled'.

They made it, released a few stories surrounding it being anti-gay and waited for the PC media to get hold of it, which the soon did.

The result: everyones talking about it and showing it without the company behind it having to pay a single bean to have it aired.

You have to admire them for that one

That's hilarious - and a very cheeky strategy. I just wish the whole PC crap in this country would blow over and we could enjoy ads like this for the laughter of the general audience. Someone can always find a hidden message in something if they look hard enough - I just wish they'd stop looking!
